Milena Jesenská and her work for Lidové noviny and Přítomnost
Němečková, Sára ; Čeňková, Jana (advisor) ; Knapík, Jiří (referee)
The thesis deals with the journalistic works of Milena Jesenská not only in Lidové noviny but also in the magazine Přítomnost in 1929 - 1930, resp. in 1937 - 1939. In her works we can find a number of repetitive topics. Most of them have in large part roots in her life. Her literaty output is permanently penetrated by her permanent need to help her surroundings and to protect her weaker residents, which is according to author's biographers for Milena Jesenská sheer crucial. The author stood in the years 1929 - 1930 as the head of women's section of Lidové noviny and was trying very hardly to fight for the change of the form of this section in the print at that time. Another significant topic was the issue of a modern woman and her role in the society at that time. The thesis deals also with the resonance of social relations and historic events in the examined texts. Politically tuned reflections or reports and reportage by Milena Jesenská in the magazine Přítomnost bring an authentic perspective to the atmosphere in the Czechoslovak society at that time.

"he was very happy to hold Frieda in his hands, far too fearfully happy". Reflexes of a writer's personal fear of commitment in Franz Kafka's novel fragments
Flanderová, Tereza ; Blahak, Boris (advisor) ; Weinberg, Manfred (referee)
This thesis examines Franz Kafka's autobiographic reflections in his three novel fragments, with more attention being paid to those reflections which are connected to two of the three most important women in Kafka's life. In the first part we summarize autobiographic background in the form in which it is presented in Kafka's correspondence and diaries. This background together with the specific social circumstances of Kafka's life are used in the following analysis of the three works. We find that the autobiographic aspect is present in all of the three works and apart from that there is clearly a rising tendency in the volume of the autobiographic content in the works observable with passing time.
