„Konceptuální literatura“: Zamyšlení nad problematickou kategorií
“Coneptual Literature”: Reflections on a Problematic Concept

Summary/Abstract: The article explores the concept of conceptual literature, a term that emerged in the 1990s and remains loosely defined, particularly in the Francophone world. Unlike conceptual art, which is well-documented and theoretically established, conceptual literature lacks a clear definition and is often confused with experimental literature or constrained writing. The article discusses the challenges of applying the term "conceptual" from visual arts to literature and highlights the differences in how the term is perceived in French and Anglo-Saxon contexts. It also examines the influence of Oulipo and the idea of literature as a set of protocols or actions rather than traditional narratives. The text delves into various forms of conceptual writing, including aleatoric texts, mannerist texts, ready-made texts, and illegible texts, and their implications for contemporary literary practices.
