The lecture thematizes the authorial reception of Franz Kafka in world literature. The author concentrates on the question of 'influence' while noting a triviality of inter-textual filiations among many contemporary (esp. American) authors. The problem of authorial reception appears much more seriously in the context of active authorial reception among some Central European writers, who find it necessary to come to terms with Kafka as one of the most symptomatic phenomena of modern literature. Going beyond Kafka has thus become the program of I. Aichinger, as well as P. Handke or P. Roth, but it also forms the background of the confrontation with Kafka in E. Cantetti. Productive employment of motifs from Kafka's work as universal and global cultural topoi can be found in the Japanese writer H. Murakami, whose work Kafka on the shore has brought a new model of authorial relationship to Kafka's work, among others.

Among linguistic devices, metaphors influence our thinking and acting in a crucial way. They determine what we see and what we hide from our perception area. We primarily perceive and communicate what we have schemes for (concepts and models), but there is a wide range of perceptions that can only be adequately communicated through metaphors. On the basis of crime novels, we deal with these certain areas, which are occupied by comparison and analogies of all kinds, focusing on contents and aspects that are increasingly taken into account in this genre. We investigate the question of how key aspects of crime fiction, i.e. aspects that are associated with phenomena of crime, as well as aspects of social criticism are metaphorically conceptualised in the crime novel. Metaphors related to the phenomena of crime are also taken into account. “Opernball” is a media-critical political thriller with a multi-perspective narrative structure and a socio-critical crime novel by Austrian novelist Josef Haslinger, which draws a socio-political Picture of Austria from the mid-1990s. Based on the analysis of the metaphor in Haslingerś novel, we have located, interpreted and evaluated numerous metaphors in the following major areas: media, culture politics church/religion, individual and community/society.

The article is mapping the translations and critical reflections on German, Austrian and Swiss literature in the Slovak literary journals Slovenské pohľady, Revue svetovej literatúry and Mladá tvorba in the literary field in Slovakia of the 1960ś. Talking about these publications, we can see a competition of two models of perception of foreign literature: on one hand, the model of cultural representation and on the other hand, the model of democratic literary discussion. Especially at the end of the 1960ś the second model prevailed. In the 1960ś we can also record the entry of a new generation of the Slovak Germanists on the literary stage. Nevertheless, this generation is gradually decimated after 1968. Despite the disfavour of the following decades, the accumulated cultural capital brought book translations of modern German, Austrian and Swiss authors in the late 1980ś and 1990ś. The journal culture of the 1960ś also contributed to the making of historical links between classical literary modernity, the avant-garde ad the literary present.
