Felix Vodička: The Goals of Literary History and their Starting Point

Summary/Abstract: The paper aims to present and interpret the methods of literary history developed by Felix Vodička, one of the main representatives of Czech structuralism. The paper describes the variables of the paradigm in the field of literary history and the reasons for this metamorphosis. Attention is focused on the most significant notions of the structuralist analysis of the diachrony of structure: aesthetic object, aesthetic norm, esthetic function and aesthetic value, which were traditionally connected with the synchronic point of view of analysis, and which Vodička strives “to translate” into the language of diachronic analysis.
