This study deals with the short stories by the Slovak writer Milo Urban from the second half of the 20th century, part of which was published in the collection 'Z ticheho frontu' (1932). The authoress of the study shows that the structure of these works was influenced by the fact that they were originally published in the newspapers and the journals. The base of the study is the interpretation of Urban's short stories published in the journals and the papers - 'Slovak', 'Slovensky dennik a Slovenska politika' in the second half of the 20s of the 20th century. On the background of social position of the mountain dwellers Urban deals with their personal balancing with a difficult fate. Urban places the elementary views of an ordinary man coming out from the authentic christianity against relativism and the wrong values. Regarding the recipient the writer emphasized a model 'sujet' and he included the elements of a fairy-tale, calendar prose and sentimental prose well-known to wide group of the readers. A complicated semantics was replaced by the unambiguous message. A man in this prose is a part of the village society and is first of all a moral being. The authoress comes out from the theses in which meet the ideas of the christianity with the idea of the myth of soil, and the idea of unanimism (fusion of an individual with a collective soul).

The article deals with one of the main streams in Danish contemporary literature, namely the realistic minimalism.Minimalism appeared in Danish contemporary literature at the beginning of the 1990-ties. It was developed by the first generation of writers, who graduated at that time from The Danish School of Writers (Forfatterskolen), founded in 1987 in Copenhagen by the Danish modernist poet and literary critic Poul Borum. The first graduates from The Danish School of Writers wrote mainly short stories, characterized by economy of words and focus on surface description. Due to their form as well as subject matter the works written by Danish minimalists are often called for snapshots of everyday life in nowadays Denmark. Soon after that great outburst of minimalism in Danish literature from the early 90'ties the critics proclaimed the so-called “return to reality” in Danish contemporary literature. Owing to that remarkable phenomenon minimalist literature composed by Danish contemporary writers is often described as a renewed version of realism, whose roots go back to the 70-ties and the 80-ties of the 19th century. The present article gives a brief characteristics of the main features typical of the Danish minimalist realism, which have been discussed in the light of the first wave of realistic literature that came to Denmark in the second half of 19th century. In this way the author compares two related, but though different literary techniques practised by the two generations of Danish realists: the contemporary on the one hand, among whom the author mentions such names as Christina Hesselholdt, Helle Helle and Solvej Balle, as well as their forefathers on the other, where the author respectively refers to Herman Bang, Jens Peter Jacobsen and Henrik Pontoppidan. On the basis of this comparison the author seeks to point out the similarities and the differences between the two series of literary accounts of the Danish reality with regard to their genre specification, form, language and themes. Finally, the author considers the role of minimalism in the contemporary Danish literature and mentions some possible sources of the great interest that minimalist literature still enjoys in Denmark.

The 1960s meant an important cultural U-turn from the realistic method of depiction to alternative approaches and means of expression in Slovak art and literature, too. The decade brought new classification of values as well as a new philosophical view of the reality. In the conditions of our country the anthropocentric pattern of the world´s depiction came into use, the human became the centre of its attention. The key prosaic works written in this period confirm the use of the anthropocentric pattern and they go even further benefitting from it in various ways and establishing individual styles of their authors. Rudolf Sloboda and Pavel Vilikovský used short prosaic works of the late 1960s to demonstrate new text strategies involving readers in creating a text experience. The side effect of such efforts, as the present study tries to show, is not only spontaneous presence of relevant poet logical and philosophical affinities with the contemporary European literature (new novel) but also a modified relationship to artistic self-referentiality of a literary text (writing as an alternative to the reality).
