The paper examines the cultural context of spiritual creative work of Slovak Catholic Modernism authors that is composed of values and practice of liberal society. It was Ladislav Hanus in the 1940s who took a critical stance towards the form of Catholic culture that would close in on itself as a ghetto and defend itself against secular society in the manner of defensive-offensive culture wars. The second section of the paper provides an interpretive probe into the spiritual poetry of Janko Silan. It focuses on a literary and theological analysis of his poem Slobodný zajatec [The Free Captive]. The interpretation has shown that the poem is built on paradoxes that create a foundation for the dynamics of the relationship between man and God. The author has thus uncovered a dimension of depth within which man learns to live alongside the paradoxes that life brings. This way, spiritual poetry offers a creative spiritual alternative to liberal values that are being hollowed out in a vertical plane.
