| Summary: | The aim of the study Mináčove transformácie subjektu is interpretation of texts, published by Mináč from the second half of 50-ties to the end ot 60-ties. Only non-sujet or non-fiction genres (essay, reflection, literary publicistics), which were dominant in the mentioned period, were selected. The main attention is paid to 60-ties – period of Mináč’s ideological and aesthetic definition and confrontation with contemporary philosophic and aesthetic tendencies from the perspective of reforming Marxism. In this period, Mináč’s national-emancipation concept, which in 90-ties of twenty century gained program character, was formed. Texts are interpreted from synchronous as well as diachronous perspective. Apart from contemporary context, which co-formed his aesthetic and philosophical bases, there is attempt to find rhetorical strategies, which were formed on the background of discussions opened in more liberal milieu of sixties (influence of phenomenology and existencialism). In this study, the access key of Mináč’s essays is the term (idea) of subject and its transformations. Foucault’s conception of subject, which is created in the confrontation with existing power relations, is the base for analysis. From this perspective, Mináč’s relation to problem of subjectivity was placed into context with his attitude to communistic ideology, as certain form of pastoral power or medieval university.
