Abstract

The literary production of Janko Messner constantly fluctuates between literature and agitation, his choice of the latter being international. Satirical agitational texts represent the most prominent part of his literature. The paper includes and analyzes Messner's texts with respect to universal human and political satire and grotesque, which confirms numerous alienation on the level of the writer's verbal expression.
