Slovak and world poets: Ján Hollý, Ján Kollár, and Pavol Országh Hviezdoslav as actors in European cultural transfer

Summary/Abstract: This article analyzes three dominant Slovak 19th-century authors who self-consciously built their monumentality, styled themselves as national poets and saw their poetry as analogous to the work of the major European poets of the time: Ján Hollý (1785–1849) and Ján Kollár (1793–1852), who represent the beginnings of modern Slovak poetry, and Pavol Országh Hviezdoslav (1849–1921), whose work synthetizes the 19th century. The study focuses on cultural transfer in their work, which enabled them to insert Slovak literature into the context of the European literary trends of the period, and specifically on three paradigmatic aspects of these processes: the model of a “national poet” as an attempt to approximate the canon of large European literatures, the aspect of interliterary relations and the questions of literary translation as an inherent part of literary life, enhancing cultural transfer between languages and literatures. Štúdia vznikla v rámci grantu VEGA 2/0127/23 „Slovenská literatúra v medziliterárnych a transkultúrnych súvislostiach“.
