The Marsh Girl Myth, A Human Individual as a Part of the Natural World in the work of Delia Owens
PETRÁSKOVÁ, Lucie
The bachelor thesis is to explore and analyze the theoretical level of the coming-of-age story, the connection between nature, landscape, and person, who stands on the margins of society and is not included in the social structure. Based on theoretical sources, the work will try to analyze the myth of the found child and his ability to adapt to natural conditions during adolescence in contrast to the problem of subsequent inclusion of the individual in local communities, education, and employment in adulthood. Literary analysis of the romance genre will focus on the emotional relationships of an individual who grows up in social isolation and, at the same time, is closely connected with nature and the landscape. The work further characterizes the space and natural conditions in the locality, in which the novel Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens is situated and analyzes the behavior of the main characters against the background of the criminal investigation, which the "marsh girl" is a subject to.
