Abstract

ORIG CZ

V originále

The book presents a history of the Department of English and American studies at Masaryk University (Faculty of Arts) in Brno. The narrative is based on the methodology of “oral history”. The narrator is Don Sparling, long associated with the department and a former Head. The first chapter covers the foundation by Professor František Chudoba in 1920 and the interwar period. The following chapters deal with three periods: 1945 to 1977 (Don Sparling's arrival in the department); 1977–1989; and the subsequent period down to 2000. The last chapter sums up the history of an important part of life at the department, the Gypsywood Players theatre group.

In Czech

Publikace vypráví o historii Katedry anglistiky a amerikanistiky FF MU. Vyprávění je strukturované a je založeno na metodě orální historie. Vypravěčem je Don Sparling, osobnost dlouhodobě spjatá s životem katedry a její bývalý vedoucí. První kapitola líčí vznik Anglického semináře v roce 1920 pod vedením profesora Františka Chudoby a pokračuje popisem meziválečných událostí. Další kapitoly se věnují poválečnému období až do roku 1977 (příchod Dona Sparlinga na katedru), následně osmdesátým létům a době porevoluční do roku 2000. Poslední kapitola shrnuje dějiny významné součásti života katedry, divadelního spolku The Gypsywood Players.
