»Tak vás tu máme bratři z krve Kainovy…« Rok 1968 w czeskiej świadomości literackiej, historycznej oraz kulturowej
(Komisja Slawistyczna PAN, Oddział w Poznaniu, IFS UAM, Wydawnictwo PRO, 2014) Kowalska, Urszula
The main intention of the article was to find, introduce and analyze patterns that are present in Czech culture and that both: directly and symbolically pertain to a very specific period of a Czech history. My intention was to indicate several subjects, themes and motives, characteristic for the journalism and generation thoughts of this time period. I am introducing problems that deem to be fundamental for Czech philosophy of history and literature, and that enable interpretation of events of the year 1968, which can be treated as a breakthrough in Czech history. Amongst them, there is an afterthought over Czech faith and history, escape into privacy, the question of national identity, historical consciousness and responsibility, faith in identity-building myths. I was also trying to analyze specific ways of collective resistance shown on streets of Prague during first days after invasion.
