KDYŽ CENZURA PRODUKUJE. NA PŘÍKLADU ZAKÁZANÝCH PRÓZ VLADIMÍRA MINÁČE

The article uses a collection of stories by Vladimír Mináč titled Z nedávnych čias /Of the Recent Times/ banned in 1957 by Head Office of Print Media Supervision as an example so as to show productive effects of censorship. The author develops the ideas of the methodological movement New Censorship (Richard R. Burt) and shows different kinds of meaning that the censorship case produced. The author claims that the censorship interventions made in 1957 are associated with various forms of fetishism, which followed the recent publishing of the book by Vladimír Mináč Zakázané prózy (Banned proses, Ed. Pavel Matejovič, Bratislava : Slovenské informačné centrum 2015) and engaged the work of art that would be otherwise left forgotten in literary communication. Special attention is paid to the legitimizing and canonizing effects that were prompted by the censorship.
