| dc.description.abstract | This paper examines the political and moral stance of the Slovak writer, translator, dissident and activist Hana Ponická through an analysis of her appeal letter (August 29, 1977) written after a key act of repression: her expulsion from the Slovak Writers’ Union (SWU) (June 22, 1977). The primary aim is to contextualize this document as a form of civic resistance and self-articulation within the framework of communist cultural control in Czechoslovakia. Using a historical-literary analysis, the study situates Ponická’s complaint within broader mechanisms of institutional exclusion, surveillance, and punishment directed at nonconforming intellectuals. The article draws on accessible archival materials, including previously unpublished correspondence and official records, which allow for a more nuanced reconstruction of the events and their aftermath. By foregrounding Ponická’s own voice, the study contributes to a deeper understanding of dissent, gendered authorship, and ethical responsibility in Slovak literary history. The paper also contextualizes Ponická’s translations before and after the 1977 “annus horribilis”, highlighting the devastating impact her non-conforming activities had on her writing and translation. | |
