The paper focuses on some aspects of Arne Novák’s practice of criticism in the 1910s, especially on the issue of applying a historical perspective while judging contemporary literary production. The transformation of this perspective in the confrontation with newborn avant-garde concepts (completing the vision of a better future with the appraisal of past-time literature, above all the Czech poetry of the second half of the 19th century) is the corner-stone of Novák’s traditionalism. The performed analyses indicate, nevertheless, that the proclaimed program of the return to the tradition does not establish the ‘traditionality’ as a particular demand laid out in the reviewer’s practice; it is rather the foreknowledge that the tradition is just happening in the contemporary Czech literature.

The study deals with trilogy from Silesian village of regional writer Fran Směja: Troubled Stream (Kalný proud, 1933), What a Pity of the Country (Škoda té země, 1947), Accusation (Obžaloba, manuscript 1968). The time interval between the individual novels of the cycle leads to the need to „rewrite” the original plan in order to conform to the contemporary semantic frameworks. Thus we analyse the growing ideology and at the same time also weakening literariness (manifested through expressive imagery). The analyses present the prose of F. Směja as a whole and identify its important characteristics: schematism, didactism, fabulation insufficiency, little attention paid to surroundings and also its grandiloquence.
