Many writers and publicists came from the group, including four extraordinary authors: Jiří Kuběna, Josef Topol, Věra Linhartová and Viola Fischerová. “Spring with those born in 1936” will consist of several mutually interconnected cultural events: Cycle of five literary evenings; Exhibition of art of Jiří Kuběna; Discussions of Those born in 1936.

So much more guilty, in the eyes of history, are those who have sacrificed the country’s spiritual future for the sake of their present power interests.“
