The goal of the paper is to contemplate the nature of the narrative structures in the subgenre of family chronicle, which has undoubtedly left a trace in the western patterns of family story-telling. It is mainly theoretically based on a structuralist paper by Claude Bremond titled The Logic of Narrative Possibilities. However, French structuralist narratology is not mentioned here in order to examine the laws of a literary work of art per se. The paper investigates the layer of fabula in a number of European and Czech family chronicles, which is seen as a trace in a reader ́s memory made by reading a particular piece of writing and forming a meaningful whole. The paper uses Bremond ́s analysis to examine the logic of the narration, what impact it has on understanding the category of family in a family chronicle. What are researched is the patterns of the narration logic in family chronicles, which oscillates between the idyllic family togetherness and individualization. The paper proves that the pattern of deterioration seen as family dissolution and the disintegration of idyllic coexistence is not applied everywhere. This enables to review the current theory of the subgenre in question, which was solely defined by the logic of deterioration. Family chronicle brings a number of narrations based on ambivalent attitudes towards family, which is manifested by alternating processes of deterioration and improvement as well as their concurrence. These make the family chronicle characters hate the family, and at the same time regard it as an environment vital for life.
