Frývaldský, Pavel ; Pospíšil, Ctirad Václav (advisor) ; Mohelník, Tomáš (referee)
Anglická anotace The Christology in the work of Joseph Ratzinger Pavel Frývaldský This thesis presents an analysis of the significant Christological works of Joseph Ratzinger. The aim of this work is to find and examine the constant features and development of Ratzinger's Christological reflection. The comparative analysis of his work was done from two points of view: the work of Ratzinger during his academic engagement and the work of Ratzinger as Cardinal and head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. In a diachronic analysis we examine biblical sources, quotations of Fathers, medieval authors and present-day theologians. In the diachronic analysis we research these areas of interest: Christological titles, the theology of incarnation, the mystery of Jesus' life, the theology of the cross and the interpretation of resurrection. From the analysis of the Christological titles we learned, which titles Ratzinger considers to be important, how he comprehends them and how he elaborates on the question of origination. In the analysis of theology of incarnation we can see an expression of the relation between incarnation and the cross, Christ centrism, reflection of the hypostatic union. The examination of the mystery of the life of Jesus explains the conception of the pre-paschal Jesus. The analysis...

J.K.Toole, Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. and Ken Kesey: Authority and Grotesque in the U.S. Literature of The 1960s.
Kocmichová, Linda ; Ulmanová, Hana (advisor) ; Sukdolová, Alice (referee) ; Olehla, Richard (referee)
The dissertation focuses on the impact of authority and grotesque in the U.S. literature of the 1960s. The key theoretical approaches used for the analysis were: Bakhtinian theory concerning popular carnival culture and Vizenor's theory concerning tricksters, Deleuzian notion of repetition and schizoanalysis and the theory of Foucault concerning power and anti- authority struggles. The main task of the analysis was to trace the common and differentiating features which were demonstrated in the novels in the form of anti-authority struggles and forms of madness, which is viewed as a deliberating force. The authors were chosen for their challenging attitudes toward the forms of power exercised over the American society and for the usage of the grotesque as a tool to convey a subversive message. The analysed authors were John Kennedy Toole and his A Confederacy of Dunces, Kurt Vonnegut Jr. and his Slaughterhouse 5 and Ken Kesey's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.

The Tragic in Selected Works of Norwegian Literature of Recent Decades
Mittnerová, Lucie ; Humpál, Martin (advisor) ; Hartlová, Dagmar (referee)
The goal of this thesis is to analyze five selected novels of the Norwegian modern literature in terms of the theory of tragedy. The thesis focuses on four basic aspects of the topic. First, we are trying to capture and describe the concept of tragic in general. This is done with help of theories of the tragic that: 1) are generally considered significant in the area of tragedy 2) are interesting in connection with the interpretation of the novels chosen for this thesis. Secondly, we are trying to describe main topics that could help us to identify and investigate the tragic in the above mentioned works. After this, the thesis brings a closer analysis of the novels with regard to the previously described theories. It also focuses in this connection on some additional characteristics of tragedy, as well as more theories connected to the tragic area. Furthermore, these analyses lead to repeated encounters of various interpretations of classical and modern features of tragedy. The conclusion of the thesis points out the most significant features of the analyzed works that form, according to my opinion, the tragic basis in the novels (in this context, the thesis compares the five chosen novels with each other, thus showing that one of them differs from the rest). As a result, I come to the conclusion...

Symbolism in Ibn Sina's Work: Interpretation of Initiation Stories
Vitásková, Magdaléna ; Kropáček, Luboš (advisor) ; Ostřanský, Bronislav (referee) ; Pirický, Gabriel (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to interpretate the stories The Living, son of the Vigilant, The Bird and Salaman and Absal, written by one of the greatest scholars of medieval Islamic East, Ibn Sina (980-1037). Unlike his philosophical and medical writings these stories have a different character and create a coherent narrative cycle. Based on their themes, narrative methods and symbolism they should be in my opinion called initiation stories. The main aim of this dissertation is thus to verify this hypothesis by means of the hermeneutic interpretation. These stories, read as a coherent cycle, show typical features of initiation genre: the hero can't find his way, his existential condition makes him desperate, he is consumed by strong desire for reaching a higher ontological degree, meets an initiator, goes through initiation rites of passage, crosses the border between the uninitiated and initiated space, reaches the final initiation through symbolic death. The interpretation of each of Ibn Sina's three writings reveals an inner coherence of the stories: The Living, son of the Vigilant focuses on the motive of an initiator-guide and the description of the stages on the initiation way leading upwards, The Bird tells in an emotional way about the state preceding the initiation and then concentrates on...

Auteur Execution of Film Dialogue
Kocábek, Daniel ; KAJÁNKOVÁ, Lucia (advisor) ; VAJCHR, Marek (referee)
This thesis is about auteur execution of film dialogue in screenplays and also in film. By analysing four different feature films, Reservoir Dogs, Chasing Amy, Before Sunset, and Rushmore this work shows how their authors shoot conversational scenes in an innovative manner. The American Independent cinema is briefly introduced as well as the auteur theory. The choice of filmmakers and specific films is explained. The thesis subsequently demonstrates how film dialogue is being viewed by film handbooks and how a conventional dialogue scene looks like. The four analyses are based on all of this information.
