Since Milan Kundera first began publishing prose fiction in the 1960s, his provocative and often comic depictions of human sexual behavior have drawn thousands of readers to his work. But they have also earned him the labels of misogynist from many critics. <\/p>\n

This presentation examines the related theme in Kundera\u2019s fiction of the uneasy relationship between men and their real or hypothetical offspring. In surveying several examples of problematic fatherhood and paternity-avoidance in Kundera\u2019s novels, it relates the dread of procreation to an Existentialist stance of embracing freedom and authenticity. In the process, it also explores some key philosophical and aesthetic categories in Kundera\u2019s fiction which extend beyond the theme of fatherhood.<\/p>\n
