KRITICKÉ ČÍTANIE LITERÁRNEJ TVORBY VÍŤAZOSLAVA HRONCA Z ASPEKTU JEJ INTERTEXTUÁLNEHO CHARAKTERU
A CRITICAL READING OF HRONEC’S LITERARY WORK FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF INTERTEXTUALITY

Summary/Abstract: This article analyzes the monograph Intertextuality in Viťazoslav Hronec’s literary work (Podoby intertextuality v tvorbe Viťazoslava Hronca) by Marina Šimáková Spevákova, in which she interpreted Hronec’s literary work systematically from the perspective of intertextuality. The emphasis is on the theoretical and methodological problematics of intertextuality itself, i.e. her explicit and implicit nature and the theory of citation, which is effectively applied in Šimáková Speváková’s work. Parallel to these theoretical problematics, the article discusses Šimáková Speváková’s method for her thorough and nuanced analysis, which is based on Hronec’s literary tendencies in the context of a change in European literature, especially through the transition period from modern to postmodern literature in the second half of the twentieth century. Through an analysis of Hronec’s poetic, prose and autoreflexive work, Šimáková Speváková manages to prove to a large extent her initial thesis according to which intertextuality is the basic creative method, the semantic and ontological principle, and also the aesthetic norm in Hronec‘s literary work.
