Abstract

The article treats the Slovene reception of Karel Hynek Mácha from the second half of the 19th century to the present. It places special focus on the dimensions associated with the canonization of the Czech Romantic poet (especially the so-called "Mácha cult"), and the discursive strategies involved in "importing" Mácha to the Slovene cultural setting as the national poet and cultural saint of a brotherly Slavic nation - the "Czech Prešeren".
