Abstract
The article deals with narrative empathy as an important phenomenon in the sense of sharing someone else's feelings and perspective, in a literary, social and educational context. We briefly outline the context of Ivona Březinová's work and other texts related to the topic of bullying in children's and youth literature.
We introduce the concept and techniques of narrative empathy, paying special attention to the expression of emotions. We analyze the procedures involved in narrative empathy in The Escape of Kryšpín N.
An important role is played, among other things, by the confrontation of the main character's self-concept and perception by other characters, the expression of emotions through showing, and the combination of contemporary and retrospective narration.
