Hlaváček, Karel (1874–1898)| Czech poet and critic. He was a leading exponent of decadence. His In the Small Hours 1896 is a series of masochistic dreams of a man who can see no value in the prevailing utilitarian society; these are couched in elegant, ironic language. ‘Hymn of Vengeance’ 1898 describes the planned revolt of an aesthete against the massed forces of bourgeois conventionality. |
