Description The author of the present article occupies himself with the boundaries of historical epochs and the limits of interpretation on the material of this year's jubilee of three writers reflecting the Czech cultural milieu—Jiří Wolker, Franz Kafka, and Karel Kryl—mainly focusing on the issue of the Liblice conference on Franz Kafka (1963), especially concerning František Kautman's paper concentrating more or less on the connection between Kafkian poetics and the tradition of the grotesque and absurd trajectory in the evolution of the Russian 19th-century literature and on his work dealing with Kafka in general. The prevalent research trend has been linked with Kafka's impact upon other national literatures, including Slavonic ones, but might be quite prolific to manifest also the reverse side of the issue, i.e. the problem of how Kafka was inspired by other literary phenomena associated with the groundbreaking, pioneering role of the originally formed Russian mature realism of the Golden Age, especially with the so-called Russian hoffmannists (Gogol, Dostoevsky).
