This article examines the reception and influence of Walt Whitman’s poetry in Slovak literature from the early 20th century to the present day. Through thorough analysis of translations, tribute poems, and para-textual material, the author traces Whitman’s journey into Slovak literary consciousness, highlighting key moments of engagement and adaptation. From early translations in the 1950s under state socialism to contemporary retranslations, the article maps out Whitman’s evolving presence in Slovak poetry, shedding light on the challenges and opportunities of translating his work in different socio-political contexts. Furthermore, it explores the complexities of literary translation and the shifting dynamics of cultural capital in post-socialist Slovakia, where Whitman’s enduring appeal continues to resonate within a fragmented and ever-changing literary landscape.
