On Democrats

Sold out

The presentation of the newest edition of Demokrati (published by Európa, 2021). Daniel Hupko, curator of literature at the Museum of the City of Bratislava, will talk with literary scholar and expert on Jesenský’s work Marcela Mikulová.

How was the novel received at the time of its publication? Who inspired the author to write the book? What parts of it are still relevant today?

The novel Demokrati (Democrats) was written by Janko Jesenský and was based on his personal experience with politics. Despite being a convinced democrat, this novel is largely critical and full of irony and sarcasm.
