The female authors and their importance for the contemporary Czech literature
KARPÍŠKOVÁ, Aneta
The diploma thesis deals with Czech contemporary female authors who focus on Czech-German relations in the 20th century and are engaged in the German-speaking area. These are Katerina Tuckova, Radka Denemarkova and Jakuba Katalpa. Each of the authors approaches the Czech-German topics with different motivations and brings a new perspective on the issue, as evidenced by a detailed analysis of the novels The Expulsion of Gerta Schnirch, Money from Hitler and The Germans. The aim of the work is to create three distinctive portraits and to name the same and different tendencies of the mentioned authors. Attention is focused on their biography, social activities and opinions, which are necessary for understanding the context.

Holinková, Lucie ; Knotková - Čapková, Blanka (advisor) ; Kalnická, Zdeňka (referee)
This thesis constitutes the gender analysis of the Kateřina Tučková's work Žítkovské bohyně. The methodological and theoretical part defends feminist literary criticism as a legitimate approach to the text, represents a method of feminine writing and reading and examines the question of literary canon. Besides it analyses archetypes, which are demonstrated with using classical feminist texts, which depict typological attributes of characters as well as some model situations of the novel. The characters are related to archetype of witch, Demeter narrative and seductress, which all are interdependent. Except for archetypes, the thesis also discusses the issue of stereotypical display of feminity and masculinity, spirituality connected with women characters, interprets nature of myths and reflects mutual relationship among characters of the novel in the gender system. The proper analysis of female and male characters focuses on the main female characters, which are influenced by male partners and theme of the curse, which is the key for this analysis.

This thesis called The media reactions to Katerina Tuckova's novel Zitkovske bohyne outlines the life and work of novelist Katerina Tuckova and analyses responses to her third novel. It deals with professional reviews as well as reader's reactions on servers and social networks.

We focus on the content similarities and relationship between those two pieces of work, also on the methods of work that the authors used. The thesis also analyses the circumstances of a dispute between Katerina Tuckova and Jiri Jilik and also between Katerina Tuckova and some inhabitants of Moravske Kopanice. We mostly think about the relationship between fictional and fact level of a historic novel. In the thesis not only we use the books of both authors but also interviews with Katerina Tuckova and articles from periodicals. The reviews are mostly from periodics Host, Tvar, Lidove noviny and MF Dnes. We also use interner servers dealing with this topic. In the theoretical part we derive from works od Jonathan Culler, Lubomir Dolezal, Pavel Janousek etc. The interview with Katerina Tuckova is attached.¨
