Rules of foreign words transcription into Korean
Chrdlová, Adéla ; Mazaná, Vladislava (advisor) ; Horák, Tomáš (referee)
This work deals with the rules of transcribing foreign words into Korean. The aim is to summarize the rules, including historical development, to compare the current version with previous versions and with the rules of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. Point out the problems of transcription and provide their solutions and explore the use in everyday life with a focus on the frequency and accuracy of transcription. The work is processed in the form of descriptive analysis, where individual forms and knowledge are compared. Today's rules are more systematic than previous versions and differ from the North Korean rules. The transcription rules contain shortcomings both in the writing of long and short vowels and in the limited number of graphemes used. Foreign words are increasingly used in everyday speech, and this also leads to more frequent transcription errors. Using multiple forms for a single expression can confuse the listener.

Polyphony of thematisation. A Dialectic of Korean war narratives with regard to the genesis of partial motifs
Valošek, Matěj ; Löwensteinová, Miriam (advisor) ; Mazaná, Vladislava (referee)
The topic of this work is a multifaceted, in times permeating or partially blending view of the Korean war, a view which is, above all, disproving itself in many subnarratives. This view was constructed from various period sources, namely official and unofficial diplomatic materials, periodical press, reports of United Nations Committee and an immediate (partially also delayed) reflection of the Korean war as it was presented by the authors/the propaganda of the Eastern and Western blocs. The subject of my analysis is then argumentation, the genesis of relabeling of individual narratives and significant motives, connections between individual alternative histories as they were being built, relations between significant subordinate motives (those which are crucial for the complete narrative of the war) as they tie into the context, all of the above realized in my concept of syntax of a propagandistic picture of reality and a fictional world.

Hasalíková, Silvie Anna ; Löwensteinová, Miriam (advisor) ; Mazaná, Vladislava (referee)
The subject of this bachelor's thesis is recurring motifs in the novels of the Korean writer and playwright Ch'oe Inhun, who was one of the most eminent representatives of the Korean literary scene of the 1960s, also known as the Second Modernism. The first part of the thesis deals with the political background of the cultural scene of the 50s-60s, a brief description of the literature of the 60s, the author's life, and the response to the author's work in the context of South Korean literary criticism. The second analytical part focuses on two of his works - The Square and A Day in the Life of Mr. Gubo, Novelist. In this part of the work, I observe the composition of the novels, categories of space, and time, but most importantly I focus on the recurring motifs in his work.
