Abstract

The article concerns the problem of allegory in two Czech historical novels from the beginning and the end of the 60s of the twentieth century: Kladivo na čarodějnice by Václav Kaplický and Tovaryšstvo ježišovo by Jiři Šotola. Both novels are also considered to be important political ‘clearing accounts’ novels. Application of allegory as a method of reception allows us to answer the question about the participation of the reader in the setting up of allegory in the Czech prose of the twentieth century .
