KALINČIAK V UHORSKU – MOTÍV AKO SIGNÁL KONTEXTU

Reconfiguration of Slovak Romanticism, its openness towards the model of literature and art as it was formulated by German philosopher Friedrich Schlegel (1772 – 1829) in the early of the 19th century. The unambiguous position of the prose writer Ján Kalinčiak (1822 – 1871) as an author of Romanticism together form space which can be interrelated on the basis of common aesthetic principles to the characteristic features of the works written by authors of Hungarian literary Romanticism of the Schlegelian type. This provides space for research into the particularities of the (assumed) inter-literary/inter-linguistic dialogue. It shows that despite the isolationist form of the foreign-language public spaces of cultures and literatures in Hungary in the 1830s and 1840s the way Ján Kalinčiak and Mihály Vörösmarty handled two selected motifs (wilt and blood revenge) in their texts can be interpreted as a manifestation of the ongoing yet no longer visible process of exchanging information. Also, they can be seen as another proof of the fact that the particularities of the Schlegelian model of Romanticism had a noticeable influence on forming Slovak literature at that time.
