Before the invasion, Czech reformers had made unexpected use of television to advance political and social change. In its aftermath, Communist Party leaders employed the medium to achieve "normalization," pitching television stars against political dissidents in a televised spectacle that defined the times. The Greengrocer and His TV offers a new cultural history of communism from the Prague Spring to the Velvet Revolution that reveals how state-endorsed ideologies were played out on television, particularly through soap opera-like serials. In focusing on the small screen, Paulina Bren looks to the "normal" of normalization, to the everyday experience of late communism. The figure central to this book is the greengrocer who, in a seminal essay by Václav Havel, symbolized the ordinary citizen who acquiesced to the communist regime out of fear. Bren challenges simplistic dichotomies of fearful acquiescence and courageous dissent to dramatically reconfigure what we know, or think we know, about everyday life under communism in the 1970's and 1980's. Deftly moving between the small screen, the street, and the Central Committee (and imaginatively drawing on a wide range of sources that include television shows, TV viewers' letters, newspapers, radio programs, the underground press, and the Communist Party archives), Bren shows how Havel's greengrocer actually experienced "normalization" and the ways in which popular television serials framed this experience. Now back by popular demand, socialist-era serials, such as The Woman Behind the Counter and The Thirty Adventures of Major Zeman, provide, Bren contends, a way of seeing-literally and figuratively-Czechoslovakia's normalization and Eastern Europe's real socialism. 606 $aCommunism and culture$zCzechoslovakia$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPolitical culture$zCzechoslovakia$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aTelevision and politics$zCzechoslovakia$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aCzechoslovakia$xPolitics and government$y1968-1989 607 $aCzechoslovakia$xSocial life and customs$y20th century 607 $aCzechoslovakia$xIntellectual life$y20th century 607 $aCzechoslovakia$xHistory$yIntervention, 1968$xInfluence 615 0$aCommunism and culture$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical culture$xHistory 615 0$aTelevision and politics$xHistory 676 $a943.704/3 700 $aBren$b Paulina$01503294 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781246203321 996 $aThe greengrocer and his TV$93731585 997 $aUNINA
