In his lyrical and dramatic works, Otokar Fischer (1883 – 1938), one of the influential figures of Czechoslovak interwar drama and dramaturgy, occasionally touched also on social and class issues. He drew his themes from the ongoing social changes, treating a geopolitical cross-section of the Russian “October” Revolution in two of his seven dramas. In 1921, he wrote his polemical and multi-vocal drama Orloj světa [The Horologium of the World], adding to it his more opinionated allegory Otroci [Slaves] three years later. The two dramas differ from each other not only in their form and theme, but especially in the question of the acceptance of the Bolshevik revolution. Therefore, it is on these dramas that the gradual change in Fischer’s value orientation can be documented. This fully bilingual author of Jewish origin asks himself and the society questions like where he belongs as a Wandering Jew in the newly emerging social order and whether he could not only passively adopt sociocultural narratives, but also narrate them himself. By analysing the dramas Orloj světa and Otroci using the concepts of the German literary scholar Klaus Theweleit and the French religionist René Girard and focusing on everyday realities in the spirit of the Annales school, the author aims to answer the question of why Fischer’s narrative strategy changes over the course of three years.
