Academic lecture by Marek Nekula
The lecture presents Kafka's reception of Czech literature on the basis of self-testimonies and intertextual references. For the first time, a periodization will be outlined that is based on the different localization, orientation, characteristics and linguistic nature of this reception. In the first phase, the focus is on Czech national literature, as Kafka experienced it at grammar school in Czech. The second phase is connected with the mediation of Czech literature into German, which took place in his environment. The third phase is characterized by the reception of modern literature in left-wing magazines, in which Milena Jesenská, among others, published translations of his texts. These later also influenced Kafka's reception in Czechoslovakia for a time.
