The study is based on the empirical study of literature (Siegfried S. Schmidt), so it does not introduce literature as a collection of texts to be interpreted, but as a structured collection of actions within the social system – literature. It pays attention to media and historical dimension in literary performers´ generation characteristics on young – old axis (“digital aboriginals“ – “gutenbergian fossils“, textualists). It “dusts of“ the concept of secondary orality (Walter J. Ong) and radicalises it. With the ref-erence to youth slam poetry it shows updating generation tension as difference among orality and textuality. The author calls attention to psychodynamic peculiarities of social network language using grafolect as text language as a contrast, he also points out possibilities and limits of literary “textualism“ as a media determined wad of scientific approaches.
