    The 'insectuous' brothers: Karel Capek's and Jan Svankmajer's avantgardism(s) and the limits of humanism

  • Original language description

    Jan Svankmajer&apos;s recent Insect (Hmyz, 2018) is a work of film adaptation which functions as both an homage to Karel (and Josef) Capek&apos;s problematic avantg-gardism and critique of some of the Capek brothers&apos; own compromises during the production of their play, From the Life of the Insects (Ze zivota hmyzu, 1922). In the light of Svankmajer&apos;s homage and critique, the article revisits Capek&apos;s avantgardism and seeks to recuperate some of the more radical, and easily overlooked, aspects in Capek&apos;s work in the early 1920s. It goes on to discuss Svankmajer&apos;s own career of multiple film adaptations, before concluding with a critical evaluation of his latest (and arguably last) Capek-inspired film, read within the context of Svankmajer&apos;s liberational cinematic project.
