In honor of the 2018 centennial of Czech independence, philosopher of law Jir Prib n and award-winning Czech journalist Karel Hv zdala took the opportunity to examine key moments in Czech history from the ninth century to the twenty-first. Covering such a broad span of time allowed them to look into the past and question how Czechs have viewed their history at different points--and what that means for the Czech present and future. As contemporary politics drift closer towards totalitarianism, historiography from scholars and thinkers who experienced twentieth-century totalitarian regimes is more important than ever. In their spirited dialogue, Hv zdala and Prib n raise and explore these crucial issues, sharing subjects normally reserved for university seminars with the broader public.
Jir Prib n is professor of law at Cardiff University, United Kingdom. He is the author of numerous books in Czech and English, including, most recently, The Defence of Constitutionalism: Or the Czech Question in Post-National Europe, also published by Karolinum Press. Karel Hv zdala is a journalist and essayist. He has published more than thirty books of interviews, as well as written twenty radio plays, five novels, five books on the media, and two memoirs. Stuart Hoskins is a translator of Czech and Slovak into English.
