Kastnerová, Erika ; Ulbrechtová, Helena (advisor) ; Chlaňová, Tereza (referee)
The desintegration of the USSR, the resulting release of censorship, and the related publication of earlier prohibited texts, as well as the new charakter of the book market entirely tranformed the shape of the literary field of the nineties. This thesis concerns itself with a specific segment of the professional literary production of this period. With its topic, this work aspires to contribute to the serious research of the little explored postcommunist period in the Russian literature. In order to assess and interpret the evolution of opininions in this period of time, the chosen method is the one of commented overview of literary criticism and of literary-theoretical texts published mainly between 1986 and 2000 in Russian publications (mostly in so-called "thick magazines"). The thesis focuses on studies interested in the work of the middle and younger generation of the Russian prose writers, and more precisely on studies concerning the structural aspects of the literary situation in the nineties. On the background of the specific cultural and social situation, the method of the ample commentary is an appropriate way regarding how to interpret the literary theorists' basis of thoughts and opinions, and at the same time how to affect these experts' relationship to the new tendencies in the...

Skálová, Jana ; Nykl, Hanuš (referee) ; Ulbrechtová, Helena (advisor)
My intention to devote oneself to write about prosaic writing by Ljudmila Ulickaja arose, when I wrote her fiction Meoea u ee oemu. Although following books are much worse, I am convinced, that Ljudmila Ulickaj a has got a original voice in the russian literature these days, and it costs to speak about her. In my Bachelor-essay I first show analytic survey of history Soviet Union fro111 the year 1953. And I speak there about the main movements in the russian literature these years. Than I show selecting critical views from russian joumals and papers, which analyse various aspects prosaic writing by Ljudmila Ulickaja. I divided these views into three groups based on motives, which they choose - universal Vlew, sociological-psychological approach and religious component. Than I attempted to aplicate these views on my own critical analyse. I took three of short stories by Ljudmila Ulickaja and showed my remarks. 54

Venedikt Jerofejev. "Moscow to the end of the line" or the wanderings of the holy fool with a postmodern subtext
Klevcova Pilařová, Julie ; Chlaňová, Tereza (referee) ; Ulbrechtová, Helena (advisor)
Moscow to the end of the Line by Venedikt Jerofejev is frequently mentioned among those literary works that are enumerated while pointing at issue of Russian postmodern literature formation. This novel has become the main topic of a whole number of literary papers that are being analyzed in the first, introductory, chapter of this thesis. Special attention is paid to those works that are dealing with the motifs of the Holy Fool and wandering in the novel. Part one also analyzes various peculiarities of Venedikt Jerofejev's biography and diary, which influenced the novel-writing. Although the novel, which is being analyzed by us, still carries some features of a traditional realistic discourse, it can be discussed from a postmodern point of view due to such features as its hypertextuality, «the death of the author», the usage of «the author's mask», a real language replacement by the «overlanguage» of simulating order, changes that take place in subject-object relationship etc, which are typical for the period when the novel appeared. Those aspects that are characteristic for primary understanding of postmodernism and for its «Eastern» modification are being discussed in the second part. In addition to this, this part analyzes the above mentioned postmodern features of Moscow to the End of the Line. It is...

Pavlik Morozov and his role in the communist education of soviet youth
Slámová, Petra ; Ulbrechtová, Helena (referee) ; Rubáš, Stanislav (advisor)
Tématem mé bakalářské práce je ,,Pavlík Morozov a jeho role v komunistické výchově sovětské mládeže". Jejím cílem je analýza mýtu postavy Pavlíka Morozova, která v sovětském období sloužila jako vzor pro výchovu "nového sovětského člověka", v konfrontaci se skutečností. V druhé kapitole, nazvané Pavlík jako vzor sovětských dětí, se budu věnovat významu a vnímání Pavlíka Morozova, který udal svého vlastního otce. Tímto činem dokázal, že si cení více zájmů státu\ než své vlastní rodiny. Díky svému hrdinskému činu se stal vzorem několika generací sovětských dětí. Třetí kapitola objasňuje důvody a popisuje způsoby tvorby mýtu o Pavlíkovi. Sovětská vláda ponechala pouze kostru jeho skutečného životního příběhu, zbytek si dotvořila podle svých potřeb. Je zde uvedeno několik příkladů prostředků, jimiž se snažila socialistická propaganda dostat do podvědomí dětí ( vzor chování, který měly následovat. Ve čtvrté kapitole jsou uvedeny tři odlišné verze Pavlíkova příběhu. Verze spisovatele Jurije Družnikova podrobně rozebírá jednotlivá fakta uváděná v oficiální verzi a na základě důkazů dokládá jejich smyšlenost či popírá jejich pravdivost. Pátá kapitola se zabývá fenoménem udavačství, kterého se stal Pavlík Morozov symbolem. Udávání se stalo každodenním jevem, při kterém docházelo až k absurdním situacím. ~...
