Abstract
The article analyses the press debate regarding Jaroslav Hutka’s song Udavač z Těšína, with a focus on both the objections against the author as well as Hutka’s defence. The arguments articulated in this debate function on two main levels: a formal and a personal level, the latter shedding light not only on the author’s motivations but also on his audience’s outlook. The analysis traces the shifts within the post-communist bardic discourse in the Czech Republic and the evolution of the relationship between singer-songwriters and the audience with respect to the perception and interpretation of the new post-communist reality as well as their own lives.
