The Bohemian Bible: Important Early Literature of Bohemian Culture - Softcover
Synopsis
The “Gospel of the Moment” is the Bohemian philosophy. And this Gospel can be celebrated in a Bible. Collected in this Bohemian Bible are some of the early exploratory texts of the 19th century revival of Bohemianism. And some early 20th century expressions of the free life. Essays, poems, novels or literary wandering: various genres describe the essence of what it can mean to live bohemian. The Gelett Burgess Map of Bohemia 1896 is the most accurate cartographic portrayal of the Land of Bohemia that we can study. It shows the neighboring countries of Licentia and Vagabondia and Philistia. And it correctly shows that Bohemia borders the Sea of Dreams to the north. Terra Incognita lies close by to the south. But the most important aspect of Burgess’ map is that it shows no roads at all. And, as he noted, that is because every Bohemian must find their own path in life. That is the key to Bohemianism. We must all find our own way. The moral imperatives of Kant or any other cultural imperatives are all bullshit.
