Paralely mezi slovinským a českým dramatem 60. let

Abstract

This article concentrates on the parallels between Slovene and Czech poetic drama in the nineteen sixties. I recognise similarities between the playwrights Dane Zajc, Josef Topol, and Gregor Strniša. Comparative analysis of Zajc’s and Topol’s texts exposes similar intimate themes, such as motives of love and the phenomena of time. The most vivid comparison is between Topol’s play Slavík v večeří and Strniša’s play Ljudožerci. In both plays, the dramatic plot is constructed as grotesque and absurd play. The dramatic perspective shows the experience of the absurd in the world.

Namen prispevka je tematizirati sorodnosti med slovensko in češko poetično dramo v šestdesetih letih 20. stoletja. V primerjalni analizi so izpostavljene vzporednice med dramami Daneta Zajca in Josefa Topola ter Josefa Topola in Gregorja Strniše. V Zajčevih in Topolovih dramah se pojavljajo podobne intimne teme in motivi, kot sta fenomen ljubezni in časa. Najbolj izrazite so sorodnosti med Topolovo igro Slavček za večerjo in Strniševimi Ljudožerci. Pri obeh se dogajanje razvije v groteskno, absurdno igro, ki že izraža doživetje in spoznanje o absurdu v svetu.
