Abstract: [cze] [eng]
V roce 1953 umírá J. V. Stalin a několik dní poté i Klement Gottwald. Všeobecně se proto tento rok pokládá za počátek liberalizace stalinského režimu nejen v Československu, ale v celém sovětském bloku. Časopis Divadlo, zřízený v roce 1949 jako orgán Divadelní a dramaturgické rady, tehdy vycházel čtvrtým rokem.

Stalin and the Czech president Klement Gottwald died and that is why this year is generally identified with the first liberalization in Czechoslovakia as well as in the other Sovietized states.

The essay consists of two basic parts: the first one handles the historical context, both the social and in the area of theatre, resumes the history of the magazine "Divadlo" and shortly describes the theory and history of social realism unti11953. The second part focuses on the detailed qualitative analysis ofthe texts. The chapters about history show briefly the character of the theatre sphere which hinged on the policy ofthe state and the Communist Party. The magazine "Divadlo" was created one year after...
