(Dis)integration, Homecoming, Reinvestigation. The Phenomenon of Foreigner in Literature
Stančáková, Alžběta ; Hrdlička, Josef (advisor) ; Činátlová, Blanka (referee)
This thesis explores foreigner phenomenon in the following selected works: Ferenc Karinthy: Metropolis (1970), Rachid Boudjedra: Ideal Topography For a Characterised Agression (1975), Dumitru Ţepeneag: Hotel Europa (1996), and Kamel Daoud: The Meursault Investigation (2013). The first chapter focuses on the dystopian and geographically unspecified representation of the said phenomenon. The second chapter moves towards a more specific approach to the subject, examining the Algeria-France relations. The third part specifies the theme of homecoming, specifically the case of an exiled Romanian writer, contrasting with the Romanian post-revolutionary exodus to the Western Europe. The fourth part examines the literary polemic with the main character in Albert Camus's The Stranger (1942), in connection with the post-colonial situation in Algeria. All analyses focus primarily on the national and linguistic aspects.

Three Regions of František Hrubín
Stančáková, Alžběta ; Vaněk, Václav (advisor) ; Mravcová, Marie (referee)
This thesis examines selected work of František Hrubín and its connection to three significant regions in which the author lived, more precisely to Posázaví (Zpíváno z dálky, Krásná po chudobě, Země po polednách, U stolu, Romance pro křídlovku, Lešanské jesličky), Prague - district Holešovice (Hirošima, Proměna, Až do konce lásky) and South Bohemia (Můj zpěv, Srpnová neděle). The thesis deals especially with themes composing a specific image of poetic landscape and with a relation between lyrical subject (or narrator) to examined surrounding.
