Memory and landscape: The case of Chateau Jezeří

Abstract

There are places in the land of Bohemia where lines of force of will intersected historically; of good or evil will, depending on the historical context; they inscribed their stories in the face of the country. This paper presents a case study concerning one such story (unfinished so far), one of the most striking examples of the practical application of the term (socialist/capitalist) progress; it also shows the paths that this country has taken.
