Abstract
The article presents a thread related to the artist’s frequent use of the subjective point of view of a wandering through the world soldier – recurrent in the songs by Karel Kryl – a Moravian bard, “troubadour of the Prague Spring”. Life on an exile, constant separation, longing and also uncertainty of what was left behind and what is yet to come – are in Kryl’s way a framework of existential issues shaping his songs. The article’s aim is also to point other theme dominants of songwriter’s creation, which allow him to articulate a full range of feelings – in its complicated multidimensionality, still with a clear presence of emptiness, loneliness, homelessness.
