  • Frontier Orientalism in Central and East European literatures

    eds. Charles Sabatos – Róbert Gáfrik obálka

    The purpose of this issue is to explore the phenomenon of frontier Orientalism in the literatures of Central and Eastern Europe. Andre Gingrich has proposed this con¬cept for countries that have not been colonial powers, but have been in contact with the Oriental world by means of Ottoman invasions. The contributors examine this topic in relation to Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, Serbian, Bosnian, Romanian, Latvian, and Georgian litera¬ture, as well as the genre of historical fiction in Central Europe, from the 19th century to the present.

  • Poetological Aspects of Literary Fiction by Philosophers

    MARCEL FORGÁČ – MILAN KENDRA (eds.) WLS2_2018_obálka

    The issue focuses on research into the poetic elements of the fiction of male and female philosophers, with par¬ticular regard to the analysis of works in philosophy that have the potential to acquire the status of literary fiction. The studies open up questions regarding the ability of their texts to bear functional indications of philosophical discourse while at the same time acquiring an aesthet¬ic structure. From the arguments advanced, it follows that aesthetic conception is, in these cases, a procedure that proposes space for philosophical thoughts to be released from a reference-cognitive framework and ex-amined or valorized by iconic-experiential processing.

  • Perspectives on Metaphor Research

    ed. Roman Mikuláš

    Scholarly research on metaphor today assumes interdisciplinary overlaps and takes into consideration institutional research specifics as well as the system’s own dynamic. For a fully-fledged scholarly discussion on metaphor it is important to make visible paradigms of metaphor research in individual scholarly fields, as well as the role played by metaphor in each discipline and its relevance for solving specific research questions. The articles and materials in this thematic issue analyze the paradigms of research on metaphor and critically reflect and make accessible their position in the current scholarly discourse.

  • Censorship and Auto-Censorship of Contemporary Literature

    ed. Dobrota Pucherová

    This issue explores the role and functioning of literary censorship and auto-censorship in the world after 1990. “Censorship” is understood widely as various forms of structural regulation. The studies, focused on seven countries – Slovakia, France, Russia, China, Iran, Egypt and Uganda – show that the boundaries of socially acceptable literary expression and ways of cultural regulation in the world are greatly varied.
