The originality or worldliness of Czech literature? Magazine polemic in the period when the Májovci were appearing on the Czech cultural scene
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This paper deals with the situation in the mid-nineteenth century when periodicals of the day featured heated discussions about national literature and a broader European context. This period of Czech literary history overlaps with the appearance of the Májovci [the “May School”], more precisely precedes it slightly. The study is based on the relevant chapter in Ivo Říha’s monograph Možnosti četby. Karolina Světlá v diskurzu literární kritiky druhé poloviny 19. století [Possible readings. Karolina Světlá in critical literary discourse of the second half of the nineteenth century] (Červený Kostelec: Pavel Mervart, 2012).
