Author and the World of text
Šteffl, Jan ; Lukeš, Jiří (advisor) ; Hogenová, Anna (referee)
In my thesis I focus on common resources of the concept of author in the context of philosophy and literary criticism, mostly in twentieth century. Moreover I look for specifics in particular fields and authors which are specific for them. The first chapter is an introduction to the issue and represents Fichte's concept of author. Next chapter introduces principles of hermeneutics and shows us the function of hermeneutic circle on the background of the text reading theory and understanding. In the third chapter are shown Roman Jakobson and Jan Mukařovský as representatives of structuralism. The first mentioned shows us a diagram of the speaker and the recipient, the second mentioned shows us on a principles of a poet. In the next chapter I introduce post- structuralism and deal with the development of terms like archive and discourse as well as the changing of the role of an author. The last chapter is focused on orality and narrative in the context of an author as a narrator. The world of fiction is also reflected.

Empedocles' cosmology
Šteffl, Jan ; Milko, Pavel (advisor) ; Hogenová, Anna (referee)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to demonstrate how were the presocratic philosophers thinking about the creation of the world. The first part is focused on a brief description of the life of Empedocles, as well as it defines main conceptions of the idea of cosmology. The main part of the thesis is trying to analyse four elements, which we can hold as substances. Besides for their paramount role in Empedocles' cosmology, they are also mentioned since Empedocles is often understood as their founder. The following chapter explains the problem of Love and Strife which both cooperate with the four elements and they all participate on creation and destruction. This chapter is introducing us to the problems of cosmic cycles and Sfairos, which are often considered to be the major phenomenon of Empedocles' cosmology and philosophy. These ideas are also described here because of the possible comparison of various religious trends and religious thinking.
