Karel Havlíček a Josef Václav Frič ve střetu o Ladu Niólu
Karel Havlíček and Josef Václav Frič in the center about Lada Niól

Summary/Abstract: The article interprets Uprímné mínení o almanachu Lada Nióla, written by Karl Havlícek in Brixen on December 23 and 24, 1854, in which Havlícek rejected the romantic tendencies of almanac initiated by J. V. Fric in the spirit of literary realism. The author describes how Havlícek’s criticism concerned individual authors and the contribution of the almanac. Uprímné mínení... by Havlícek could not join the discussion that began after the publication of Lady Nióla in newspapers and magazines. Only a narrow circle of literary actors from the 1950s could meet him privately. The author states that Fric himself distorted Havlícek’s criticism of his almanac when he reported it in his later memoirs (Pametí), thus contributing to the fact that Uprímné mínení o almanachu Lada Nióla was not yet considered in the history of Czech literary criticism in the place that Havlícek deserves.
