[eng][cze] William Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury was written eighty years ago but is still considered a unique and a remarkable novel. It was published in the "annus mirabilis" (Andrews 251), i.e. the miraculous year of 1929, which introduced literary works of authors who changed the world of literature substantially.

Hlavnim cilem teto diplomove prace proto bylo nalezt dosud nezkoumane hledisko jeho tvorby. William Faulkner ve svych dilech zamerne pouziva (a casta dokonce ironizuje) nabozenske l a zejmena pak biblicke motivYI ktere jiz ve svych studiich rozebirali kuprikladu John V. Hagopian (Biblical Background of Faulkner's Absalom, Absalomf) 1 nebo Jesse McGuire Coffee (Faulkner's Un-Christlike Christians: Biblical Allusions in the Novels).
