Czech literature in the first half of the 19th century between state and national censorship
Kusáková, Lenka
Czech literature and literary life in the first half of the 19th century were considerably affected by the censorship wielded by Austrian state power and its legal and organizational system, as well as by the Czech patriotic elite itself, which by using the tactics of prior censorship on Czech books and journals, attempted to avoid conflicts with the Hapsburg throne and thus to protect the space that had been gained to cultivate the Czech language, literature and science. This paper analyses several cases of such national censorship.
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".
Corporeality as an offense against public morality. Sodoma - a collection of poems by Jiří Karásek ze Lvovic and literary censorship
Hemelíková, Blanka
The paper reviews the literary censorship and the collection "Sodoma" by J. Karásek ze Lvovic, which was prohibited in 1895 and published after reworking in 1905, following the interpellation of the member of parliament Josef Hybeš. The paper follows the stages of the poet´s reworking and argues that the literary censorship may have had the positive effect on the poet´s work.
