Summary/Abstract: The study contemplates autobiographical expression as an aesthetic and artistic category. In the first, theoretical part, the authoress gives a general characteristics and definition of the essential features of autobiographicality. She elucidates them in terms of the relationship between the text and the context along four basic lines of communication of a possible development of the understanding of the language of an artistic text as autobiographical. Specifically, it is the author‘s genesis, the genesis of reflection, the genesis of tradition, and the genesis (analysis) of a period of time in question. In the second, pragmatic part, theoretical knowledge is applied and used in the whole communication situation of a particular theatrical work: in a production of the dramatisation of Theatrical Novel by Mikhail Afanasievich Bulgakov, which was staged by the Drama Company of the Slovak National Theatre in 2020. Despite the fact that Bulgakov’s work is regarded as a typical autobiographical novel by both the Slovak and international communities of experts, the recipient does not necessarily have to understand the production as being autobiographical.
