'Podróz zimowa' (Journey In Winter) is a series of songs written by Stanislaw Baranczak as lyrics for Franz Schubert's music. It shows concern especially on problems of the space creation in literary works, as the lyrical subject's relationships with the world and the lyrical subject himself are shaped by the surrounding landscape.The series provokes reading it in the context of the romantic topos of a wanderer, concerning the romantic ways of categorizing space. Nevertheless, it is impossible to interpret the lyrics without considering two main Baranczak's interlocutors occuring in the poems. These are Schubert's music and Müller's series of poems 'Winterreise', both of which once are the points of reference, but only to allow the lyrical subject to distance himself from them later on. Space traversed by the modern traveller defnitely differs from the landscapes typical for Müller's poetry, however, it seems that they are fundamental for the lyrical subject's self-identification in the contemporary world. The more the subjective and lyrical subject becomes to depend on the vision of the world, the more difficult becomes its self-identification. Minimized, in comparison with romantic songs, the presence of nature makes the area where one could have settled and felt safe vanishes. Therefore, the journey becomes the only chance to meet the surrounding world and to be initiated. It is the journey that allows for distinguishing oneself as an individual and, what follows, finding one's own identity.

In the paper idyll is presented in three different uncovers. First of all – “degraded idyll”, connected with the phenomenon of “orientalism”, described for the first time by Edward Said. Secondly – “retrospective idyll”, updating the Arcadian Myth and finally – the idyll as a peculiar panacea for the trauma of the otherness. Laskomerský’s travel jotting is analysed through the prism of post-colonial studies as well as phenomenology. In this paper travel is related to the specific kind of experience, both cognitive and emotional, and it is as well a very important part of romantic cultural paradigm, especially voyage to the Orient. Orient was disturbingly different, fascinating and it helped to demarcate the border of one’s own culture and identity. Laskomerský’s travel book is an assemblage of the discourses and is built on the basis of contrast, on both style and content level. The Slovak author is torn between true admiration of beauty and exoticism of the Constantinople and the anxiety, as well as rejection of the foreign culture.

Józef Kremer, a professor of philosophy and history of art at the Jagiellonian University, travelled through Styria in 1852, on his way to Italy. He described this journey in a work entitled A Journey to Italy (published between 1859 and 1864), which was inspired by Goethe’s Italian Journey. In Styria’s idyllic, bucolic image he noticed harmonious, colourful pictures modelled on Jacques Delille’s descriptive poem. He described not only the picturesque area around the Mur Valley (and the Mura River), but also his fellow travellers. He was interested in local legends and folklore tradition. However, the conventional and idyllic Styrian Alps, deprived of the romantic mountain horror and mysticism, seemed tiresome to him. That is why the Styrian episode in Kremer’s journey plays an insignificant role in the research into the Alpine motif in literature.

(Slovak title: Tematicke diferencie v koncepte referencneho (moderneho) a autoreferencneho (postmoderneho) narativu alebo ako si porozumiet s literaturou). This study is a contribution to the research of chosen Slovak proses written in the second half of 20th century from the viewpoint of the thematic-topological research and structural-semantic interpretation. It is based on the characteristics of sujet-fabula as well as text narrative qualities. The interpretation framework is established by means of a journey chronotope and the topical circumstances of an epic narrative derived from it, which occur on three levels of the thematic structure of an epic narration. The author defines them as the synopsis, the scenery and the digression and within each she differentiates various narrative modalities: from ostensively mimetic to self-referentially discursive. The research focuses on the verifying referential and self-referential elements of narration in connection with the research of epic prose as a thematic-topological event related to travelling and changes during the journey. From the methodological viewpoint, the study takes a thematic approach to the literary material, because it regards the material as adequately communicative and able to convey our experience with a literary text as an object of interpretation in diachronic cultural-historical context. In order to obtain material to study, texts of R. Sloboda, V. Sikula a P. Vilikovsky were used, all the writers being of the author's regular interest.

Italian artistic journeys belong to the most important themes in European art-historical writings, since the artistic production of Italian centres performed in a long term the 'codified' model and basis for the rest of Europe. Despite this, the phenomenon has not been systematically worked-out in Slovak art history. The present study is one of the first attempts of Slovak art history to map the travels of artists coming from former Upper Hungary (today Slovakia) in the 19th century - e.g. Karol Marko Sr., Karol Ľudovít Libay or Dominik Skutecký - to Rome, Naples, Florence and Venetia. It presents partial results of the current research executed mainly in Italian and local archives.
