A propos de cet article
Bratislava: Vydavatel'stvo ?asopisov Sväzu slovenských spisovatelov, 1957-1970. Small quartos (25 × 20.5 cm). Original staple-stitched pictorial wrappers; 40-64 pp. per issue. Profusely illustrated from photographs, drawings, colorful typography and visual poetry. About very good; occasional wear to wrappers; some discoloration or soil. 130 issues in 115 fascicles of the legendary Slovak arts and literature journal of the post-war period, published from 1956 until 1970, documenting the journal's broad cultural horizon, progressive outlook on art and literature, and its profound impact in communist Slovakia. After fifteen years of navigating the complexities of communist censorship, the journal was ultimately banned after the onset of the "Normalization" period following the repression of the Prague Spring in Czechoslovakia. Focusing equally on art and literature, "Mladá tvorba" was renowned as a site of free expression and experimentation, especially for art and writing linked to the Concretist movement. It maintained especially strong links to the literary group "Lonely runners" (including writers such as Ivan Lau?ík, Peter Repka, Ivan ?trpka and others). Other published writers included Jan ?trasser, Peter Repka, Tomá? Janovic, Vladimír Miná?, and many others.
