K. Clark´s understanding of socialist realism as a canonical doctrine turns our attention towards the problem of the universal authority of this phenomenon in Soviet-type culture. The article focuses on exposing the principles of the authority in the form of canonization as a “contract agreement”. In this type of framework, the subject of analysis is the process of canonization formed by the “figures” of forclusion, conversion, inclusion ad instrument such as commentary and lecture. Finally, the subject of reflection is also the moment of the destruction of canonized structures through their subversion. The literary material to serve as illustration of these mechanisms is Slovak literature and literary life in 1948/49 – 1989/90.
