Černá, Lucie ; Kladný, Tomáš (advisor) ; Putna, Martin (referee)
1 Abstract In my diploma thesis I deal with the concept of the Jára Cimrman Theater. Using description and explanation, I examine the influence of mystification, fictional worlds, intertextuality, and special effects of the theater comicality up on its success and unwavering popularity among the audience. For this purpose, I work with audiovisual recordings and the book release of all theater plays by the Jára Cimrman Theater. In terms of theoretical research, I use bibliographic resources, among which are texts, articles, studies and publications by Lubomír Doležel, Umberto Eco and other authors whose works are relevant to the topic of my diploma thesis. In the diploma thesis I present an interpretation of theoretical knowledge, opinions, comments and reflections related to the chosen topic. The topic is a subject of broad professional discourse and is theoretically so complex that this diploma thesis cannot contain all the issues and contexts that apply to it. In this regard, I have tried to outline at least some of them and on their basis to elaborate the theme of this diploma thesis.

(Im)possibility of Activities of the Divadlo Járy Cimrmana in Conditions of Totalitarian Regime
PECHAČOVÁ, Markéta
This thesis focuses on the Jara Cimrman´s Theatre and his "strugle for existence" in the years of 1967-1989. The main focus is to find out to which extent this apolitical theatre was allowed to perform freely in a communist regime and to which extent it was influenced by the censorship or totalitarian deterrence methods. This thesis is devided into four chapters. The first of them outlines the period of time with the focus on political, social and theatre history. The second chapter introduces a brief explanation of the Jara Cimrman´s Theatre history. The main focus of the other two chapters is to describe particular demonstration of the state restrictions imposed on this theatre. Thesis is partially based on the method of oral history. The author of it draws the information from the books, magazines, newspapers and audio-visual resources, in which the interviews with the main theatre actors were published. The closing part of the thesis analyses the record with the code name "Shower" which was kept by the former state police about Zdeněk Svěrák, co-author of the plays. The analysis of this file unables us to take a look at the former police methods and procedures which led to the ban of the play Lijavec.
