| Sumario: | The paper deals with different depictions of the emotion of anger in the outlined historical framework of Slovak poetry in the 19th–20th centuries. The emphasis is mainly laid on poems associated with the period of growing Hungarianization and later on poems regarding WWII. The article attempts to look at anger, its function, its forms, and the oscillation of its meaning in the actions of lyrical subjects. At the same time, it suggests a new perspective on the phenomena of dehumanization and infrahumanization through various types of metaphors that refer to the emotion of anger in poetry, drawing on the theory of conceptual metaphors and the theory of abjection. Observing different forms of anger can thus reveal not only several attributes of masculine emotionality, but also how historical events affect it.
