Od diskurzívneho konštruovania literárneho realizmu k realistickému interdiskurzívnemu konštruovaniu reality

Author(s): Milan Kendra / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 4/2021

This study examines the internal complexity of Slovak literary realist discourse, which is explained in Slovak studies as the result of diverse relations to the heterogeneous artistic, cultural and ideological discourses of the last third of the 19th century. However, since realistic fiction forms a subsystem of art as a social system (Niklas Luhmann), attention is focused on communications with other social systems and corresponding stimuli, and on the specific (self-referential) literary operations (with their inevitable contingency) involved in the constructionof a view of reality. In order to illustrate these communicative exchanges, the final section uses two short interpretations to give examples of different modes of the (literary-) realist interdiscursive construction of reality – voluntaristic (in the fiction of Svetozár HurbanVajanský) and deterministic (in the context of the short stories of Ladislav Nádaši).

МАНИФЕСТЪТ И ХУДОЖЕСТВЕНИЯТ ТЕКСТ. ВЪРХУ ПРИМЕР ОТ СЛОВАШКАТА ЛИТЕРАТУРА

Author(s): Irena Dimova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 02/2021

Abstract: The subject of this article is the Slovak literary manifesto “Prospective Talks on Children's poetry.” The text examines the type of wording typical of the manifesto that can be found in it and its direct impact on the work of some of representatives of the poetry group who wrote it. In addition, the changes which took place in the field of Slovak children's literature during the second half of the last century and the contribution of the so-called Concretists are also considered. The analysis is based on the possible connection between the manifesto of the Tarnava group and similar gestures that preceded it in Slovak literature.

Poézia pre deti zoroslava (speváka) jesenského po roku 2015

Author(s): Zuzana Čížiková / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 2/2021

This scholarly text provides an analytical-interpretative perspective of current literary work for children of the contemporary Vojvodinian Slovak writer Zoroslav (Spevák) Jesenský (1956). The author of this text focuses on Jesenský’s work after 2015, especially on his poetry for children published in eight poetry collections. The author particularly observed the circumstances of Jesenský’s return to children’s literature, his main creative postulates and program focus, the main motifs, shapes and thematic, expressive and the overall poetic characteristics of his poetry for children. This text registers and evaluates the (un)balanced representation of several functions of artistic text for children in individual collections.

DRAMATICKÝ FRAMGMET PAVLA ORSZÁGHA HVIEZDOSLAVA NA LUCIU

Author(s): Ján Gbúr / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 04/2021

The aim of the study is a comprehensive analysis of the little-known dramatic fragment Na Luciu, written by the classic of Slovak literature Pavol Országh Hviezdoslav. The complexity of the applied approach lies in the use of several research methods (heuristic, comparative, analytical-synthetic), which are used to assess relevant facts of theoretical (the form-genre area of drama, romantic-realistic creative principle) and the material character (the circumstances of the creation of the dramatic fragment, the thematic background of its creation, the structural characteristics of the text).

HÁJNIKOVA ŽENA AKO DRAMATURGICKO-REŽIJNÁ VÝZVA. K VZŤAHU DRAMATIZÁCIE A JEJ JAVISKOVEJ INTERPRETÁCIE

Author(s): Peter Himič / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 01/2022

Pavel Orszagh Hviezdoslav’s masterpiece, the lyrical-epic composition Hájnikova žena [The Gamekeeper’s Wife] boasts undeniable dramatic qualities, which have been reflected on by Slovak theatre in several dramatisations and productions. The study primarily analyses the dramatisation of a specific literary work in its relation to its future stage adaptation. It focuses on the relevant attempts to come to terms with a language-specific, genre-syncretic form in an inter-genre-al and intersemiotic artistic space.

ONEDLHO BUDE SVITAŤ – ZABUDNUTÁ „POVSTALECKÁ“ HRA ELENY HOLÉCZYOVEJ

Author(s): Diana PAVLAČKOVÁ / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 01/2022

Elena Holéczyová (1906 – 1983) entered professional theatre as a playwright with her play Onedlho bude svitať [Soon It Will Dawn], which was directed in 1959 by her brother Martin Hollý Snr. at Peter Jilemnický Theatre in Žilina. From the initial version of the text through the first reading rehearsal down to the reviews of the production, her work was accompanied by negative criticism. This was partly due to the ideological pressure on art exerted by the ruling communist party, which, despite political relaxation, had an adverse effect on both the adaptation of the play and the evaluation of the production. Based on documents from the estate of Elena Holéczyová in the Literary Archives of the Slovak National Library, the study reenacts her initial intentions and a gradual transformation of the text into stage form.

BEDNÁRIKOVA KAVIAREŇ LÝRA AKO PALIMPSEST, DIALÓG I REKONTEXTUALIZÁCIA DIEL DOBROSLAVA CHROBÁKA

Author(s): Jana Dudková / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 01/2022

The study focuses on the textual analysis of Jozef Bednárik’s television film Kaviareň Lýra [Lyra Café] (1992) and on its comparison with the two literary model texts by Dobroslav Chrobák, which the film picks up on and on which it is based. The authoress pinpoints the dialogical relationship between the two text models and their television adaptation, as well as the recontextualisation of the literary source texts in the context of a different time period, while refuting the notions of undue sentimentality attributed to Bednárik’s television adaptation by other authors. The study draws on contemporary theories of adaptation, particularly as palimpsest (Linda Hutcheon) and a dialogue with the model text, or as a version of a unified work (John Bryant).

