INTERACTION OF CANONS: CONFLICT OR SYMBIOSIS? REREADING AND RELATIVITY OF TRADITIONS IN DAVID GEMMELL Ś “TROY SERIES” AND DAN SIMMONS Ś “HYPERION CANTOS”

100%

Nagy P. H. , Keserű J.

nr 3

87 – 99

The starting point of the study is the conflict between classical and alternative canon. Some prominent texts of speculative fiction can notably stage this conflict by confronting us with the experience that mainstream literature and popular registers are inseparable. The reading of these texts can prove that the aesthetical canon is not equivalent to cultural elitism. In contemporary literature, some works of speculative fiction – works of science fiction and fantasy in particular – support this idea. The study – by reading David Gemmell ś “Troy Series” and Dan Simmons ś “Hyperion Cantos” – exemplifies the fact that the principle of innovation does not necessarily destruct the existing canon but integrates itself into the canon while rearranging it. The works of Gemmell and Simmons employ such poetical and rhetorical techniques that are able to modify the system of expectation created by the evoke genres and also lead us to reconsider the classical literary canon. They both indicate that an artificially created cultural hierarchy can be set in motion by rereading works of popular literature.
