Michalcová, Anna ; Merhaut, Luboš (advisor) ; Vaněk, Václav (referee)
The goal of this Bachelor's thesis is the identification and description of chosen texts with fantastic elements by Jakub Arbes, Julius Zeyer, Svatopluk Čech, Adam Chlumecký, Josef Jiří Kolár, Alfons Bohumil Šťastný and Karel Švanda of Semčice. Fantastic literature is defined as a genre in the first chapter and described in terms of its historical context in the next. The third chapter marks the aspects which are used for text interpretation (characters, time and space, motives, formal aspects). Chapters five and six introduce the context of the Czech territory in the second half of the 19th century and the categorisation of fantasy types according to Krejčí (Arbes and Zeyer, 1975). The following chapters place the chosen texts into these categories, namely Arbesian, Zeyerian and utopian fantasy. The final chapter includes a summary, which finds Krejčí's categorization as functional.
