Noticeable, yet unnoticed „moumfullness of Dobromysl'

The literary historical reflections of Palkovič´s manifesto poem Vidění Dobromyslovo /Vision of Dobromysl/ to date have traditionally featured references to Classical poetic characteristics. Seeing it as a typical Classical ode to virtues and moral values is not quite accurate, though. This is because Palkovič´s poetic message is also very emotional and vivid. He builds his images in a very careful and well thought out manner with regard to the subjective world of the hero, which suggests the influence of other poetic techniques already anticipating the coming of Romanicism.
