Discursive typology of characters and the contemporary Czech novel
Kudlová, Klára ; Bílek, Petr (advisor) ; Trávníček, Jiří (referee) ; Holý, Jiří (referee)
The primary aim of the present work was to design a typology of the novel characters based on the distinctive features of the genre itself. For this purpose, a close analysis of the characteristics of the genre was performed, concentrating especially on the attributes of the discourse in novel. The possibility to model the discourse on the base of symbolic and temporal principles provided the fundament for distinguishing three elementary "horizons" of characters in the discourse, thus creating a simple discursive typology. The suggested discursive typology allows viewing the characters as a complex set. Moreover, it opens way to the description of their relations and interaction (or their "constellations"). Finally, it helps to indicate their function and role with regard to the world of the novel as such. The secondary aim of the dissertation was examining the possibility of actual application of the suggested typology. This was carried out by concrete interpretation of contemporary Czech novels related by four discursive concepts. The concrete concepts were the hypothesis of "the new coming transcendentalism" within contemporary culture, authored by Zdeněk Mathauser, an autonomous concept of "the female novel", the notion of "stream of existentialist phenomena" present in the 20th century Czech...

Readers in the interent communities
Košinská, Eva ; Piorecký, Karel (referee) ; Trávníček, Jiří (advisor)
This MA thesis deals with the readers of internet literary servers in the Czech context. This topic is not thoroughly dealt with in secondary literature; therefore we will base our research mainly on observation of the problem. In the first part of the thesis, we will give account of the three most prominent Czech literary servers - Totem, Pismak and Literra. First of all, we will explain their historical genesis and differences which exist among them. Next, we will concentrate more generally on the advantages and disadvantages of publishing online and on the life of an internet community. We will present the ways of publishing on the internet and the level of its criticism. We will try to define terms such as "internet literature" and "graphomania". Finally, we will introduce some of the members of the new generation of authors, who originally began publishing on a literary server and now have their first successful publication in print. In the second part of the thesis, we will present the results of our survey, which was responded by students of the faculty of arts, authors publishing on literary servers and Czech writers. We will try to interpret their views on internet-based literature. This type of literature is regarded with general distrust and we will attempt to explain the reasons for it. To...

Reader-response aspects and motives by Jan Mukařovský
Flanderka, Jakub ; Holý, Jiří (referee) ; Trávníček, Jiří (advisor)
This work tries to illustrate the way Jan Mukařovský reflected the aspect of reader in his papers of literature, both in terms of a reader as one of the participants of literary communication, and in terms of (potentional) Mukařovský's own reader-response experience. First chapter summarizes main theses of Ingarden's phenomenological concept of literary work, in particular in connection with a term "concretization" which Felix Vodička further developed in the context of Czech Structuralism, and also presents the main reader-response theses of Constance school, which, in fact, represented the first methodology in literary theory, that put the emphasis on the reader as its central theme, and whose representatives were inspired by Felix Vodička's and Jan Mukařovský's ideas as well. The second, the third and the fourth chapters follow the development of Jan Mukařovský's thinking in three phases between 1923 and 1948. Every chapter includes an overview, offering the key ideas and papers of the period, and an analytical part, focusing on the (chosen) passages of Mukařovský'sworks and at the same time providing appearance of readerresponse aspects (i. a. on the basis of lexical level used by Mukařovský in his reasoning). Detailed monitoring of the given periods proves that not even in the early phase of...

System for Support of Dynamic Data Structures Learning
Trávníček, Jiří ; Grulich, Lukáš (referee) ; Křena, Bohuslav (advisor)
The main objective of this work is to design and implement an application that can be used as an aid for the education of programming essentials. Particularly, the attention focuses on the domain of dynamic data structures. The target application will be implemented with the use of web technologies so that it can be run in an ordinary WWW browser. First of all, a brief introduction recapitulates the data structures to be covered. Then the work summarizes the usable technologies available within the web browsers with the focus on the particular technology (which is DHTML) that will become the target platform. The most significant part of this work then discusses the design of the final application. This rather theoretical part is then followed by the description of the practical implementation. A short user manual is also included.
