Vladimír Houdek
Paulus, Petr ; Merhaut, Luboš (advisor) ; Heczková, Libuše (referee)
This thesis deals with the forgotten poet Vladimír Houdek, whose only two books were published during the turn of the nineteenth century into the twentieth. Emphasis is placed on all of the available materials about his work and life. Based on the analysis of these sources and literary-historical characteristics of author's texts and their motives, my work tries to determine the place of Vladimír Houdek in Czech literature. It introduces the contemporary response of his poetry and compares it with other poet's work at the same time.

The context was also mediated by the secondary literature of the first and the second half of the twentieth century and of the present. With the kaleidoscopic interpretation, a new arrangement was created. An arrangement in which The Ass and the Shadow was still left to its natural world: to the jazz scenery, literary and artistically avant-garde, scenery which was influenced by the silent grotesque, circus clownery and cabaret shows. Attention was paid to the variations in the comicality of V+W (the drift from the so-called groundless humour to their own political satire) and to the possibilities and limits of political satire: its judgment, procedures and also, more specifically, its intertextual references. This literary and non-literary area was further extended by the dimension of economic and political-power field. It pointed to a high cultural and economical status...

The life and work of a painter Jan Zrzavý: an attempt of interpretation
HAVLÍNOVÁ, Martina
This work analysis the psychological influence of the family and social background to the life and art expression of an artist. It follows the parallels between the life and work of Jan Zrzavý and Leonardo da Vinci, the link between their sexual orientation and their work of art. This work focuses on the phenomenon of "sublimation" with respect to individual and social benefit. It tries to prove the importance of art production as the means of communication of the artist both with his own mind and with the viewer as well as with conscious and unconscious parts of his personality.

MIKOLÁŠKOVÁ, Vendula
In my bachalor thessis I focus on the person of Hanuš Bonn and his literary output. The important chapter of my thessis is the methodological part, where I work out, through the book of M. Červenka - Fikční světy lyriky, the theory of fictional word and fictional subjects. I also describe the life and output of Hanuš Bonn and mention his correspondence and the period context, which forms and influence his literary works. In next chapter I analyse his poetry from the point of view semantic, thematic and formal.I also try to find the turn in his literary output. Shortly I write about his translation of poetry of primitive nations.
