Literary Reflection of the Jewish uprising during Holocaust on the examples of works written by Ernst Sommer and Max Zweig
Jurkovičová, Taťána ; Zelená, Alena (advisor) ; Röskau-Rydel, Isabel (referee)
The purpose of this diploma thesis is to analyse the works Ghetto Warschau by Max Zweig and Revolte der Heiligen by Ernst Sommer. The thematic focus of the thesis is the Warsaw ghetto uprising. The thesis aims to present a systematic analysis and subsequent comparison of both works, with emphasis on the issue of religion. It tries to find out how Judaism together with the inconsistent approach of the Jews to the Jewish faith influenced the approach of the Jews to the revolt in the studied works. The thesis is divided into four chapters. The first chapter presents the history and principles of the Jewish religion as well as the history of the Jewish population. The second chapter focuses on the history of the Jewish population in Polish territory, also on the period of World War II and the emergence of ghettos, including the Warsaw ghetto. The next chapter presents both authors' biographies and works, with particular emphasis on common aspects of their work and life. The fourth chapter deals with the analysis itself. The conclusion of the diploma thesis contains a summary of the analysis and answers research questions.
E. T. A. Hoffmanns Nachtstücke: Der Sandmann and Das öde Haus - a comparison
Jurkovičová, Taťána ; Schneider, Thomas (advisor) ; Zbytovský, Štěpán (referee)
The purpose of this thesis is to analyse two short stories by E.T.A. Hoffmann, Der Sandmann and Das öde Haus. The goal of this thesis is to compare and contrast both stories and, by doing so, mediate a complex look at social and socio-psychological connections of the then era with regards to the contemporary. Firstly, I am going to present a closer look at the era of German romanticism, which will contribute to the understanding of Hoffmann's work. The next chapter talks about E.T.A. Hoffmann in the romantic context and his biography. The core of the thesis is represented by the practical part, where both stories are contrastively analysed. The analysis emphasises childhood trauma of both protagonists, which follows them throughout their lives.
