The aim of this Master's thesis is to present the renowned Spanish author Francisco Ayala as a translator and translation theorist. The core of the thesis is then the analysis of Ayala's main writings concerning translation.

Tomášková, Anna ; Vydrová, Hedvika (advisor) ; Charvátová, Anežka (referee)
(in English): The objective of this diploma thesis is to show the way of Mario Vargas Llosa's literary vision and his interpretation of Lima in the novel The Time of the Hero. My aim is also to express the particularity and distinctiveness of the imagery of Lima in the novel. In the beginning, I mention the most important facts of history of the city, specifically the 50's and the 60's of the 20th century, which are the decades of the novel's formation and publication. This part is based on the book of essays Lima la horrible of Sebastián Salazar Bondy in which the author describes the world of the Lima's population in this period. I also introduce briefly evolution of the image of the city in the Peruvian literature. This part is based, besides others, on the essay "Lima, ciudad sin novella" of Julio Ramón Ribeyro. In the main part of my thesis I mention the storyline of the novel. After that, I focus my attention on the structure of the novel The Time of the Hero, which is characterized by alternation of narrative spaces and tenses. This aspect helps to make the story uncertain. I also describe the formal side of the novel, primarily the arrangement of the main chapters and their smaller parts which are symmetricaly ordered according to the concerned topic, place or time. I present the main two...

Fine arts are presented in the novel by six paintings, which are connected with imaginations of the novel heroes. The series of the chapters describing the paintings creates so-called pictorial line.

La bodega by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez in two Czech translations
Zajícová, Vlasta ; Uličný, Miloslav (advisor) ; Charvátová, Anežka (referee)
The name of the Spanish prose-writer Vicente Blasco Ibáez was well known in the Czechoslovakia of the 1920s. Between 1919 and 1931 twenty of his works were published in the country, out of which sixteen were translated by Karel Vít-Veith. At that time Ibáez was a popular author in other European countries as well as in the United States where his works achieved a great success. He lived and wrote in the same period as the Spanish "Generation of 1898". Nevertheless, both his thought and his literary method differed a lot from the Generation. His late work did not reach the quality of his early prose and is considered to be effete. Our thesis focuses on the Ibáez's novel called La bodega and its two translations into Czech. La bodega was first published in 1905 and belongs to the cycle of social novels written by Ibáez between 1903 and 1905. At that time the writer's critical stances towards Spanish society, monarchy and the church were most apparent in his works. The novel was translated into Czech twice; first time by Karel Vít-Veith in 1927, second time by Václav Cibula in 1956. Our thesis starts with a chapter concerning writer's life, his work and political career which is of crucial importance for reasoning the author's popularity in the Czechoslovakia between the two world wars. The following chapter...

Juan Carlos Onetti: short stories from 1933-1950
Zrůstová, Monika ; Vydrová, Hedvika (advisor) ; Charvátová, Anežka (referee)
V centru pozornosti Juana Car10se Onettiho jsou v jeho prvním tvůrčím období lidé, muži nebo ženy, kteří si snaží uchránit zbytek vlastní identity před okolním světem, popřípadě Sl ve své fantazii vymýšlejí identitu novou, aby pak byli schopni nalézt integritu a dosáhnout pocitu štěstí. Je jen otázkou čtenářovy ochoty ponořit se do skrytého smyslu bloumání těchto postav, jejich zdánlivé nečinnosti, snění a prvoplánové odevzdanosti. Skutečné příběhy se totiž u Onettiho odehrá vaj í jako by za povídkami samotnými, čtenář je musí vytušit, zrekonstruovat, domyslet si je a vtisknout jim smysl na základě své osobní pravdy. V tom spočívá výjimečnost a originalita Juana Carlose Onettiho a jeho povídek, patrná již v námi vymezeném období. Děj je v prvních povídkách redukován, Onetti Jen velice pomalu sděluje svá svědectví. Oproti pozdějším románům jsou povídky méně kruté a temné, dokonce v nich můžeme rozpoznat záblesky naděj e a důvěry, které hrdinové románů nemohou poskytovat ani přijímat. Onetti využívá techniku, která je výsostná pro básníky. Mario Benedetti výstižně poznamenává, že básník může považovat za samozřej mé příběhy, které zná jen on nebo jeho stín (v mnoh ých případech jen jeho stín), a na tyto příběhy pak mezi řádky odkazovat. Onetti tuto techniku přejímá, a nikdy nesklouzává do tendence vysvětlovat...
