Summary/Abstract: In this study we focus on those theoretical concepts that explain the concept of influence in relation to intertextuality. In post-structuralist conceptions, the notion of influence is considered part of the positivist past. On the other hand, some contemporary comparative conceptions (A. Corbineau-Hoffmann) actualize the notion of influence in broader metacommunication processes. In relation to the concepts of intertextuality and influence there is also the concept of latent intertextuality, which, in Kazalarska’s opinion, is perhaps a form of influence since it is objectively “elusive” just like the concept of influence. We look at these theoretical concepts through an analysis of the forms of intertextuality in the works of V. Hronec. We find a possible explanation of latent intertextuality in the wider context of the works of V. Hronec by comparing it with parts of the text in which intertextuality is not hidden. We conclude that the notion of influence is actualized in contemporary theoretical thought as a legacy, in relation to which new theoretical considerations are formed and new concepts are defined that enable a deeper knowledge of a literary work.
