Piorecký, Karel ; Křivánek, Vladimír ; Charypar, Michal ; Fořt, Bohumil ; Hrbata, Zdeněk ; Ibrahim, Robert ; Koten, Jiří ; Sládek, Ondřej ; Sgallová, K. ; Šerlaimova, S. ; Berkes, T. ; Budagova, L. ; Čolakova, Ž. ; Galmiche, X. ; Grigorov, D. ; Melnyčenko, I. ; Procházka, M. ; Valcerová, A.
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. Discussions over “otherness” in Czech literature were divided into four subject areas. In view of the anniversary of Karel Hynek Mácha’s birth in 2010, one of the proceedings was called Resonances of Mácha. The studies included in this collection focus primarily on the work of poets and prose writers whose work forms part of Mácha’s legacy and derives inspiration from him. Another way to understand the importance of Mácha’s work is offered by contributions that place it in the context of European and particularly Central European romanticism. The opportunity also presents itself to consider the influence of interpretations of his texts on the formation of Prague literary studies structuralism.
