1946Best.-Nr. 5303Quarto 29.5x21 cm. 81 pp. In unusually fine condition. Nicely preserved. Czech postwar avant-garde. Original mimeograph with illustrations photographs and photomontages. Printed as a manuscript and reproduced thus by Fechtner. A dadaist-spirited anthology of texts viewing the period of German occupation through a prism of nonsense and ridiculing those leading the way towards the bright future. The first doctored photo shows a group of people standing outside a building with a plaque that reads "In this house Pankrac Perla the founder of Recesse Is Still Snowing did not live." Pankrac Perla is the collective pseudonym for the "recessiste" or Mischief-makers an informal student group consisting of Ladislav Rychmann who later directed the first Czech musical Starci na chmelu painter and composer Frantisek Chaun the actor Josef Chvalina film historian and grandson of Jaroslav Vrchlicky Myrtil Frida and translator Jiri Becka among others formed in the late 1930s who drew partly on the humor of writers such as Jaroslav Hašek or Jaroslav Zak and partly on dadaism and surrealism. Czech scholars have attributed the influence of the Mischief-makers on the post-war generation of Czech intellectuals. The Czech language is the only language in the world that uses "recession" or economic decline to also mean joking irony and satire and a number of Czech linguists trace this second meaning to the group's creation of a specific type of humor bordering on the edge of slapstick absurdity and nonsense. The first story here Skurda v okupaci Skurda During the Occupation continues the adventures of the group's favorite protagonist Jordan Skurda first introduced in their 1937 novel We're Going to Bodele - Escape from the Sahara. The Mischief-makers were criticized by their elders for attacking authority of all kinds - parents teachers and officials - and the Czech fascist press seized upon their writings and pranks to criticize them as products of the Czechoslovak educational system. Petr Koura Literary noviny. Yet the fascists weren't alone: criticism of the group's influence on the Czech youth and their failure to take art seriously appears in the literary revue Kriticky měsiÄník in 1940. The humor collected in this anthology is unrelenting such as one letter to the Nazi ministry suggesting they ban senior citizens from feeding pigeons and put them to work; musicians too since violinists would could use their arm motions to saw wood with mathematical formulas backing up the claims. Another interesting contribution is the A Moment of Silence for the Final Congress of Coffee Tasters - in memory of the first "Dadaing" of Tristan Tzara - consisting of a three-page play with dadaists on rocking horses.
