Povídky a satiry

Rate this book
Druhý svazek Spisů Františka Gellnera přináší veškerou povídkovou tvorbu tohoto dodnes čtenářsky oblíbeného autora, původně shrnutou v titulech Cesta do hor a jiné povídky (1914) a Povídky a satiry (1927). První vydání tohoto svazku Spisů vyšlo v roce 1927, od té doby vycházely z Gellnera pouze a jen výbory. Realizace opětovného vydání celého Gellnerova díla byla provedena z důvodu čtenářské nedostupnosti původní edice, přesto se nedočkala ze strany kritického ohlasu pražádné reakce.

About the author

František Gellner

27 books22 followers
František Gellner was a Czech poet, short story writer, artist and anarchist. His first poems are full of irony in Heinrich Heine's style. In 1901 he published his first collection called Po nás ať přijde potopa! (After Us Let the Floods Come!) in which he used especially sexual motifs without any embellishments. The next collection Radosti života (Joys of Life) shifted the point of view from subject to object and throws the disbelief more on society. The rhythm of the poems is close to vaudeville verses or chansons. Nové verše (New Verses, published posthumously in 1919) are not so pathetic as if seen from a distance with a lot of nonchalance. He also wrote satirical poems in Karel Havlíček Borovský's style which were published mostly in papers and journals.
