Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Acknowledgements I would like to thank the staff at the Pamâtnik nârodniho pisemnictvi, the Narodni knihovna and the Ûstav pro Ceskou literaturu in Prague, in particular Lubos Merhaut. Administrative and teaching staff at the School of Slavonic and East European Studies (SSEES), University of London, have been generous in their support; I would like to thank in particular Carol Pearce, Martyn Rady and David Short. I am indebted to the lecturers in Czech at Cambridge and Oxford for their help during my four years of study at SSEES. Among friends who have given me much encouragement I would like to mention John Andrew, David Chirico, Michael Cooke, Radek Honzak, Rosalind McKenzie, Radojka Miljevic, Kevin Power, Kieran Williams and Tomâs Zykân. Without the unfailing support of my family, both material and emotional, I would never have had the opportunity to study for a higher degree.
