Chandler Rosenberger at AAASS 2000 Masaryk's legacy could not be claimed by his political progeny, however, unless they overthrew his suspicion of Romanticism and revolution, for it was in such revolution that his children saw their best hopes for reshaping the masses. Masaryk was to be celebrated as the intellectual who had brought critical intelligence to the center of power, but had to be condemned for allowing bourgeois liberalism to stymie the continual revolution in the soul of the people. Although Vaculík called explicitly for the rehabilitation of Masaryk, inspiring the wrath of the Soviet press, his homage was not piety to a long-lost saint, but rather endorsement of a belief that gave writers authority as authors of the nation, an authority that Masaryk himself thought writers should enjoy. people.bu.edu /crr/AAASS2000.htm   (3301 words)
