The Character of Velns in Latvian Folklore
 Vaverová, Naďa ; Štoll, Pavel (advisor) ; Lemeškin, Ilja (referee)
The thesis focuses on Velns as a character of the Latvian folklore not omitting the origin of Velns related to cognate mythological frameworks as well as providing an outline of Velns' active role in the literature. The plots where Velns appears are specified using the Aarne-Thompson's tale type index and, according to the place of its occurrence, the examined character is classified into types. After addition of other attributes, Velns is situated into Balto-Slavic context and the appropriate equivalents of each discussed environment are selected. On the basis of these equivalents, a complete image is created and possible similarities are examined within the Czech environment, where two potencial equivalents are found - the first one being the Czech čert (devil) and the second one, appearing less often, vodník (water goblin).
