The study contains an interpretation of Slovak romantic writer Jozef Miloslav Hurban´s prose Olejkar (Medicine man). It is meant to verify essential structural features which participate in the production of the prose´s receptive meaning. The interpretation showed that the basic intention which can be identified in the text is deliberately laying emphasis on pragmatic functions of fiction. The intention is in accord with the idea of fiction purposefulness which was presented and formulated by Jozef Miloslav Hurban in his theoretical works, namely Slovensko a jeho zivot literarny (Slovakia and its literary life), where Hurban openly formulates his idea of extra literary functions of fiction, while the nation representation is the dominant one. The key element, necessary for history thematisation, is Hurban´s construct of progressive history direction epitomized in the metaphor of a pyramid. Thus, formed theoretical premise finds its fictional manifestation in the prose Olejkar. In the terms of history thematisation, the composition principle is tension between historiographic verified version of historical facts and their fictional recoding. This approach is in the text represented by the character of Matus Cak Trenciansky, who is depicted as a 'Slovak patriot' and a representative of 'good old times'. The functional emphasis of nation-representative intention is also seen in the thematisation of love as mainly individual heroic sacrifice for the good of the nation. Thus, Hurban incorporates into his prose - besides his own theoretical construct of nation history - Stur´s call for sacrificing personal matters (love, marriage) on the altar of the nation.

The study is an interpretation of one of the most known texts of the Slovak Romantic literature, the fiction by Jan Kalinciak Restavracia (Restoration). The main problem initiating the interpretation is an opinion, quite fixed by the history of literature and also known in the school praxis, that the mentioned fiction has a realistic character. Contrary to it, the author of the study, however, pointed out mainly features connected with the Romanticism. He shows constitutive role of the rational scepsis in the text. He defines it as basic semantic gesture of Jan Kalinciak not only for this fiction but also for his historical fictions. Those are helpful as a 'paradigm' of methods and conventions for reading the Restavracia (Restoration). The study discloses foundational features of 'picture' in the structure of Kalinciak´s fiction and it shows connections with early Romanticism in the concept of Romantic irony.
