The Representation of the Svojanov castle in the 19th and 20th Century Czech Literature
URBÁNKOVÁ, Soňa
The small town of Svojanov, dominated by a medieval castle, has become an inspiration for many authors, prose writers, and poets. The first references to Svojanov can be found at the time of the National Revival, and this literary tradition continues to the present time. The aim of this work is to document all available texts in which the literary image of the place was developed during the 19th and 20th centuries. In particular, the genres in which the given image was applied and how it changed in the context of contemporary literary discourses (emphasis will be placed on the dominant discourses of 19th-century romanticism, parnasism, realism). The available electronic resources (Caslin catalog, Retrobi database, ) will be used for the research and the resulting text will be provided to the Svojanov castle administration.
