A STRUCTURE OF THE RECEPTION MODEL OF KAREL HYNEK MÁCHA

Abstract

Based on the reception of Karel Hynek Mácha, we hereby suggest a structural model which comprises four fields of interaction: art (i.e. an author’s overall literary work) – recipient, recipient – lifetime, lifetime – author, and author – art. This model intends not only to impart structural clarity to the reception of Mácha, but also to offer chief points of orientation in the analysis of analogous problems related to other authors and other literary-historical periods.
