The study is aimed at the composition of Pavel Hruz´s book Pereat. The author of the study uses a term 'composition', which in his concept includes a structural and a thematic part of the work as well as its meaning of construction. The author's theoretical starting point is based on an idea about dynamic nature of the prose text composition, which is created by synchronic interaction of procedures providing continuity and discontinuity of the composition. The author pays attention to certain parts of Pereat's composition, which have both unifying and separating function. He describes seven texts of the book as a sequence of seven narrative transformations of the basic fabula, as seven relatively independent sujets. With their motif relations and meaning correspondence they also create logically related sequence of events, called by an ad hoc formed (subsidiary) term 'archisujet'. Narration in Pereat is composed in two levels. An effect of the whole text, not reduced to any of 'individual' texts, can be seen in oscillation between two levels. Text understanding permanently oscillates between meanings developed by particular stories and meaning belonging to an 'archisujet' layer. Distinguishing two steps of epic material transformation seems to be useful in explaining artistic value of Hruz's book as well as determinants influencing text interpretation.

This paper looks at fiction techniques and their semantic implications in the texts of a Slovak writer Balla. The author explains the paradoxical essence of the story in Balla's works by means of the 'event's' nature being different from that of the subject matter's theme, going beyond the borderline separating the two distinctive semantic fields. Balla's texts demonstrate the impossibility of changing the protagonist's negative situation. The essence of the thematic problem is by its nature close to a theme less text that contradicts the usual story ness directed towards dynamic interaction between the subject and its surroundings. The static nature of the theme demands innovations in the text-producing process, while this also determines the process substantially. As the author's treatment of the theme does not allow for thematic detention, the stronger becomes the author's focus on procedures that are able to disintegrate disproportional thematic facets beyond straightforward verbalisation as well. In the frame of fictional semantics, the purpose is served by contaminating the fictional world with elements overlapping the 'real' dimension and exploiting the tex's metaphorical components. Besides the two mentioned procedures, the tendency towards a more developed fictional structure is manifested in Balla's work. If the story represents a medium of potential extension in Slovak cultural context, 'story' in Balla's texts means obstructing extension and in this way also the impossibility to experience the 'otherness' of existence in motion. As a result, the fiction provides minimal transitivity into 'trans textual' cathartic space. The ground for aggravated communication is the subject encircled in the causality of causes and effects, with an absence of the slightest hints concerning a breakthrough in his state. Thus the way to ease off the accumulated tension does not open by the text itself; but in contrary, it is necessary to step out of it.
