Reflection of Jáchym Topol´s Fiction Work in Literary Criticism in the 1990s
PALOUNKOVÁ, Lucie
In this thesis, we will focus on the comparison of the Czech works of literary criticism and reviews reflecting on the work of Jáchym Topol which was published in the 1990s. The aim of this work will be to describe the formation of models of scientific discourses oriented towards the author's work. The given texts of Czech literary critiques will be seen as a product of contemporary events and thoughts, and the work will be written with the ambition to describe whether and how critics reflect on the author's pre-revolutionary work in relation to his poetics formed in the 1990s. The analysis will be preceded by a definition of the concept of representation and an introduction to the life of the author and his important moments that shaped the form of his poetics during both the pre- and post-revolutionary periods.

The Ironic Picture of the Society in the Work of Geoffrey Chaucer and Graham Greene
LINDUŠKA, František
This diploma thesis deals with the ironic concept of the society in the texts of two great and important, yet historically very different figures, Geoffrey Chaucer and Graham Greene. Despite this historical difference, the thesis aims at the discovery of similarities in the expression of their personal attitudes towards the society in the particular period. In Chaucer's case we discuss the late-medieval English society, which stands on the edge of a new historical era and is a part of a great social change in the history of humankind. Greene's social picture is more oriented on the individual human being fighting with the modern world of the 20th century and experiencing the existential crisis caused by the two world wars. We try to follow the ironic voice that is reflected in the work of both authors and thus creates a significant character of their texts. The aim of this thesis is to find a common topic, which would mirror their ironic voice in the context of social criticism.
