summary
Originally intended as an anthology to commemorate the anniversary of František Vrhel (1943–2023), this collection is now published as a tribute to this doyen of Czech Ibero-American studies and linguistic ethnology, cultural anthropologist and legendary figure of the Prague Faculty of Arts. It brings together more than two dozen scholarly essays that in their time often kept pace with the development of the field, had critical discussions with it, or became fundamental contributions to the subject, including several texts on the work of J. L. Borges, whom Vrhel translated. The volume is supplemented by the author's revised bibliography.
