Summary/Abstract: This paper analyses the reception of Ivan Franko in Mihajlo Kovač's literary works. The literatry opus of Mihajlo Kovač had been heavily influenced by classics of the Ukrainian literature. Among those whose influence of Kovač's literatury work is analysed is Ivan Franko. In order to analyse the reception and draw parallels between Ivan Franko and Mihajlo Kovač, one poem, one story and one play by the aforementioned Ukrainian writer have been used. These two writers are connected to each other by the village area and the description of hard life of the peasants. They are also connected to each other by the conflict between the generations, particularly between parents and children, that we can read about in Kovač's and Franko's stories. Connected to this is the social and analytical function as the stabilizing of the nation, in Kovač's literary works. This paper represents the first step of the systematic analyses of the reception of Ivan Franko in Mihajlo Kovač's literary work.
