In SEEJ 64.2, Laura Janda explores how Michael Ajvaz engineered his artlang, Yggur, to wield power over the protagonist of Lucemburská zahrada (The Garden of Luxembourg), showing the reader that potent messages can be embedded in seemingly random patterns. https://t.co/6f8zqIFwJW

Ivan Wernisch’s “highly idiosyncratic language that seems distantly related to an archaic form of Czech”; and Jan Lukeš’s Išhi language. The other articles in this forum examine Ajvaz's own artificial language, Yggur. See the issue Table of Contents: https://t.co/OHn0FgYQK2 (3/3)

Zbyněk Hejda’s “speech of death”; Ptydepe, invented by Ivan Havel and used by his brother Václav in one of his early plays; T. R. Field’s playful Krhút language, which is reminiscent of the language of Lewis Carroll’s “Jabberwocky”; (2/3)

The summer issue of SEEJ (64.2) features a forum that explores the work of celebrated Czech author Michal Ajvaz. Ajvaz traces the history of artificial languages in the Czech context. These include Svatopluk Čech’s “moon language”; Vladimír Holan’s poetic neologisms; (1/3)

While the introduction of online education might feel unprecedented, a look back at the history of a similarly new technology—instructional television in the 1950s—is revealing, while also highlighting key differences. Szabolcs László writes for SEEB: https://t.co/lzUbjmtd5f

We are happy to announce the publication of SEEJ 64.2 (Summer 2020). This issue features the 2020 AATSEEL Keynote speech, the 2020 AATSEEL presidential panel on the state of the field, and a forum entitled "Artificial Languages in Czech Literature." TOC: https://t.co/6f8zqIFwJW

In SEEJ 64.1, Lusia Zaitseva examines the memoirs of Nadezhda Mandel'shtam through the lens of childhood, which both reveals new facets of their complexity and accounts for more of their contradictions than previous modes of analysis. https://t.co/JCh7pJsQNc

Jason Strudler proposes a new model for interpreting Aleksei Kruchenykh's experimental poetic language "zaum" based on its description as “zero” by the poet in numerous texts from the late 1910s. Abstract and more: https://t.co/JCh7pJsQNc

Philip Ross Bullock explores Sharov’s sympathy for, debt to, interest in, and intertextual borrowings from Andrei Platonov, arguing that Sharov’s novel, The Rehearsals (Repetitsii), engages with the legacy of the early Soviet avant-garde. Full abstract: https://t.co/pq7K2FLEZi
