Title in English: Czech Problem Drama of the 1960s. In his monograph Czech Problem Drama of the 1960s, David Kroča (b. 1973), a literary scholar and educator at Masaryk University, focuses on a period that can in many respects be viewed as a turning point in the poetics of the original Czech drama. From the varied production of drama in the 1960s, which was rich in genre, he chose to research a specific stream called problem drama in which an ordinary dramatic conflict is substituted with an escalated confrontation of different opinions related to a particular problem. The introductory theoretical and context chapters consider the developmental tendencies in Czech drama as well as some important foreign resources. The core of the work consists of analytical and interpretative chapters which deal with the analysis of those dramas where the authors tackle serious existential problems and question social and moral responsibility.

Since the 1960s, nations across the “developed world” have been profoundly shaped by deindustrialization. In regions in which previously dominant industries faced crises or have disappeared altogether, industrial heritage offers a fascinating window into the phenomenon’s cultural dimensions. As the contributions to this volume demonstrate, even as forms of industrial heritage provide anchors of identity for local populations, their meanings remain deeply contested, as both radical and conservative varieties of nostalgia intermingle with critical approaches and straightforward apologias for a past that was often full of pain, exploitation and struggle.

Gibt es ihn noch – den Intellektuellen? Oder bleibt nur, ihm ein „Grabmal" (Lyotard) zu setzen? Ähnlich wie im Falle Godots in Becketts Theaterstück herrschen heute Zweifel an seiner Existenz und Wirkungsmacht. Zugleich haben jedoch die Umbrüche der jüngsten Zeit – beschleunigte Globalisierung, Pluralisierungsprozesse, Strukturwandel der Öffentlichkeit – in Verbindung mit Intellektuellenkritik und intellektueller Selbstreflexion neue Rollenmodelle entstehen lassen. Der vorliegende Band beschäftigt sich mit den Wandlungen im Handlungsrahmen, in der sozialen Rolle und in den Wirkungsmustern von Intellektuellen und diskutiert ihre Bedeutung in der politischen Öffentlichkeit seit den 1960er Jahren. Im Zentrum stehen Figuren, die am klassischen Vorbild orientiert blieben, das Wechselverhältnis von Intellektuellen und sozialen Bewegungen, rechter (Anti-)Intellektualismus sowie das Spannungsverhältnis zwischen intellektueller Autonomie und politischem Engagement. Recent upheavals have severely altered the scope for intellectual action. Many today are in doubt whether the intellectual even exists, like Godot in Samuel Beckett’s work. This volume sketches the changes in the social role of intellectuals and discusses their influence in the public sphere since the 1960s.
