| Description | There are many perspectives that we may adopt when writing a history of literary theory and criticism and, in general, a history of literary thought. One of the approaches that I consider stimulating is the mapping of personal relationships between various literary scholars. The study deals with the relationship between two literary scholars: Jan Mukařovský and Roman Jakobson. The study analyses their transformation in the broad context of their life and work, but also in the context of the political and cultural events that took place during their lifetime. The central point of the study is an outline of the epistemological basis of Mukařovský´a and Jakobson´s structural poetics. The study can serve not only to illustrate the rises and falls of one friendship, but also the rises and falls of structuralism – one of the most prominent approaches in modern literary theory — an approach whose origin is closely linked with the history of Central and Eastern Europe. |
