Dve herecké generácie slovenského profesionálneho divadla – Východiskový stav slovenského herectva
Two Actor Generations of the Slovak Professional Theatre – Starting point of the Slovak Histrionics

Summary/Abstract: By the beginning of 20-th century the theatre has not got the status of an independent type of an artistic activity, and unlike a writer, painter, or a composer, a theatrical artist was only a certain type of a craftsman. The situation of the Slovak histrionics was even more complicated. The Slovak revolution in past years redirected the running train of assimilation of the Slovak and their dissemination among surrounding nations of the monarchy, but it did not succeed in concluding the process of a national emancipation by constituing the professional institution of the National Theatre, like the Czech or Hungarian nationalsts did in a approximately the same time. The author of the study is interested in what is possible to gain from the sources about the first generation of the Slovak professional actors.
