Bøker av Vladimir Macura

A keen observer of culture, Czech writer Vladimír Macura devoted a lifetime to illuminating the myths that defined his nation. This first book-length translation of Macura's work in English, offers essays deftly analysing a variety of cultural phenomena that originate, Macura argues, in the "big bang” of the nineteenth-century Czech National Revival, with its celebration of a uniquely Czech identity.
