The main problem investigated by the paper is the self in literature and its constructability. The research materials include selected works of Slovak poetry and the methodological background is provided by social constructivism of the German literary scientist and theoretician of communication Siegfried Schmidt. The paper focuses on the self in the processes of forming and receiving works of two Slovak contemporary experimental authors, Peter Macsovszky and Michal Habaj. It seems that their innovative and subversive strategies correspond to a certain degree with antirealistic assumptions of Schmidt´s methodology. A significant part of the experiments is played by challenging the category of the self, which is presented as a grammatical illusion, a linguistic game or virtual fiction. Reading of the texts suggests that the inner-textual self of a literary work created in a text interpretation is not always a sufficient category. In some cases it will be beneficial to look over the text, incorporate a literary phenomenon in the system of literature and a particular social and historical context and subsequently observe the behaviour of the performers who are involved in constructing the phenomena. This step makes it possible to examine the strategies which raise questions and verify the terminology of literary science.

The study deals with parallels and differences between interpretivism as a method of social science on one hand and literary interpretation on the other. Firstly, the author briefly outlines the essentials of interpretivism in social knowledge and shows some specific items of literary interpretation. The next parts of the study pay attention to two contemporary methodological approaches in literary science: Siegfried J. Schmidt’s empirical approach to literature and Franco Moretti’s abstract models of literary history. Both approaches instead of habitual considering a text to be the central object of interest enrich research areas of literary science with new sectors and get closer to the objects of interpretivism in social sciences.
