Abstrakt (ENG):

The article deals with the poetic work of Vlado Janček. Through the category of comedy, it describes his authorial poetics, which differ in quality in individual collections. We consider the first two collections (Motýľov, 1999; Kocúrov, 2009) are aesthetically effective, mainly thanks to the effective use of various types of comedy, such as irony, parody, jokes, and nonsense. These are minimalist poems based on simplicity and improvisation. In terms of genre, they oscillate between short poems, aphorisms, and jokes with so-called black humor. They are also based on the disruption of established phrases (proverbs and sayings) and ideas. We consider the third collection (Ahoj krv, 2019) to be less aesthetically effective. Thematically, it shifts from universal human themes to the personal problems of the subject, often with a sentimental result.
