The contribution focuses on the question: to what extent is the Slovak literary canon grounded in the literary and aesthetic value of the texts it contains? In what sense, or, to what extent is the canon determined by eventual extra-literary, mainly ideological, matters? The paper does not examine the problem in its full extent; it rather demonstrates this upon the synecdochical choice of exemplary literary works, especially on the poetry by P. O. Hviezdoslav who emblematically embodies the national literary classic, as well as on the poetry by J. Ondruš. The paper points to a more general tendency in the practice of contemporary Slovak literary historiography which tends to classify work as canonical, disregarding its aesthetic value – structured at the level of intensional meaning – and considers only its extensional semantics. To be more precise, it rather follows an “extensionally represented” content – mediated in its different meta-textual form – which, on this level, is interpreted from extra-literary, mainly ideological, standpoints.
