Summary/Abstract: The article explores the theme of death, drawing a parallel between three contemporary Czech works of literature and the conceptual structure of the short story “Three Deaths”, by Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy. Each of these three deaths is juxtaposed with its interpretational equivalent in the works “Romances of the wald-horn” by František Hrubín, “The Automate ‘World’” by Bohumil Hrabal and “The End of the Carnival” by Josef Topol.
