The Shakespeare Festival at the National Theatre in Prague in 1916
Original language description
The article explores a connection between significant socio-political events and the choice and interpretation of Shakespeare's plays in the Czech Lands during the Great War. It focuses on the Shakespeare Festival held at the National Theatre in Prague 1916. A chronological perspective is used to argue that Shakespearean productions at the time acted as a specific reflection of the Czech world of politics. The article furthermore attempts to trace specific aspects of selected productions of Shakespeare's works (e.g. I, 2 Henry IV, Hamlet, Macbeth, etc.) in the Czech national context. The research is based on data derived from surveys of archival material (period reviews, theatre journals, posters, almanacs, and periodicals). The researched documents represent a necessary complement to any understanding of the crucial socio-political climate of the time as well as the original stage productions.
