The theme of love in the poetry of the Generation of '27
Doležalová, Barbora ; Sánchez Fernández, Juan Antonio (advisor) ; Poláková, Dora (referee)
The diploma thesis "The theme of love in the poetry of the Generation of '27" provides an interpretation of the motif of love in the work of three poets of this formation: Vincente Aleixandre, Pedro Salinas, and Luis Cernuda. It focuses on the collections of poems from the period of the "rehumanization" of Spanish poetry where "to rehumanize" is to return to the subject of love. The authors highlight the correlation of love and poetry as a means to overcome solitude of an individual and to relate to another or to the world. The influence of surrealism on the work of Vincente Aleixandre and Luis Cernuda has been outlined. Moreover, a thesis claiming that the "rehumanization" happened only under the influence of the surrealist movement has been refuted, which is illustrated on the lyric love poems of Pedro Salinas. The work attempts to show that even in this period the elements of pure, "dehumanized" poetry were not completely eliminated. In the work of Vicente Aleixandre, love is characterized as a cosmic force, which rules the whole world - it destroys, reforms and interlinks all. An emphasis is given on the corporeal nature of such love and the interconnection between erotism and the artistic process. In the work of Pedro Salinas, the motif of love is interpreted as a story of two people realized...

Pedro Salinas' poetry as a dialogue with the world
Doležalová, Barbora ; Sánchez Fernández, Juan Antonio (advisor) ; Mašínová, Martina (referee)
The focus of the bachelor thesis "Pedro Salinas' poetry as a dialogue with the world" was the interpretation of nine collections written by the author. The starting point of our interpretation was the dialogical character of Salinas' poetry. The aim of our research was to illustrate how the lyrical subject leads the dialogue and to which recipients does he turn. We also showed the importance and function Pedro Salinas attributed to poetic dialogue and poetry itself. The introductory section is devoted to a brief characterization of Pedro Salinas as a person and to the description of the generation of '27, which he was part of. We briefly outlined some of the philosophical theories of José Ortega y Gasset (continuous process of self-creation, perspectivism, dehumanization of art) and showed how these ideas influenced the works of Pedro Salinas. In the main part, we explained why we consider Salinas' poems dialogical and described the nature of this dialogue. Gradually, we examined the dialogue of the lyrical subject with things, with his beloved and with The Contemplated. We illustrated on certain poems that this dialogue serves to reveal the hidden reality of addressees and to enrich the lyrical subject with their perspectives. We tried to demonstrate that Salinas' lyrical subject tries to...
