its infiltration to the Czech poetry. Contemporary manifests, anthologies, essays
and critics has been researched so as to detect the influence of this new musical phenomenon
over the Czech avant-garde art. The inspiration by jazz music then have been
discovered in concrete books of poetry by E. F. Burian, V. Nezval, J. Seifert, J. Voskovec and
J. Werich. The jazz motives as ‘jazz-band, black, saxophone etc’ as well as imitation of a
blues form were found there. In conclusion, the author points to the fact that the jazz music
has become the symbol of the new revolutionary art, identified with the left-wing avantgarde,
and it has brought a new view of reality, methods and functions of art.
