Máj circle

Máj circle

▪ Czech writers
      group of young Czech writers of the mid-19th century whose aim was to create a new Czech literature that would reflect their liberalism and practical nationalism. They published in an almanac called Máj (1858; “May”) after the lyrical epic poem of the same name by Karel Hynek Mácha (Mácha, Karel Hynek), whom the group regarded as the forerunner of their literary revolution.
