Visualisation of crime in the Normalization cinema
Škopková, Andrea ; Urban, Michal (advisor) ; Agha, Petr (referee)
67 Visualisation of crime in the Normalization cinema Abstract The thesis deals with the question to what extent and in what way the Czechoslovak Normalisation through state-controlled cinema influenced the portrayal of crime/criminality in crime and detective films. The present work attempts to capture the schemes and boundaries within which the dramaturgy of Czech film genre production moved during the so-called Normalisation. The work is based on comparing available data and studies on real crime with its filmic portrayal. The thesis includes a chapter devoted to interdisciplinary, especially sociological, contexts of researching crime and its reflection in society. Another part of the text includes the historical and legal-historical context of the topic under study and the transformations of criminal law. Together with a description of some selected motifs of the film narratives and with an assessment of the extent to which and in what ways selected criminological topics (e.g. recidivism, the problem of social pathologies) are reflected in contemporary professional literature (or statistics) and film, the thesis illustrates with specific examples the ways in which the ideology of Normalization may manifested itself in film productions primarily for the entertainment of the audience (the public).

"Normalization" view on the cinema: Jan Kliment and "Rudé právo" 1971-1973
Škopková, Andrea ; Klimeš, Ivan (advisor) ; Bednařík, Petr (referee)
This study is based on reviewing Jan Kliment's journalism in the context of wide social, cultural and political conditions of the so-called Normalization in Czechoslovakia. Jan Kliment was an exponent of the communist regime journalism, specialized on cultural events. The sample of his articles published in the Rude Pravo newspapers between years 1971 and 1973 illustrates the time-influenced (or biased) approach to reviewing both Czechoslovakian and foreign motion pictures. The study is trying to summarize and to describe the film criticism lineament under the ideological power of the Communist Party in the times of Normalization, actually in the beginning seventies. The text includes (apart from the presentation of Kliment's movie pictures reviews) a brief introduction to the history of the Czechoslovakian leftist film criticism, general facts about the Czechoslovakian media landscape in the era of the so-called Prague Spring and the subsequent Normalization and information about Kliment's career.

Media transformations of Pepina Rejholsova
Škopková, Andrea ; Sekera, Martin (advisor) ; Bednařík, Petr (referee)
The work reflects one of the most popular fictional character of the first half of the 1930s, Pepina Rejholcová. Pepina Rejholcová, whose author Frantisek Voborsky, an important personality of Czech comics, has appeared in the Czech press at the turn of the 1920s and 1930s - first as a side character of humorous drawings or illustrations for popular song lyrics. Soon after, she reappeared on the silver screen, on pages of children's books, or in children's rooms in the form of toys and sweets. The transformations of the originally illustrated archetype caused by the switch among the various media are the center of interest for this work. In this context, the aspects of intermediality and transmediality are examined, both in special and general terms. It is mainly the extent to which the originally cartoon character changes, and whether the content of the message, the narrative patterns and the concept of humor is changing as well. In broader context, the work is a contribution to the theme of media and institutional integration. The work is divided into five parts and a conclusion. The first part outlines the theoretical viewpoints, the second part is devoted to Pepina Rejholcova's character, the third part reflects media representations, the fourth discusses essential characteristics of typical...
