The study deals with the prose writer Martin Kukučín´s „Prague period“, namely the troubles with adaptation of his representative psychological prose Neprebudený (Unawakened) in the Czech environment. The prose writer G. Preissová – later the author of the works such as Gazdina roba (Woman housekeeper) a Její pastorkyně (Her stepdaughter) – wishing to introduce Kukučín to Czech literature in her retold version titled Nemoudrý (Unwise) transformed his prose with many levels of meaning into a one-level text of popular light fiction. The study presents this adaptation mechanism and draws attention to the meaning shifts and reductions in comparison with the original. At the same time it describes the relationship between the Slovak prose writer and the Czech cultural environment. The author of the study builds on the methodological stimuli of W. Schmidt´s narrative transformation, which presents the mechanism of dealing with the text in the process of adaptation – digest, which is characterised as „accelerated narrative“. The study is concluded with the finding that inspirations by Kukučín´s type of prose could later be seen in the Czech literary environment.
