The elements of horror in the stories of Ray Bradbury
HLADKÝ, Martin

The theoretical part describes the main features of the Gothic novel and the links between this literary tradition and the genre of science fiction (e.g. the role of the novel Frankenstein). The practical part deals with the particular themes of Bradbury's stories: (the loss of identity, alienation, the role of memory, the fear of death, the presence of mystery). The thesis also deals with the way Bradbury evokes suspense and the atmosphere of horror.
