Allusions of fantastic German literature of the romantic period in fantastic proses of Jakub Arbes and Julius Zeyer
Cingrošová, Veronika ; Brožová, Věra (advisor) ; Mocná, Dagmar (referee)
- Aj In this work we focused on the literary genre of the fantastic short story, a genre that has its specific features, working with mystery and ambiguity, and relying on the interactive relationship between the reader and the text. We looked at terms fantastic literature, fantastic short story and we studied which attributes are typical for this literature (such as individual motifs, composition, atmosphere and language-specific resources). Than we were looking for the presence of these attributes in individual works of selected authors. The most important representatives of Czech fantastic stories were compared with selected German Romanticists who were the inception for our authors who followed them and in whose work we find the fantastic phenomena. Then we tracked the similarities and differences in work of these authors.

Female Characters in Select Jakub Arbes' Romanettos
Majorová, Eliška ; Stejskalová, Anna (advisor) ; Hník, Ondřej (referee)
This bachelor's thesis' content consists of an analysis of three romanettos - Sivooký démon, Zázračná Madona and Akrobati - and in particular a characterisation of their main female characters - Regina, Ismena and Eldora - also with regard to their literary uniqueness.

This serves as a basis for analysis of select romanettos and for determining attributes typical for the genre. The female protagonists in chosen romanettos are described in detail with the help of citations. Some techniques used in portrayal of female characters are in Arbes' work identical with the techniques used on male characters (choice of name, education sufficient for scientifically solvable plot), but the majority is unique. All female protagonists are beautiful, mysterious and good, able to bond with people and to give empathy. Despite of originating in poor conditions, they have tremendous power in influencing their surroundings solely with their personality. They are alluring also in their perceived mystery, which engulfs them and which disappears only at the moment of their death. The most interesting thing is their character. Despite being good, modest, grateful, kind, patient and devoted in...
