The Gothic Mode in Czech Postmodern Novels at the Turn of the Millennium
Original language description
This study maps the influence of the Gothic mode in the Czech postmodern fiction, especially in the novels published at the turn of the millennium: it primarily concerns books by Václav Vokolek, Miloš Urban and Jan Jandourek. Through analytical-interpretative probes into these texts are demonstrated the main possibilities of the Gothic mode and consequences of its implementation in the contemporary Czech fiction: distortion of the perspective and blurring of the individual identity, instability of the setting, expression of civilizational and existential fears. The study illustrates capturing of the key Gothic themes in the analysed works of fiction and also the specific transformation and modification of these topics within individual author poetics.
