The objective of the present article is to analyze the main characters and the historical events in the short prose Křivoklad by Karel Hynek Mácha. The paper analyses the main characters' motivations – the king and his executioner – and their mutual relation. The plot development is a proof of the statement that the Premyslid’s regale years were for Mácha a period of national prosperity, after which the story and the history is heading towards an inevitable decline.
