Abstract

The paper attempts to introduce the work of Jiří Trnka, a Czech visual artist, who achieved international fame. It focuses on his concern with world-famous children’s books (e.g. the fairy tales by the Brothers Grimm, Hauf or H. C. Andersen), and, in particular, with English literature (Shakespeare and his Midsummer Night’s Dream or Lewis Carroll).
