Od topológií k typológiám a späť: K problematike štruktúrovania korelácií literatúry, vedy a poznania

The complex correlations between literature and science are currently being explored in a number of disciplines and from a variety of perspectives. In German-speaking countries, systematic research in this direction has intensified since the mid-1990s. Based on the certain opacity of existing models and approaches in this complex, we find it meaningful to show how the different research directions have been differentiated so far and how they are interconnected, furthermore which categories and concepts make up competing tensions and what these tensions mean, to what extent we can really speak of competing approaches or only of possible inconsistencies in the use of terminology. However, the main intention of this paper is to correlate the basic theoretical approaches within which the interdependencies between literature and science can be modelled and to attempt a kind of syntopia, albeit in a necessarily selective form. However, the aim of this paper is not to evaluate the approaches discussed or to offer explicit recommendations. Nor will the subject of any evaluation be the already existing more or less elaborated and generalized typologizations or systematizations, to which we will refer, however, for logical reasons.
