Karel Havlíček's German letters in Czech translations
Kukrechtová, Barbora ; Martínek, František (advisor) ; Mareš, Petr (referee)
This thesis analyzes the Czech translations of Karel Havlíček's German letters carried out by Ladislav Quis (1903) and Miroslav Novotný (1941), and the revisions made by Jaroslava Janáčková (1995) in Novotný's translation. In the introduction, the present-day situation concerning the publication of Havlíček's correspondence is outlined. A brief description of the state of the Czech language at the time of creation of Havlíček's Czech letters followes the introduction. The analysis itself focuses especially on the possible influence of the original language on the translations and the tendency to avoid such influence. Therefore, in the theoretical parts of individual chapters, some terminology regarding German grammar is explained. Language resources used by individual translators are also compared with the means common at the time of translation and in Havlíček's Czech letters to determine the extent to which the respective translations display tendency to archaize or modernize the language. The obtained data serve as a basis for determining the impression of identicity of the writer in the Czech letters and in the translations from German.
