Josef Karásek (1868-1916) in the context of Czech Slavic Studies and the Czech literary scene in Vienna (On the participation of Vienna in inter-Slavic cultural relations from the founding of the Jagić Seminary to the birth of Czechoslovakia)
Černý, Marcel ; Petrbok, Václav (referee)
This dissertation is divided into two parts. The first part (2. VIENNA AND CZECH LITERATURE) is devoted to the interaction between the city of Vienna and modern Czech culture, primarily literature. The second part (3. VIENNA AND CZECH SLAVIC STUDIES) is oriented toward the problematic of the history of Slavic Studies, the area of Slavic philology which, as a meta-discipline, deals with the self-reflection of its own subject. Specifically, both the initiative of the "Jagić concept" of Slavic philology for Czech Slavic Studies as it was eventually reflected in Karásek's specialized activities and the panoramic outline of the way in which Jagić's work was perceived and absorbed in the Czech surroundings are the subject of consideration. However, this study is not a "classic" monograph in the narrow sense of the word. Josef Karásek, who was a literary historian, editor, translator, and promoter of Slavic literatures in the German-speaking world, was not a central personality in the history of Czech Slavic Studies. Yet on the other hand, considering the rather strong echo of his work in Czech, Viennese and other Slavic research communities, and in spite of the partial research eclecticism of his work, it cannot be said that Karásek was a mere journalist and author of compilations. His extensive estate, which was...

Convergence and divergence of the Macedonian revival in the context of the South-Slavonic reality
Kouba, Miroslav ; Kvapil, Miroslav (advisor) ; Rychlík, Jan (referee) ; Černý, Marcel (referee)
The aims of the submitted thesis can be divided in two major topics. Firstly, the subject of the work is to analyse the functional factors of the revival process as they were developing in the Macedonian and Bulgarian environment. On the other hand, the work is trying to ans\ver the question of how those factors participated in the creation of the two national narratives - the Bulgarian and Macedonian ones. The essential problem is thus the formation process of the Macedonian national and cultural identity. For the analysis itself, the following socio-cultural categories appear to be the key factors: 1) toponyms / ethnonyms, their symbolical meanings and modes of revival identifications, 2) the language question and the problem of forming n10dern literary languages, 3) religiosity and the ecclesiastic question, 4) the role of folk literature in the nation-forming process and 5) the development of author's (original) literature. The SUlTI of these categories creates the the "national history", the wording of which is complicated by numerous different factors in the Macedonian - Bulgarian context. The Macedonian identity is finally created in the 1940's. That is why Macedonian historiography faces basic problems in the interpetation of the "Macedonian 19th century". The submitted work is based on the...

Černý, Marcel
The study puts emphasis on the Czech-Bulgarian cross cultural works of a mathematician, journalist and translator Vladislav Šak (1860-1941). The study aspires to merge knowledge regarding Šak’s bulgarian studies contribution (he has translated Ch. Botev, I. Vazov, K. Christov, E. Bagrjana, K. Veličkov and others; among others he has written set of sonnets "Pod Vitoší", 1905; "Bulharsko-český slovník", 1910-1913; "Kniha bulharsko-české konversace", 1913; "Česko-bulharský slovník", 1926) on the basis of available literature as well as so far unexplored sources (e.g. Šak’s autobiography that has been published within this study, or the only broader correspondence collection, Šak’s letters addressed to Adolf Černy, the main editor of "Slovanský přehled", into which Šak used to regularly contribute partly under the pen-name Martin Prentov). Both Šak’s personal and professional relationships with K. Veličkov have been described for the first time.

The Czech Vienna as a part of the specific interliterary community?
Černý, Marcel
The article deals with the problematic of the literary production of Czech Viennese literati as a specific literary phenomenon. The author attempts, on the basis of the theoretical standpoints of the international project led by D. Ďurišin (Specific Interliterary Communities I-VI, Bratislava 1987-1993), to define the literary specifics of the works published in Vienna as well as, for the need of the article, about Vienna by local authors in Czech.
