Il caso (azda) Posledná večera: libertà d’espressione e verità religiosa nel processo di democratizzazione slovacco
D'Amico, Tiziana
2011
Abstract
The article explores, through the case of Martin Kasarda’s novel (azda)
Posledná večera (1991) and the ensuing controversy and complaints of
public insult against the author and the publishers by some members
of the Slovak Parliament, the article explores the difficult process of
democratization in Slovakia during the period following the end of
the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic. The author focuses on the clashes
between two fundamental civic rights such as freedom of speech
and freedom of religion, and between culture and politics. The article
compares the Slovak case with other contemporary situations such as
complaints against Martin Scorsese’s film The Last Temptation of Christ
and the issue of Salman Rushdie’s The Satanic Verses.
