摘要：
This paper strives to illuminate the forebodings of AI and automatization's impact on society in two neglected Czech treasures unavailable in English, & Ccaron;estm & iacute;r Vejd & ecaron;lek's N & aacute;vrat z r & aacute;je [ Return from Paradise] ] (1961) and Ji & rcaron;& iacute; Marek's Bla & zcaron;en & yacute; V & ecaron;k [ The Blessed Age] ] (1967). The study aims to illustrate science fiction's prescience and part of Czech SF's path after & Ccaron;apek, while challenging the notion that "the utopian society is a subject, perhaps even the only subject that is inaccessible to literature" (Hans Magnus Enzensberger). For these dystopian texts engage readers to imagine the positive alternative to the portrayed societies, rather than explicitly evoking eutopia.
