Worlds of Dissent

- Charter 77, The Plastic People of the Universe, and Czech Culture under Communism

About Worlds of Dissent

"Worlds of Dissent" analyzes the myths of Czech resistance popularized by Western journalists and historians, and replaces these heroic victory narratives with a picture of the struggle against state repression as dissidents themselves understood and lived it. Their diaries, letters, and essays convey the texture of dissent in a closed society.
