Václav Havel ( Prague , October 5th 1936 - Hrádeček , December 18 2011) was a political dissident under the Czechoslovak communist regime. Havel was a leading figure in the political-social movement known as Charter 77, which played a crucial role in bringing down communism in the country. After the reconstitution of democracy and the split of Czechoslovakia, Havel was elected president of the newly formed Czech Republic from 1993 to 2003.
Havel is also known as a playwright, essayist and poet, among his writings we mention: Party in the garden (1963), the power of the powerless (1978), The hearing (1978), Letters to Olga ( 1988), Disturbing Peace (1991) and The Art of the Impossible (1998) .
