Summary/Abstract: This article examines the normalisation era political cultural weekly Tvorba, its position in the field of official literary criticism since 1969, and above all its mutual relationship with the original literary supplement Kmen (1982) before and after its independence. It also examines editorial strategies used to introduce these periodicals into official journalistic discourse, including the publication of certain metacritical positions. One discussion on Karel Sýs’ denunciation text Dislocated at the Joints (Vymknuta z kloubů, 1988), for example, seeks to highlight the progressive themes and values of official literary criticism at the end of the 1980s, which increasingly presented itself as autonomous, and which would go on to find its place in the 1990s as well.
