These periodic transfers, during which many hundreds of works were removed from the Prague gallery, continued off and on up to the end of the nineteenth century.

The state of the once-proud Prague Castle collection was now bad enough in all conscience. The picture was further darkened by the numerous errors and blanks that had crept into the inventories in the course of time. Many of the best things had, of cousre, gone to Vienna. Many others had been sold to the Dresden Court and to Munich. But Professor Neumann’s research into the documents and catalogues of the past two centuries has made it abundantly clear that a large number of valuable canvases had in fact remained in Prague, unknown to the authorities.

Scholars may find this faulty cataloguing in Prague lamentable. But it is clear that, had the records been kept more carefully, many of these works would have shared the fate of the bulk of the collection, either under the Habsburgs or a few years later when the nazis occupied Czechoslovakia. Nothing of note was stolen from the Prague Castle collection after about 1860 for the simple reason that no one, either in Prague or elsewhere, thought there was anything left that was worth stealing.

When a detailed survey of the castle’s contents was ordered a few years ago, it was undertaken—at least so far as the paintings were concerned— more with the idea of listing what little was left than with the hope of any important discoveries. Yet discoveries soon began to be made. Professor Neumann and his team of archivists, restorers, and research workers traced the history of these neglected works back through centuries of conflicting catalogue entries. They subjected the canvases themselves to X-ray and ultra-violet photography, they removed overpainting and restored them, analysed paint samples and pondered over compositional patterns.

Агония и возрождение романтизма
Агония и возрождение романтизма

Романтизм в русской литературе, вопреки тезисам школьной программы, – явление, которое вовсе не исчерпывается художественными опытами начала XIX века. Михаил Вайскопф – израильский славист и автор исследования «Влюбленный демиург», послужившего итоговым стимулом для этой книги, – видит в романтике непреходящую основу русской культуры, ее гибельный и вместе с тем живительный метафизический опыт. Его новая книга охватывает столетний период с конца романтического золотого века в 1840-х до 1940-х годов, когда катастрофы XX века оборвали жизни и литературные судьбы последних русских романтиков в широком диапазоне от Булгакова до Мандельштама. Первая часть работы сфокусирована на анализе литературной ситуации первой половины XIX столетия, вторая посвящена творчеству Афанасия Фета, третья изучает различные модификации романтизма в предсоветские и советские годы, а четвертая предлагает по-новому посмотреть на довоенное творчество Владимира Набокова. Приложением к книге служит «Пропащая грамота» – семь небольших рассказов и стилизаций, написанных автором.
