Course objectives
Course description: From the perspective of literary history, the seminar maps the changes in functions, directions, styles and genres in Czech literature of 1770-1850, especially in the context of European literature as a whole. Emphasis will be put on structural dynamics and attention will be directed not only to literary "classics" but also to conventional literature which represents the "reception horizon" of a particular era.
