Zkáza lidství - synthesis of dystopia, apokalypse and mysticism
Křižková, Aneta ; Vaněk, Václav (advisor) ; Machek, Jakub (referee)
Bachelor thesis focuses on detailed description and thorough analysis of an unusual science fiction novel Zkaza lidstvi by a czech unknown author Josef Akana. The novel (written in 1928) seems to be rather problematic to classify, since it borderlines across various genres such as science fiction, utopia and apocalypse which are represented in the opening chapters. This bachelor thesis analyses the tendency of czech interwar literature, summarizes real war threat common themes and reflects general concerns about social development which also happened to be extremely emphasized in the literature of twenties. Key words Josef Akana, Zkaza lidstvi, science fiction, utopia, dystopia, apocalypse, interwar literature
