Zusammenfassung:This paper analyses Danilo Kiš's short stories "The Encyclopedia of the Dead" and "The Mirror of the Unknown" as allegorical metafictions. Our paper starts from the poetics of postmodernism presented by Brian McHale in his study, "Postmodernist Fiction", and the description of metafiction undertaken by the British scholar Patricia Waugh in her work "Metafiction: The Theory and Practice of Self-conscious Fiction". The demonstration is based on an analysis of both the problematics and (especially) the poetics of the two literary texts. In other words, we will try to show that there is a convergence between the main themes and motifs that the stories address and the set of artistic procedures that allows the two texts to be interpreted as allegorical metafictions that are indebted to postmodernist poetics.
