Švejk-hatások a posztmodern magyar irodalomban

The study deals with the relationship between Jaroslav Hašek’s Švejk and postmodern Hungarian literature. The first part of the study examines the characteristics of the postmodern Hungarian literature (intertextuality, metafiction, pseudonymous and mask literature, irony, parody, pastiche) and covers its most significant achievements (Peter Esterhazy, Peter Nadas, Dezső Tandori, Lajos Parti Nagy, Andras Ferenc Kovacs). The second part of the study deals with the interpretation and the rewriting of the figure of Švejk and Hašek’s novel in postmodern Hungarian literature and it analyzes the novels and poems of Peter Nadas, Peter Esterhazy, Gyorgy Spiro, Dezső Tandori, Otto Orban and Andras Ferenc Kovacs. The study is focused mainly on the analysis of the works of bohemist writer Istvan Voros as well as the postmodern translation techniques and Švejk-reworking in the texts of Lajos Parti Nagy.