Postmoderna a súčasná slovenská literatúra v rumunsku (Postmodernistické tendencie v tvorbe Anny Rău-Lehotskej)

Author(s): Martina Matyášová / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 1/2016

Postmodernism is one of today’s most read and beloved literary movements, one which allows authors to freely experiment in writing and readers to freely interpret texts. A Scroll of Resolutions and A Bit of Space are thematically quite heterogeneous works that both allow for various interpretations and analyses of the stories contained in them. Anna Rău-Lehotská, a Slovak writer living in Romania, has, on one hand, publicly embraced Postmodernism; yet, at the same time, she uses only individual devices from the cannon, refusing to explicitly adopt it as a whole. Existence, being, and emotionality are the dominant phenomena she addresses and deeply cares about in her prose. In the study, these aspects are examined from the point of view of their functions and meanings in individual texts.

Kodifikácia Antona Bernoláka a spisovná bernolákovčina

Author(s): Konstantin V. Lifanov / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 2/2014

The article discusses the language base codification of Slovak literary language, codified by A. Bernolák, and its real functioning. Studying of writing before A. Bernolák and A. Bernolák's assertion testify that the idiom, created in South-Western Slovakia and then spread across all Slovak territory, was a codification basis really. However, it was not in classical Trnavian form, but in a peripheral Northern Central Slovak one. Consequently, it is quite a large number of the Central Slovak elements, the use of which was along with the typical West Slovak ones. In the Bernolák's literary language these elements start being lost quickly, more and more increasing the West Slovak character of this literary language.

Neintencionálne intencionálna mládežnícka próza Petra Andrušku (sondy, reflexie, interpretácie do piatich próz jedného jubilanta)

Author(s): Patrik Šenkár / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 1/2014

In the thematic centre of the study that originates from its title: Non‐intentional, intentional youth prose of Peter Andruška (explorations, reflections, interpretations into five prose of one jubilant) – stands the youth prose of an exclusive Slovak prose writer Peter Andruška. He is considered to be part of the contemporary Slovak literature by readers as well as literature critics. In the text I have not based deliberately on critical responses of titles of individual books by the author, but "only" on basic information of prose mentioned in the academic history of Slovak literature, respectively primary book sources. Cardinal parts of the paper are therefore his own interpretation explorations, reflections and analysis based on personal reading reception. The occasionally exaggerated presence of content component of prose alone (especially the plot) is due to (possible) less knowledge of specific (or every) presented title of books by Peter Andruška from the perspective of the percipients. I emphasise the fact that the field of children and youth literature for Peter Andruška was (and is) “only" a partial part of his own literary works, the substantial part of which is constituted by his works of prose for adult readers. In this area he has published "only" five book titles altogether, which I analyse in this exact paper. The study is the outcome of the first part of the research assignment UGA. No. IX/9/2011‐ (SOFIA Project ode: I‐08‐501‐01) titled Contemporary Slovak Literature and finally it was created (also) for the occasion of the author’s seventieth.

Numele personajelor din literatura slovacă în slujba umorului

Author(s): Dagmar Maria Anoca / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 3/2012

In this paper, the author illustrates the different types of humor by means of the names of characters taken from representative works written in Slovak, starting from classicism and ending in the interwar period. In conclusion, humor and names-related irony are found out to change their substance because of the literary, extraliterary, linguistic and extralinguistic space. The tension between these spheres, but also changes that occur in the real world with changing ideologies, social and political context are converted in aesthetic values. Characters΄ names are therefore a source of humor and also characterize their age. In fact, the kind, the quality of humor has its roots in the outdoors and is symptomatic. Thus, characters΄ names may be simultaneously a source of humor and knowledge of their age.

„Levandulo prevúnná...“. Poznámky k obrazu ženy v textoch staršej slovenskej literatúry

Author(s): Zuzana Kákošová / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 2/2012

The author in her study named Levandulo prevúnná... (Notes to the Image of Woman in the Texts of Old Slovak Literature) deals with the literary adaptation of the image of woman in Old Slovak literature in such form as it was preserved in Medieval, Renaissance and Baroque writings. It focuses on relevant works of medieval chronicles and legends, Renaissance Humanist poetry in Latin, Slovak Renaissance love and historical poetry and Renaissance drama, Baroque poetry, prose and drama. The study shows that the image of woman in Old Slovak literature shifts in Renaissance from its original simple and modest form of a saint and a noblewoman to a more colorful range, which peaks in Baroque literature, where we can find a noblewoman, a religious woman, but also a simple woman or a woman of loose morals.

Jazykové a štylistické indikátory magickosti a rozprávkovosti a invariant vnútra v krátkych prózach Dagmar Márie Anocy

Author(s): Zuzana Kováčová / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 2/2012

La introspección, el descubrimiento del interior, la imagen de pensamiento del hombre, el convencimiento del lector sobre la sinceridad de los sentimientos de protagonistas es lo que le incorpora a D. M. Anoca al grupo de aquellos escritores que por la crítica literaria están considerados escritores modernos. El interés sobre el pervivir psíquico del hombre, su colocación en el centro de atención del autor y del lector es un invariante que la autora copia de poesía a la prosa. No es la fuerza de una historia ni la originalidad del carácter, sino el inetrior del hombre, su convencimiento y la confrontación del convencimiento y la realidad es lo que crea el valor de la prosa de D. M. Anoca. La capacidad de la introspección artística del interior culmina en las prosas más cortas de D. M. Anoca.

Mystické momenty v poézii S.B. Hroboňa

Author(s): Lubica Somolayová / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 2/2012

The paper Mystical Moments in the Poetry by S.B. Hroboň evolves from criticism of the tradition of Slovak literary historiography, which often considers mysticism in romantic poetry as a negative phenomenon, disqualifying artistic texts. It draws upon research by Oskár Čepan, who has pointed out the mystical messianic line in Slovak romanticism. The author defines and characterizes the phenomenon of mysticism and its possible forms of presence in the texts. Finally, she explains the mystical moments in the poem by romantic poet Samo Bohdan Hroboň with the title Prietaj.
