Jaroslav Tůma Tomáš Jamník Gustav Mahler and Prague
czech music quarterly 1 | 2 0 0 7 Jaroslav Tůma Tomáš Jamník Gustav Mahler and Prague Dear Readers, As you have certainly already noticed, Czech Music Quarterly has been graphically reworked for 2007. We thought that the existing design needed freshening up, and I hope the new appearance of the magazine will give you the same pleasure that it has given us. The smaller format and more attractive paper should make for more comfortable reading. This issue of the magazine also comes with a free CD, containing pieces by six contemporary Czech composers, which means that Czech Music Quarterly is now a magazine not just to be read but to be “listened to” as well. The Chamber Music compilation is the fi rst in a series. You can read more about the whole project in the preface to the CD itself and so I here I shall just draw you attention to the article by Miroslav Pudlák, which is related to the CD and highlights some aspects of the contemporary Czech scene in composing. I would also like to remind you that you can order older numbers of Czech Music Quarterly – if we have any of the ones you want, we shall be glad to post them to you. You can fi nd a list of the contents of all preceding numbers at www.czech-music.net, and there is plenty of choice! And please feel free to contact us any time if you have a question or a comment – just write to the e-mail address [email protected]. -
Derek Sayer ANDRÉ BRETON and the MAGIC CAPITAL: an AGONY in SIX FITS 1 After Decades in Which the Czechoslovak Surrealist Group
Derek Sayer ANDRÉ BRETON AND THE MAGIC CAPITAL: AN AGONY IN SIX FITS 1 After decades in which the Czechoslovak Surrealist Group all but vanished from the art-historical record on both sides of the erstwhile Iron Curtain, interwar Prague’s standing as the “second city of surrealism” is in serious danger of becoming a truth universally acknowledged.1 Vítězslav Nezval denied that “Zvěrokruh” (Zodiac), which appeared at the end of 1930, was a surrealist magazine, but its contents, which included his translation of André Breton’s “Second Manifesto of Surrealism” (1929), suggested otherwise.2 Two years later the painters Jindřich Štyrský and Toyen (Marie Čermínová), the sculptor Vincenc Makovský, and several other Czech artists showed their work alongside Hans/Jean Arp, Salvador Dalí, Giorgio De Chirico, Max Ernst, Paul Klee, Joan Miró, Wolfgang Paalen, and Yves Tanguy (not to men- tion a selection of anonymous “Negro sculptures”) in the “Poesie 1932” exhibition at the Mánes Gallery.3 Three times the size of “Newer Super-Realism” at the Wads- worth Atheneum the previous November – the first surrealist exhibition on Ameri- 1 Not one Czech artist was included, for example, in MoMA’s blockbuster 1968 exhibition “Dada, Surrealism, and Their Heritage” or discussed in William S. Rubin’s accompanying monograph “Dada and Surrealist Art” (New York 1968). – Recent western works that seek to correct this picture include Tippner, Anja: Die permanente Avantgarde?

To be born high above the ground, almost within the reach of the sky, seemed in itself to promise an exceptional life ahead. Also his brother František and his sister Marie had their own special talents. František graduated from art school and made use of his artistic skills above all 3 as a restorer and conservator of church art objects in his homeland as well as abroad. -

May 30, 1968 Report on Statements by Ukrainian Journalists in the CSSR
Digital Archive digitalarchive.wilsoncenter.org International History Declassified May 30, 1968 Report on Statements by Ukrainian Journalists in the CSSR Citation: “Report on Statements by Ukrainian Journalists in the CSSR,” May 30, 1968, History and Public Policy Program Digital Archive, TsDAHOU, F. 1, Op. 25, Spr. 28, Ll. 128-134. http://digitalarchive.wilsoncenter.org/document/113086 Summary: P. Shelest reports to the CPSU CC about the observations of Ukrainian journalists inside Czechoslovakia during the developing 1968 crisis. Original Language: Russian Contents: English Translation C P S U C C In connection with preparations for the Days of UkrSSR Culture in the CSSR in May, a group of journalists from the Ukrainian SSR visited Czechoslovakia. They stopped in Prague, Bratislava, Brno, Ostrava, Hradec Králové, Banská Bystrica, and Košice, where they met and spoke with party activists, members of the press, television and radio employees, and the creative intelligentsia. The content of these discussions sheds light on the current situation, which is the backdrop for events now under way in Czechoslovakia. Some of the Czechoslovak comrades, when characterizing the general situation in the country, told our journalists that “Czechoslovakia today is reminiscent of a furiously speeding stagecoach whose horses are pulling it from whatever side they please. The tragedy of the situation is that the stagecoach does not have a driver. That's why no one knows where it will end up.” 192 It was also said that “democratization” now is reminiscent of an uncontrollable rock avalanche that no one is able or brave enough to stop. During a trip around the country, our journalists were repeatedly confronted by evidence that the KSC is occupying a passive, wait-and-see position, and that members of the party often are not even putting up a fight before conceding the political battlefield to people who not only are estranged from socialism, but are even outright enemies. -

La República Checoslovaca 1936 - «España en nosotros» / Czechoslovakia 1936 - Spain inside us JARMILA DOUBRAVOvá Western Czech University, Prague Abstract La guerra civil en Espaňa inspiró el eco en la cultura y sociedad checoslovaca de esa época. Especialmente los intelectuales de orientación de izquierda reaccionaron a lo que ocurría en España. El izquierdismo mismo tuvo carácter que más tarde aclaró Raymond Aron. Eso fue la vanguardia a la que perteneció por ejemplo el Teatro liberado de Voskovec y Werich, el teatro de E.F.Burian y también numerosos particulares de varias especialidades artísticas y grupos artísticos ( por ejemplo los surrealistas, los miembros del grupo „Devětsil“ y otros.) Mencionemos algunos ejemplos: „Španělskou zemi mám tak rád“- Tengo amor por España de Jiří Voskovec y Jan Werich con la música de Jaroslav Ježek, La Marcha española del compositor y artista teatral E.F.Burian al texto de František Halas, „Španělsko v nás“ - España en nosotros, canción compuesta por Jaroslav Doubrava al texto de Josef Hora, la caricatura de Adolf Hoffmeister creada para la miscelánea sobre el Teatro liberado en el aňo 1937, etc. La guerra civil en España fue el evento. Sus combatientes checos, voluntarios, tuvieron el signo de esta participación en los aňos cincuenta (prisión). En la época de la „dicha“ Primavera de Praga de 1968 ellos que sobrevivieron llegaron a ser representantes del nuevo corriente político (por ejemplo el general Josef Pavel). La participación en la guerra civil de España pasó a ser símbolo de la lucha por la democratización del país.
