DRAMATIST VILIAM PAULINY-TOTH

EN
A young Slovak theatrologist puts his mind into the area of so far little explored heritage of the Slovak dramatic literature of 19th century. In connection to the important sociable movement that occured in Europe in 1848/49, and whose component was also a national-emancipation fight of the Slovak intellectuals, that had culminated into a national-liberational revolution, many personalities involved in the fight for the Slovak national rights, devoted themselves also to writing theatre plays and organization of the theatre performances. A dramatist Viliam Pauliny-Toth (1826-1877) belongs to those dramatists of the romanticism period, about whom the theatrological literature remains silent, or are mentioned just marginally. Out of his drama art it is predominantly 'Human Comedy', which has been perceived more in the context with Goethe´s 'Faust'. Another play published in magazine article form was 'Ball Kocsurkovsky'. Again, only a brief remark exists relating to the fact that the author of this comedy is Pauliny-Toth. The same applies to the comedy 'Pan Slav'. Completely outside of the theatrologists' attention was found the tragedy 'Matús' (Matush). There are many problems, or rather shoals, that result in a fact that there is little possibility of including - even if not very extensive - work of V. Pauliny-Toth into the certain lines. The reason is the poetic nature of the romantic drama art, whose the main feature was the heterogenity, complexity, patulousness. But - the picture of the Slovak romantic drama was co-created also with the help of Viliam Pauliny-Toth.

The Slovak dramatist and prosaist Julius Barc-Ivan (1909-1953) was in the period of the Second World War working besides other pieces also on a drama 'Neznamy' (Unknown). In this drama with three acts seven male characters - representatives of the city headed by Mestanosta - are featuring. The character of unknown is never shown on the stage. The unknown is taking a concrete image mainly through attitudes of other characters taken towards him. The drama 'Unknown' was produced and performed by three theatre bodies. In 1944 the Slovak Chamber Theatre in Martin (directed by Jan Martak, stage settings by Emil Mankovicky), in October 1969 'Unknkown' was introduced by the Regional Theatre in Nitra (directed by Karol Spisak, stage settings by Frantisek Perger), and in Bratislava the drama was introduced in 1995 (directed by Pavol Haspra, stage settings by Vladimir Suchanek). The TV staging version had its first run in 1992 (directed by Martin Kakos).
