Lady Godiva. Autor John Collier (1898)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

P\u0159ed 986 lety, 10. \u010dervence 1040, projela podle star\u00e9 pov\u011bsti lady Godiva, man\u017eelka hrab\u011bte Leofrika z Mercie, na koni nah\u00e1 ulicemi anglick\u00e9ho m\u011bsta Coventry, aby osvobodila jeho obyvatele od vysok\u00fdch dan\u00ed\u2026<\/h6>\n

P\u0159\u00edb\u011bh o kr\u00e1sn\u00e9 d\u00e1m\u011b a jej\u00ed odv\u00e1\u017en\u00e9 j\u00edzd\u011b se \u2013 stejn\u011b jako jin\u00e9 star\u00e9 pov\u011bsti \u2013 traduje v bezpo\u010dtu r\u016fzn\u00fdch variant. J\u00e1dro je nicm\u00e9n\u011b v\u017edy zhruba stejn\u00e9. Vypr\u00e1v\u00ed o hrab\u011bti z Coventry, kter\u00fd, aby zajistil stavebn\u00ed rozvoj m\u011bsta a p\u0159ilehl\u00e9ho okol\u00ed, zat\u00ed\u017eil sv\u016fj lid velk\u00fdmi dan\u011bmi. N\u00e1\u0159ek poddan\u00fdch brzy dolehl a\u017e k u\u0161\u00edm jeho man\u017eelky. Kr\u00e1sn\u00e9 pan\u00ed Godiv\u011b bylo ne\u0161\u0165astn\u00fdch lid\u00ed velice l\u00edto, a tak padla p\u0159ed man\u017eelem na kolena a v slz\u00e1ch jej prosila, aby byl na sv\u011b\u0159en\u00e9 du\u0161e m\u00edrn\u011bj\u0161\u00ed. Hrab\u011b j\u00ed v\u0161ak odv\u011btil, \u017ee na stavbu pot\u0159ebuje pen\u00edze, stejn\u011b jako ona pot\u0159ebuje sv\u00e9 kr\u00e1sn\u00e9 \u0161aty. S \u00fasm\u011bvem pak dodal: \u201eV\u017edy\u0165 kdybys nem\u011bla sv\u00e9 oble\u010den\u00ed a \u0161perky, nikdo by nepoznal, \u017ee jsi urozen\u00e1 d\u00e1ma.\u201c<\/p>\n

Godiva mu ale odpov\u011bd\u011bla: \u201eBeru v\u00e1s za slovo, m\u016fj pane. Z\u00edtra v poledne projedu Coventry docela nah\u00e1 a vy za to sv\u00fdm lidem sn\u00ed\u017e\u00edte dan\u011b. Snad v\u00e1m t\u00edm dok\u00e1\u017ei, \u017ee opravdov\u00e1 urozenost je patrn\u00e1 na prvn\u00ed pohled i bez vn\u011bj\u0161\u00edch ozdob.\u201c<\/p>\n

Hrab\u011b se samoz\u0159ejm\u011b zd\u011bsil a za\u010dal man\u017eelce ten bl\u00e1zniv\u00fd n\u00e1pad vymlouvat, ona ov\u0161em ze sv\u00e9ho pl\u00e1nu neustoupila. Druh\u00e9ho dne tak let\u011bla od \u00fast k \u00fast\u016fm zpr\u00e1va o podivn\u00e9m divadle, je\u017e se chyst\u00e1, a v\u0161ichni bohabojn\u00ed ob\u010dan\u00e9 rychle zav\u00edrali okenice, aby svou vl\u00e1dkyni ani koutkem oka nezahl\u00e9dli.<\/p>\n

N\u00e1sleduj\u00edc\u00edho dne se m\u011bstem \u0161\u00ed\u0159ila zpr\u00e1va o chystan\u00e9m \u201edivadle\u201c. Ob\u010dan\u00e9 \u2013 podle pov\u011bsti \u2013 zav\u0159eli okenice, aby svou pan\u00ed ani koutkem oka nezahl\u00e9dli. Kdy\u017e zvon odbil poledne, Godiva vsedla na b\u00edlou klisnu, zahalen\u00e1 jen do sv\u00fdch dlouh\u00fdch vlas\u016f, a projela cel\u00e9 Coventry. Hrab\u011b, dojat\u00fd jej\u00ed odvahou, lidem dan\u011b skute\u010dn\u011b odpustil.<\/p>\n

A\u010dkoli \u00favodn\u00ed vypr\u00e1v\u011bn\u00ed l\u00ed\u010d\u00ed Godivinu j\u00edzdu jako dramatick\u00fd \u010din, kter\u00fd m\u011bl zm\u011bnit osud Coventry, samotn\u00e1 ud\u00e1lost je podle historik\u016f a\u017e pozdn\u011b st\u0159edov\u011bk\u00e1 konstrukce. Lady Godiva i jej\u00ed man\u017eel Leofrik jsou sice dolo\u017een\u00e9 postavy z prvn\u00ed poloviny 11. stolet\u00ed, zn\u00e1m\u00e9 svou \u0161t\u011bdrost\u00ed v\u016f\u010di kl\u00e1\u0161ter\u016fm a chud\u00fdm, av\u0161ak \u017e\u00e1dn\u00fd dobov\u00fd pramen o nah\u00e9 j\u00edzd\u011b nemluv\u00ed. Nejstar\u0161\u00ed zm\u00ednka poch\u00e1z\u00ed a\u017e z roku 1236 z kroniky Rogera z Wendoveru \u2013 tedy v\u00edce ne\u017e sto let po Godivin\u011b smrti. Wendover\u016fv text nav\u00edc nese typick\u00e9 rysy moralizuj\u00edc\u00edho vypr\u00e1v\u011bn\u00ed, kter\u00e9 m\u011blo inspirovat, nikoli informovat.<\/p>\n

Dal\u0161\u00ed vrstvy legendy se nabalovaly postupn\u011b: motiv zav\u0159en\u00fdch okenic se objevuje a\u017e v 17. stolet\u00ed, zat\u00edmco postava \u201e\u0160m\u00edr\u00e1ka Toma\u201c, jedin\u00e9ho mu\u017ee, kter\u00fd se podle pozdn\u00ed tradice pokusil Godivu zahl\u00e9dnout a byl za to potrest\u00e1n, vznikla a\u017e v 18.\u201319. stolet\u00ed. V p\u016fvodn\u00edch st\u0159edov\u011bk\u00fdch verz\u00edch legendy nefiguruje; jde o novov\u011bk\u00fd dopln\u011bk, kter\u00fd m\u011bl p\u0159\u00edb\u011bh zatraktivnit pro m\u011bstsk\u00e9 slavnosti a lidov\u00e9 divadeln\u00ed hry. Pr\u00e1v\u011b tato pozdn\u00ed tradice pomohla legend\u011b zako\u0159enit v identit\u011b Coventry natolik, \u017ee m\u011bsto dodnes po\u0159\u00e1d\u00e1 ka\u017edoro\u010dn\u00ed Godiva Festival. Historick\u00e1 realita je tedy mnohem st\u0159\u00eddm\u011bj\u0161\u00ed ne\u017e romantick\u00e9 vypr\u00e1v\u011bn\u00ed \u2013 ale pr\u00e1v\u011b kontrast mezi fakty a legendou dod\u00e1v\u00e1 p\u0159\u00edb\u011bhu jeho trval\u00e9 kouzlo…<\/p>\n
