Summary/Abstract: The aim of this text is to confirm the thesis about hermeneutic implications for models of interpretation which are integrated and illustrated within the literary texts. The specific subject of interest is the novel Possession by the British author Antonia S. Byatt: which on structural level, on level of metafictional devices and explicit comments illustrates certain crucial aspects of theory and practice of interpretation. The double frame of thematization of the interpretation and demonstration of the interpretative processes within the novel, articulates particular hermeneutic theories which situate the interpretation between the text and the context (between the meaning and significance, between the theory and practice, between the „seduction“and „possession“).
