Description The author of the present study expresses the thesis according to which the period of the first Czechoslovak Republic represented the beginning of ta big, rather hidden synthesis leading to constructing the worldwide reputation of the Czech literature and to a positive qualitative change of the Slovak literature. The synthesis consisted in the permeation of the leftist avant-garde and Catholic spirituality the author regards not only as contradictory currents, but also as complementary ones with deep links. The permeation does not consist only in mutual personal relations of literary creators (Nezval, Halas, Deml, Zahradníček, Holan and others), but also in the permeation of ideas and mainly forms and aesthetic foundations. He constructs his thesis on the conception of the dual development of both English and Czech literatures once expressed by René Wellek. The way to the wordlwide reputation of Czech literature is based – due to the author – on the construction of this strong, intensive and complementary, multi strand complex anticipating the so-called postsecularity which has been manifested in the whole course of the 20th century, often even earlier, but more intensively since the second half of the 20th century as a certain form of the return to the religious social consciousness.
