SUMMARY:Kafka and Havel: Leadership\, Economics\, and Power
DESCRIPTION:At Hebrew University in 1990\, Havel made the bold claim that\, “I sometimes feel I’m the only one who really understands Kafka.” Where do these two minds meet and where do they diverge? Professor Leah Tomkins\, author of the ground-breaking book\, Franz Kafka and the Truths of Leadership (2024) will join literary scholar doc. Mgr. Zuzana Říhová on stage for a discussion about absurdity\, the economics of attention\, and the role of power in leadership.  \nTomkins argues that Kafka’s extraordinary foresight in understanding that power – including the power over life or death – often hinges on the ‘attention grab’ that distorts our personal\, social\, political and organisational relations. Havel too found himself in the seat of political power\, struggling with its ambiguous and delusive temptations. As leaders struggle with their own shrinking attention spans\, as well as with how to direct their supporters’ attention in an increasingly polarised world\, there are surprisingly practical ideas and tactics one can take from Kafka’s work\, which Havel claimed to understand so well.

SUMMARY:Eyal Poleg – The Great Bible as a Useless Book
DESCRIPTION:V dubnu vystoupí se svým příspěvkem v rámci cyklu Staročeský dýchánek Eyal Poleg (Queen Mary University of London). Přednášku v angličtině můžete vyslechnout 7. 4. 2026 od 17 hodin v dolním sále pražské budovy Ústavu pro českou literaturu AV ČR (Na Florenci 3\, Praha 1)\, vstup je zdarma a bez registrace. \nAnotace:The Great Bible (1538/9) is often seen as a monument of reform and authority in Tudor England. A detailed study of dozens of surviving books and manuscripts\, at times using scientific technologies\, will reveal hesitations and tensions in its creation and reception. Despite being mandated for each parish church in the realm\, the Great Bible was incompatible with Church liturgy\, making it a contested book which was required to be displayed but illegal to be read by most parishioners.
