The Crime in the Czech Novel in the 90th of the 19th Century.
CHADTOVÁ, Miroslava
The aim of the Diploma thesis is to examine diverse modes of fictional depiction of crime. The thesis demonstrates the basic genre differentiation of this specific theme using the suggested corpus of selected canonical literary works. This diachronic overview is accompanied by the synchronic research which focuses on the occurrence of crime in the context of Czech literary production of the 1890s. In the second part of the thesis, the particular features of crime-based literature are presented on the example of Czech novel which was published during this selected period - Kalibův zločin by Karel Václav Rais. In this section, both period and recent critical reception of Kalibův zločin is discussed and its publication frequency presented. The subsequent part of the thesis deals with comparative analysis of Kalibův zločin and Crime and Punishment by Fjodor Michajlovič Dostojevskij which is based on selected narratology reference books. Based on this narrative comparison, the thesis exposes structural and narrative diversity concerning literary portrayal of crime.
Image of Everydayness in Teréza Nováková's Short Stories Úlomky žuly and Karel Václav Rais' Prose Skleník
Šteffelová, Denisa ; Mocná, Dagmar (advisor) ; Brožová, Věra (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the depiction of everyday life in Teréza Nováková's short stories Úlomky žuly and in the prose of K.V. Raise Skleník. Its aim is to determine how the authors of realism work with such details of everyday life and in what way they incorporate them into the text. The first part of the thesis focuses on the theoretical outline of realism with the emphasis on two of the newest concepts. Moreover, Barthes' reality effect is accentuated, based on which the function of details affecting the credibility of the image is being examined in the second part. The practical part deals with the analysis of the already mentioned details, which are divided into five main categories (housework, eating habits, clothing, visits and deviations from everyday life). The comparison of the authors also takes into account the gender specification of both male and female writers, which was studied by Marcin Filipowicz. Based on the results obtained, it can be stated that Nováková's everyday life details primarily fulfil a documentary function (in accordance with her ethnographic activities). Rais's style is therefore more interesting as the everyday life details do not only have a characterizing function but they also depict the previously mentioned reality effect.
