The article comments exil and poetic languages as concepts which could not be linked in terms of dependence (the expected dependence on real autor´s biography, or social, and political events). The confrontation co-relates the ethical arguments of exil as deterministic view and phenomenological turn to fiction as content of memory and experience how to create the world with words; the paper compares texts be poets Ivan Diviš and Ludmila Kroužilová.
The aim of our study is to review the meaning of the term “poeticism” and consider its vitality within contemporary poetry. It identifies specific features of contemporary Czech poetic language that distinguish it from the commonly spoken and written language. For this purpose, we utilise data collected in the Corpus of Contemporary Czech Poetry, using a keyword-extraction tool. We argue that poeticisms in contemporary poetry can be identified based on their frequency as keywords which significantly exceeds the frequency of the same words in common language. Our study concludes by drawing a distinction between two types of poeticisms: functional ones are defined by their frequency, while essential ones are used exclusively in poetic language.
