This article deals with the question of the “nationalization” of the detective genre, which can be seen with increasing frequency in Czech literary culture from the last third of the 1920s, both in literary journalism and in the actual works. In this context, the prose works featuring the detective Estevan Rex, written by Ladislav and Vladimír Tůma, are a remarkable example of the trend towards domestication of the genre. In the present essay we focus in particular on the unusually broad genre field in which the individual texts are situated and the attempt, unusual at that time, to create a shared fictional world in which they take place.
