V sodobni češki književnosti po letu 2000 zaznamo izrazito težnjo po ustvarjanju del, ki tematsko izhajajo iz obdobja druge svetovne vojne in na neideološki način upodabljajo travme, nastale zaradi problematičnega češko-nemškega sožitja. To se še posebej kaže v proznih delih avtoric srednje in mlajše generacije, kot so Alena Mornštajnová (1963), Hana Andronikova (1967–2011), Radka Denemarková (1968), Magdalena Platzová (1972), Jakuba Katalpa (1979) in Kateřina Tučková (1980). V prispevku romane omenjenih avtoric obravnavamo s poudarkom na načinu upodobitve zgodovinskih travm iz obdobja druge svetovne vojne v primerjavi z nekaterimi sodobnimi slovenskimi romani s tematiko druge svetovne vojne.

The article presents the Slovenian poet Srečko Kosovel (1904Kosovel ( -1926 in the context of his entire poetic oeuvre, from impressionism and expressionism to constructivism, in a complex understanding of time, space, and inter-literary contacts, with an emphasis on his individual poetic expression. In the analytical part of the article, we focus on the reception of translated Kosovel's poetry in the Czech and Slovak cultural space during the 20th and 21st centuries. Through an annotated bibliographical survey of published works, we identify three phases of the reception of his poetry in Slovenia, which are also reflected in three stages of translations into Czech and Slovak language: the first one is connected to two anthologies of Slovenian poetry published during the Second World War (1940), the second one is linked to two selections of his poetry that came out in response to the new reception and perception of Kosovel in the 1970s, and the third stage concerns translations published after 2000. We analyse the reception of the poet in translation by both looking into particulars of the selection of poems and composition of individual poetry collections and close reading of selected translations and observing translation strategies of individual translators.In doing so, we draw on analyses of poems that exist in several translated versions or in translations by different translators.

Summary In this paper, I focused on the translation work by František Benhart which, due to its extensiveness, was of crucial importance to the reception of Slovenian literature in the Czech cultural environment of the second half of the 20th century. The aim of this study is the linguistic analysis of the literary translations of selected literary works of the canon of Slovenian literature into Czech. Translation can be considered to be a cultural transposition, i. e. a transfer of the text and cultural environment from the source language into the text and cultural environment of the target language. In the analyses, I focused on some partial issues that either dominated in the particular text (expressivity, phraseology, idiomatic or proper names) or occurred across the texts analysed (realia) and in this context, I searched for his specific translation solutions. I also examined short excerpts of the original text and its translated counterpart looking for the presence of stylistically marked elements. Based on the results of individual analyses, I presented Benhart’s specific translation approaches and I attempted to summarize and indicate the basic features of his translation method. Furthermore, my second objective was to point out the possible consequences of Benhart’s translation method for the reception of the Slovenian literature in the Czech cultural environment.
