In addition to narrative analysis subject of the work was also the analysis of the fictional world where the story takes place. Another point of diploma thesis is to analyze transmedia narrative that makes the original Star Wars story transform into a books, computer games and more. The whole concept of Star Wars can be described as a modern narrative, moreover, whose stories are from the genre of science-fiction and take place in a completely fictional environment.

Typology of space in narrative texts
ŠLAPÁKOVÁ, Michaela
This thesis is thematically focused on narrative space cathegory, covering it immediately from several possible angles of literary science interest. At first, the thesis shortly focuses on description of possible perspectives, by whose optics it is possible to approach this cathegory, and afterwards it plunges into the piece morphology and searches various ways of space imaging in the literary text. This problematic is covered in the second chapter, whose individual sub-chapters devote to comparison of imaging of related narrative space and time cathegories, description as one of the basic space performance techniques in the language arts and various methods of its presentation. Not least, they offer a global model of fictional narrative world structure, originating from the standpoint of the literal theorist Gabriel Zoran. In the third chapter, we free ourselves from internal relations, based on which the space in narrative texts is arranged, and we follow up options, this cathegory can offer to us, provided, we approach it as a thematically key (and thus, interpretively relevant as well) narrative element. Here, we define the term of theme, archetype and topoi and furthermore, we regard the corresponding cathegory from the points of view of space poetics (or place poetics). Thus, we devote to several representatives of fictional world and their forms and roles, they could take within the frame of the final text interpretation. We apply the achieved findings to specific pieces of the Czech literature throughout the entire thesis, whereby we acquire a more visual idea of otherwise abstract theoretical considerations and theses.
