Kernev Štrajn’s book discusses the concepts of alegory, symbol, and fragment not only as rhetorical figures and literary genres, but as textual strategies that imply a certain experience of art and the world. The historical outline of the concepts discussed goes back to the early Christian and medieval notions; in some respects, in contemporary poststructuralist theories that renovate the notion of allegory, it is possible to discern a striking resemblance to the old insights. A chapter is devoted to the comparative analysis od Dante's Divine Comedy and Prešeren’s Baptism at the Savica (1836) with regard to the relationship between symbol and allegory and their genre idenitities. The concluding chapter connects the preliminary findings and indicates how it would be possible to use the concept of allegory in the analysis of contemporary literary texts.
