Editor's Note:
Svazek soustřeďuje v úplnosti samostatnou prozaickou a dramatickou tvorbu J. Čapka (1887–1945) do roku 1930: povídkové knihy Lelio a Pro delfína, časopisecky publikované práce Živý plamen, Tři prózy, Podzim 1914a Chlapec, divadelní hru Země mnoha jmen a torzo dramatu Gassirova loutna, filmová libreta Lakomec a Moc pověry a konečně i prózu Stín kapradiny. V chronologickém uspořádání představuje Čapkovu cestu k vlastnímu epickému výrazu prostoupenému reflexí metafyzických témat, jejich tíhy a naléhavosti, i náznakovou přítomností autorova „druhého“ literárního domova, tj. činnosti kriticko-esejistické, tříbící Čapkův rozvažující styl a smysl pro lapidární postižení nadčasového prvku aktuálního (uměleckého) dění. Poprvé je tu tedy příležitost ukázat celek Čapkovy „volné“ literární tvorby, počínaje emancipací od prací psaných společně s bratrem Karlem. Prózy vznikající před první světovou válkou a v jejím průběhu tematizují konfrontaci nezajištěné, troskotající existence s proměnlivou povahou moderního časoprostoru. Střetnutí s avantgardní estetikou soudobých uměleckých proudů (kubismus, expresionismus, futurismus) rozevřelo v Čapkových raných prózách vějíř „figurativních“ možností: zachycují mnohotematičnost nové skutečnosti a její rozevřenou, ubíhající perspektivu v poukazu k všudypřítomné motivické řadě značící sebereflexi Čapkova tvůrčího úsilí. Jeho ústřední snahou bylo dospět prostřednictvím tvarových proměn k názoru nové zkušenosti, ke zkušenosti nového výrazu, k zážitku narativního a popisného slova-obrazu zachycujícího událost imaginativního vidění i s ní spojenou tíživou myšlenku. Dramatické útvary z 20. let zachycují Čapkovy pokusy o alegoricko-utopickou hru. Reagovaly – často i ironickou persifláží – na revoluční téma levých avantgard počátku 20. let, zpochybňovaly spásnost kolektivistického sociálního experimentu a apelovaly na individuální odpovědnost. Svazek uzavírá próza Stín kapradiny, sjednocující mnohé z autorových dosavadních tematických okruhů a tvárných postupů v myticko-baladickém podání údělu člověka.
