Deconstruction and Construction of the Landscape in Kollár´s Journey to Northern Italy – Keszthely, Zalavár, Zalaapáti

Summary/Abstract: This paper deals with a specific genre in Kollár’s work, namely the travelogue entitled Journey to Northern Italy (1843), which is an integral piece of central European travelogues of the 19th century. The study focuses on the analysis of the first stretch of the writer´s journey to the territory of the Hungarian Kingdom, specifically on the description of the area Zalavár/Mosaburg which belongs to the well-known early medieval settlements of the Cyril and Methodius era. On the one hand, the author’s focus is on the method of the space organization of the mentioned travelogue rooted in the Baroque era (first of all the phenomena as enfilade or central organization of the space). On the other hand, the author pays attention to Kollár’s efforts to create a modern Slavic cultural space from the old one as well as to the writer´s endeavour to set the Slavic cultural space free from the Hungarian captivity.
