Štollová, Jitka ; Halada, Jan (advisor) ; Čeňková, Jana (referee)
This bachelor thesis explores the development of non-fiction literature in the Czech and Czechoslovakian book markets by means of the analysis of publications focused on the character of Russian mystic Grigory Efimovich Rasputin. The main attention is paid to the question in which manner the heretofore released titles show the versatility of the genre of non-fiction literature. The thesis at first examines the history of non-fiction literature in the world and in Czechoslovakia and the Czech Republic and it outlines Rasputin's biography afterwards. The main, analytical part comprises the analyses of eight titles about Rasputin which are examined from the perspective of their authorial style, approaches to facts and the use of literary strategies as means of persuading readers. The thesis aims to trace common features and tendencies of these titles and show on the selected topic the transformation of the genre of non-fiction literature within almost a hundred years.
