In the 18th century the authors created platform for a reader to interact in the sphere of visual conceptions. A good example of it is an epic composition Pametna celemu svetu Tragoedia by Augustin Dolezal (The Tragedy, Remembered by the Entire World 1791). Dolezal's literary and linguistically work has also visual dimension. In the chapters dedicated to everyday life (inhabitants and the concept of the earthly world) there is an evident inspiration from Comenius, from his concept of a visible world (Orbis pictus). Dolezal reflected contemporary architectonic art (description of Eden is like a French park) and also portrait fine arts (portrait of a landlord from Liptov). There are also evidences of using the emblematic poetics (so called 'nuda emblemata'). The signal of visualisation appears in description of the world of craftsmen through distinctive poetic adjectives, which are not a sign of classicistic norm, but of new aesthetic paradigm.

The collection Vesele ucinki a receni (Cheerful teachings and sayings) is the first humorous print medium in the history of Slovak literature. However, the significance of its editor J. I. Bajza´s contribution requires objective assessment. Besides the question of its originality and inspirations there should also be raised a question of the genre and the reflected reality the collection presents. The contents analysis allows stating that the genres of the collection include riddle, humourous short story and anecdote, which outnumbers the others. The anecdotes are not only meant to entertain but also to educate. They reflect the experiences of people´s coexistence in the ethnically and confesionally diverse Central-European region. There are also depicted episodes from everyday life (about social classes, professions and wives as well as various historical and contemporary figures). The editor´s intention was to cultivate the relationships between the contemporaries and influence their conventional opinions and attitudes.
