Velvet Retro: Postsocialist Nostalgia and the Politics of Heroism in Czech Popular Culture - Worlds of Memory
Veronika Pehe
This innovative study develops the concept of “retro” to describe the nuanced and ironic depiction of the past as seen in Czech popular culture. It locates a distinctively retro aesthetic in Czech literature, film, and other cultural forms, enriching our understanding of not only the nation’s memory culture, but also the ways in which popular culture can structure collective memory.
