Abstracts

Personal experience with Russian culture and Russia is a separate theme in literary works by the authors known as the „generation of the Hlas“ (according to a periodical in which they published). Several authors belonged to this generation were active between roughly the 1890s and the 1910s, such as Vavro Šrobár, Dušan Makovický, Albert Škarvan, Bohdan Pavlů, Jozef Gregor-Tajovský, as well as Janko Jesenský who was not directly affiliated with it but was their peer. At the beginning, contacts of these writers with Russian philosophy and literature were mediated, and often inspiring. Later on, they showed personal experience from Russia in their works. This experience brought equivocal results: in some cases, it strengthened belief in Russia whereas in other cases, it made them rethink their original attitudes or it cast doubts on their original opinions about Russia.
