The city of Prague has launched an interesting interactive project entitled “Prague, City of Literature.”

As The Prague Post reported April 13, Prague-based writer, professor and theorist Douglas Shields Dix has recently published The Eternal Return, an opus of imposing significance that investigates the Italian life of poet Percy Shelley and synthesizes the thought of some of the most prominent cultural critics of the past 200 years. Dix sat down with The Prague Post to discuss his book.

The Prague Post reviewed a new dual biography of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari Feb. 23. Deleuze and Guattari’s theories have largely remained within academic circles, but traces of their thought – which they outlined in books written independently and together – are evident in more than a few works of literature.

Litteraria Pragensia, Prague’s premier academic press, has recently updated and expanded its online archive, which allows readers to access and read online versions of many of the press’s titles for free.

The Paris Review has released all of its author interviews free on its website. Stein’s radical decision to do so puts more than 50 years of interviews with leading novelists, poets and critics – an invaluable resource – at the disposal of online readers.
