Summary/Abstract: Ivan Němec deals with adaptations by Jan Vladislav. His life and work were adversely affected by the political ideology after the 1948 coup. The ban of publication he had to face several times was reflected to a large extent in his creative development and translation activities as well asin his interest in literature for children. From his own rhymed fairy tales related with hislong-term interest in folklore this excellent translator gradually moved to original adaptations of fairy tales of various nations.
