Abstracts

EN

This study re-examines the existing scholarship on Josef Holeček’s seminal multi-volume novel Naši. In the first part, it considers various approaches to Naši over the course of more than a century of literary scholarship on Holeček’s work. In this context, it also seeks to clarify and correct interpretations of its protagonist, the peasant Kojan, thus revealing productive antinomies that effectively disrupt the predominately monumentalizing conceptions that have characterized this scholarship to date. Finally, it considers Holeček’s Naši within the scope of various literary -isms and traditions, drawing from the new pluralistic model of poetics for the Czech prose on which this study is based.
