Escapes to Documentary - Escapes to Fiction. Film Directors-"Amphibians" and Questions of the Representation of Reality
FILIPOV, Jakub
The diploma thesis deals with the characterization of two basic film categories which collectively identify individual genres, fictional and non-fictional film. At the same time, it finds the arguments necessary for the theoretical anchoring of documentary film as a separate genre and comes up with its general definion. It also touches on issues of film style and, in part, issues related to the different types of reception of stylistic means attributed to specific modes of film depiction. The main aim of this work is to process the question of representation of reality and approach the way the directors of the so-called "amphibians" - Agn?s Varda and Werner Herzog - moving in the field of documentary and fiction, work with depiction of the actual world and how does it project itself into the fictional world. The interpretation of selected film works makes it possible to point out the specific role of authorship and thus thematize the atypical approach in which both directors are working with the film medium. Based on the interpreted films by director Agn?s Varda and director Werner Herzog, the work analyze the thematic similarities and stylistic elements characteristic of fiction and documentary works and their different uses across film genres. At the same time, the way in which the traditional boundary dividing films into fictional and non-fictional ones is systematically demolished, the fixed boundary which is almost impossible to define in practice, is like the film style that cannot be strictly divided into fictional and documentary because it is part of one cinematographic-historical unity.
Role of indeterminance in literary work
Marković, Maša ; Zuska, Vlastimil (advisor) ; Kubalík, Štěpán (referee)
In this paper I focused mainly on "indeterminacy" as a term which functions in literary theory. This paper was based on analysis of phenomenological approach of Roman Ingarden, on theory of Reception Aesthetics of Wolfgang Iser and on the theory of Fictional Worlds by Lubomir Doležela. I have analyzed the indeterminacy in relation to the literary work and what function does it have when fictional worlds are constructed. It was ascertained that its function has changed in time. This paper's focus was on aesthetic reception in relation to the gaps and blanks which originate from literary work. One part of this thesis was dedicated to construction of fictional and possible worlds and their relation to the indeterminacy. Indeterminacy in this paper was presented as indispensible part of the aesthetic reception.
