REMEŠ, Jakub
The thesis aims to uncover a relationship between less-known books from Norman Mailer and Hunter S. Thompson, who belonged to a group of New Journalism, with the American history of the 1960s and 1970s. In first part of the thesis, both writers are introduced and the historical background is clarified. The second part illustrates the atmosphere of the 1972 presidential election in the USA and the personality of Richard M. Nixon which is based on the perception of Mailer and Thompson and supplemented with the information from books about American history. In the end, the student compares what the chosen works have in common and what differs. The concluding part summarizes how the books reflect the historical events and why it is still worthwhile reading them.
