Anarchy and Evidence. Essay on Writing and Seeing
Olšovský, Miroslav ; Petříček, Miroslav (advisor) ; Fulka, Josef (referee) ; Ébert-Zeminová, Catherine (referee)
Modern literature does not create a literary work, but a process of writing that decomposes the work. Writing is anarchy. Writing causes that we constantly perceive what we want to express. Writing is evident, but it also encrypts a message. Writing endures as a record and evidence of what we want to express in words, as some persistence of the message in time. Modern poetic language strives to bring events closer to the limit of their representation and to show them in their becoming of events. Such language becomes the language of motion, cinematographic, obvious and evident language that shows the world outside a window as the world that has become a part of our perspective on the world. Capturing the time of transformation becomes a matter of writing as permanent process of "becoming". Modern literature is no longer just "speaking", but also "writing". It constantly alienates "speaking". It fixes "speaking", capturing its outside. If "speaking" disappears at the moment of silence, "writing" stays present, fixed on a paper, and we can come back to it any time to have a look at it. Writing is a permanent record - "permanent evidence", it is an aperture (Gombrowicz) and an insight (Nabokov). In addition, this "permanent evidence" of outside, which writing is, is the essence of the film. The film...

Traces of chanson of the twentieth century in the contemporary popular Belgian music
Patočka, Petr ; Ébert-Zeminová, Catherine (advisor) ; Biegel, Madeleine (referee)
The thesis aims to trace the legacy of twentieth-century French chanson (especially its Belgian branch) in the works of contemporary Belgian singers. Its first part, introduced by a brief reference to the relationship between music and poetry in the past, deals with the history of French song from its origins to the twentieth century. Then, we focus on its Belgian creators, especially Jacques Brel. In his work, we identify features present also in the contemporary layer of genre. The second part is dedicated to more profound analysis of the work of two contemporary Belgian musicians which adopt aforementioned features from Brel's songs and modify them according to their style. In this point of view, two specific songs are analysed in which Brel's legacy is subsequently revealed. Keywords chanson, Belgium, Jacques Brel, Scylla, Loïc Nottet

Reflection of French Religious Conditions and Renaissance Thinking in Margaret of Navarre's Heptametron
Beranová, Daniela ; Listíková, Renáta (advisor) ; Ébert-Zeminová, Catherine (referee)
The diploma thesis The Reflection of French Religious Conditions and Renaissance Thinking in Margaret of Navarre's Heptameron is about the life and work of Margaret of Navarre who is one of the most important personalities in French history and literature. The thesis introduces her as an enlightened woman representing significant progress in French society who was ahead of her time in many areas. This paper focuses on the analysis of her only prosaic book Heptameron. The analysis proves that this book contains not only medieval, but also renaissance characteristics. Deep philosophical and theological questions, which were actual for the religious reformation were brought up and elaborated by Margaret in Heptameron. The thesis tries to uproot an erroneous idea about the unimportant role of women in the past. It also tries to prove that it is impossible to distinguish distinct dividing lines between different periods in history. KEYWORDS Margaret of Navarre Heptameron Renaissance Reformation

Balucha, Martin ; Šuman, Záviš (advisor) ; Ébert-Zeminová, Catherine (referee)
The study entitled : La Dramaturgie de Pierre Corneille dans Médée, is concerned with the issue of baroque and classicist aesthetics in Pierre Corneille's drama, Médée. The aim of the present thesis is to consider the nature of Corneille's version of Médée. And thus not only in the context of ancient and contemporary literary critique, but also in the framework of the influence of already mentioned aesthetics. Respecting this intention, the study is divided into following chapters : 1. Introduction, 2. Drama at the interface of two aesthetics, 3. Drama created to be seen an heard, 4. Among a countless number of rules. 5. Conclusion. In chapter 2, the present study sketches a brief draft of the seventeenth century dramatic production. Consecutively it deals with the issue of baroque aesthetics and presents the conceptualization of Jean Rousset, Bruce Morissette and Raymond Lebègue. The subject of the chapter 3, arising from Raymond Lebègue's conceptualization of baroque aesthetics, deals with the representation of both death and violence on stage. Lebegue's conception was applied to concerned passages in Médée - namely Creon's suicide, murder of Créuse, Médée's infanticide and the suicide of Jason. Chapter 4 is a recapitulation of the attitude of Greek, Roman and classicist writers, as well as the one of...

Aesthetics of Loathing and Disgust in the Works of Amélie Nothomb
Izdná, Petra ; Ébert-Zeminová, Catherine (advisor) ; Fulka, Josef (referee)
Amélie Nothomb, écrivain belge contemporain, vedette des médias occidentaux, est un phénomene sociologique tres intéressant. Tout le monde connait son visage et c'est sa personnalité, avant tout, qui fait vendre. Autant qu'elle est jeune, autant elle est fructueuse et auteur a succes. Bien que ses textes soient remplis de caprices postmodernes, sophistiqués et truffés d'allusions a la littérature classique, ils sont estimés par un lectorat le plus large. Elle est analysée dans le milieu académique et lue par les adolescents. Tandis que les critiques de son oeuvre ne sont pas toujours élogieuses, Amélie Nothomb écrit de vrais best-sellers. Ses romans sont adaptés au cinéma, au théatre et meme a l'opéra {Les Combustibles), et traduits dans le monde entier. Mais évidemment la popularité ne signifie pas toujours les qualités artistiques. En quoi consiste le succes de Nothomb ? Nous avons de bons arguments pour ranger Amélie Nothomb parmi les « auteurs minores ».

Charles Baudelaire - The Flowers of Evil
Bačáková, Jitka ; Listíková, Renáta (advisor) ; Ébert-Zeminová, Catherine (referee)
The subject of this bachelor's thesis is the personality and work of Charles Baudelaire. We are interested in how Baudelaire's life and also the historical period in which he lived influenced his output. The aim of my work is to show why the Charles Baudelaire's collection of poems The folwers of evil was so exceptional in its time and why it was initially rejected by some critics as well as later positively received by others.The purpose of this bachelor's thesis is to show, how was the reaction on Baudelaire's work in Bohemia and how translations from the Czech authors differ. The thesis also discusses Baudelaire's relationship to women, especially to Jeanne Duval, and how is his cohabitation with this lifelong partner reflected in poems of the Flowers of Evil collection. We are also reflecting of Baudelaire's conception of beauty, and by that we demonstrate novelty and originality of his poetry. Charles Baudelaire's work brings new, unknown possibilities, which disrupt and change previous aesthetic norms and gives poetry a new dimension and inspiration for next generations. Keywords: Symbolisme, The Flowers of Evel, Charles Baudelaire, Jeanne Duvalová, parnasism, Black Venus, translations of poetry.
