Course objectives
The lecture and the seminar they both are aiming at the explication of the Slovakian realism and the literary development of the II part of the 19th century, when the modernism and other up to date literary streams appeared (almanac Napred, 1871). The work of the crucial realistic authors is being studied here first of all (S. Hurban Vajanský, Martin Kukučín, P. Országh Hviezdoslav). No less attention is devoted to the literary criticism (Jozef Škultéty) that not only had paved the way to the realism, but also studied this phenomenon. The authors of co-called II generation of realists will be studied correspondingly to what was said above (L. Nadáši-Jégé, J. Gregor Tajovský, B. Slánčiková-Timrava, J. Jesenský etc). On seminars the work of theirs are studied first of all. The class work should result in seminar paper that must be submitted in the amount of 10 pages as minimum.
