The study deals with the way of the selection and apropriation of modern European literature in Czech journalism. The Czech point of view was formed by the aesthetics of Parnassism, and the modern literary movements were interpreted in this context. The Czech debate on Modernity was marked by personal animosities and, after 1900, it was sceptical towards the productive possibilities of this type of literature.
