This article undertakes an analysis of relations between religion and art, between the subject of a literary work, which is identified by an anthropological category of homo religious, and religiosity, understood as a variously pursued artistic and aesthetic quality of a text. The author explains basic concepts by answering questions such as, what is religion, religiosity, homo religiosus. The author also tries to distinguish popular in literary studies categories of text, which are encapsulated in series of terms: existential - metaphysical - sacral – religious ones. At the same time she expresses awareness that the artistic complexity of literary works, their ambiguity showed at all levels of structural and morphological structure, not only does not facilitate such distinctions, but actually makes them difficult. By introducing the concept of a religious subtopic (subtheme), the author points out the problem of complexity of the subject of literary works. She assumes that religious contents in literature are constituted on three levels: overt religiosity, latent religiosity, and at the level of a religious subtopic (subtheme). The notion of the subtopic (subtheme) constitutes primary meanings of the text, those ones that reach principles of being and a fundamental referring of man to God or to a deity in an attitude of faith or non-faith. The subtopic (subtheme) leads the presented content in an overt and latent way. It is a content basis of the topic, which permeates it and manifests itself in it.
