Soup for poor children in satirical magazines
Hemelíková, Blanka
The study is concerned with the subject of poor people and charity, in a "disharmonic" line represented primarily by satirical texts in satirical magazines and in other periodical´s humour departments. Satire is employed there to confront the humanitarian ideal with its practical implementation in real life. There is evident the radicalization in the satirical perspective from approximately the 1890s until the outbreak of the First World World. Particular attention is devoted to Jaroslav Hašek and Josef Lada. Their output demonstrates that the antithesis of ideal versus reality came to be newly manifested not in terms of socially targeted satirical criticism, but rather as an implicit trait of an absurd world, involving in the cases of Hašek and Lada their methods of slapstick comedy and motifs of black humour, without an explicit moralizing message.

The reception of the Manuscripts in satire and humour
Hemelíková, Blanka
Czech manuscripts were importantly reflected in humour and satire, the key issues being the cult and myth connected with the manuscripts and controversies in the battles for or against authenticity of the manuscripts. The local echoes of the mainstream of European Ossianism is brought to mind, too.

The subject of suppressed literature in Humoristické listy (1863-1873)
Hemelíková, Blanka
This study deals with censorship and humorous magazines in the latter half of the 19th century. We attempt to show the representation of censorship and the satirical struggle with the censors, using the example of Humoristické listy, in 1863-1873. We find protests against censorship and the ambivalent effect of censorship. Methodologically we are inspired by new research and its views on "the latitude in deciding how to maintain some free space for the individual at the side of the authors and how to assert the state's control at the side of the censors", and on "the limits of state censorship".

Arranged every five years at the initiative of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic Institute of Czech Literature, the congress brought together some 150 researchers from all over the world this year. Czech literature at the interface and the periphery deals with the personalities and forms involved in the occurrence of “otherness” in Czech literature: the boundaries of understanding “otherness”, problems of the emergence of “the other”, images of “the other” and the alternative cultural and geographical spaces of Czech literature. It looks in detail at authors who are neglected, not included or difficult to categorize, including Czechs beyond the borders. It also examines Czech-German, Czech-Austrian, Czech-Polish, Czech-Hungarian, Czech-Slovak and Czech-Jewish literary relations as well the “otherness” of particular works and characters, the context of Czech literature and translation, and the specifics of teaching Czech literature.
