He came from Kladno, and he called himself “a simple worker”. He started his creative career in the early 1930s with surrealist poems, later belonged to the left-oriented artistic and literary Group 42. Due to the Communist coup in 1948, he was banned from 1949 to 1957. In 1950, he wrote one of his substantive books of poetry → The Liver of Prometheus. He spent eight months in prison in 1953 for this “subversive manuscript”. For which, among others, he used the text by the Czech writer Ladislav Klíma and the short story By the Railway Track (→Medallions) by Zofia Nałkowska. At the end of 1950s, he gradually concentrated on artistic work and visual experiments. His visual poetry and collages won him world fame with dozens of exhibitions. His entire work was exhibited in the Guggenheim Museum in New York in 1975 and in other major Western museums of modern art. In the 1970s and 1980s, again, he could not publish except in samizdat or exile. In 1977, Kolář signed the human rights manifesto Charter 77 and while on a scholarship in West Berlin, the Czechoslovak government decided to force him to emigrate with no permission to return. He lived in Paris from 1980 to 1989, and afterwards he regularly travelled between Paris and Prague. From the late 1990s, due to his declining health, he stayed in Prague and spent his last years in a Prague hospital.","PeriodicalId":425657,"journal":{"name":"Handbook of Polish, Czech, and Slovak Holocaust Fiction","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123808769","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kafka graduated with a degree in law from Charles University in Prague in 1933 and worked as a lawyer and journalist. In October of 1941, he was sent with the transport of the Czech Jews to the Lodz Ghetto (Litzmannstadt Ghetto). Only 80 people from 1000 Jews survived in this transport. Kafka was deported from Lodz to the forced labour camp Skarżysko-Kamienna and later to Częstochowa where he was liberated in January 1945. After the liberation, he crossed the Tatra mountains to Poprad in Slovakia and joined the Czechoslovak Army Corps that was a part of the Red Army. In April 1945, he became secretary in the first Czechoslovak postwar government, established in Košice. From 1945 to 1954 he was an official in the Ministry of Industry in Prague. After a severe illness, Kafka retired in 1961. He concentrated on researching at Jewish Studies, German literature in the Czech lands (Werfel, Kafka, Brod, Weiskopf) as well as translating (Franz Kafka’s letters, Franz Werfel, Peter Lotar) and writing. His son Vladimír Kafka (1937–2005) wrote poems, on the topic of the Holocaust among others.","PeriodicalId":425657,"journal":{"name":"Handbook of Polish, Czech, and Slovak Holocaust Fiction","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115733672","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

żywych Żydów, Igor Ostachowicz

This is due in large part to the author’s strategy in presenting the subject, considered by many to be controversial, offensive, and inappropriate. Night of the Living Jews presents the fictional story of a Warsaw resident who becomes entangled in the history of the Holocaust as he is visited by living corpses of Jews exterminated during the war. By the conceit of the novel, they have remained all these years under the rubble and in the cellars of modern-day Warsaw, the inhabitants of an underground city. The story culminates with a scene set in Warsaw’s biggest shopping mall, Arcadia, where the main characters must fight for their lives. In this way, Ostachowicz’s strategy for representing history takes its cues from popular culture, most explicitly from the horror film Night of the Living Dead (1968), but there are also allusions to Tarantino’s Inglorious Bastards (2009) (Sobolewska, 2012). The motif of living corpses is thus linked to the notion of Jews who want not so much to avenge themselves (as in Tarantino’s film) as to change their future fate. The ludic aspect of the plot is reinforced by comic portrayals of Jews who cannot find their way in the everyday reality of a world dominated by commercial culture. Gradually, however, they give in to its charms (they go shopping, for instance). The writer does not shy away from the use of slapstick: in one scene, for example, a Jewish boy on a shopping spree loses his hand. The controversy generated by the novel is due primarily to its rejection of the prevailing form of Holocaust memorialisation, which is to say, the serious approach that people are accustomed to. It is this aspect of Ostachowicz’s novel, on its surface, that has elicited reactions of disgust and even outrage. On the other hand, by provoking readers in this way, the novel focuses our attention pre-","PeriodicalId":425657,"journal":{"name":"Handbook of Polish, Czech, and Slovak Holocaust Fiction","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128878967","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
