- Abstract
This study reflects on methods of recording and preserving poetry used by contemporary Czech poets, as influenced by the advent of digital technologies in the 1990s. The examples of poets Ludvík Kundera, Miroslav Holub and J. H. Krchovský illustrate that the approach to using a computer may differ considerably within the same generation, let alone across generations. The author carried out a questionnaire survey with thirty men and women poets of the middle and younger generations in order to document their relationship to the new media. It is apparent that in some aspects the poets are traditionalists - e.g., they put down initial ideas on paper, though in this case they might use a mobile phone as a digital notebook. Correspondence has undergone striking change - since around 1998, with the rise of electronic mail, the poets have almost ceased to use the classical postal service for correspondence.
