Child ́s Reader and Child ́s Poet from Contemporary Award-WinningPoetry Collections Point of View
Perglerová, Jitka ; Laufková, Veronika (advisor) ; Mocná, Dagmar (referee)
The presented diploma thesis maps the situation of contemporary child's reading. It deals with the factors which form the child reader externally (especially family, school and libraries, or the projects supporting child's reading). The main part of the thesis presents an analysis of the contemporary poetry for children. It examines how the books can influence the readers and motivate them for further reading. For the text analysis, the books of poetry which were awarded in competitions of Zlatá stuha or Magnesia Litera in 2013-2017 were selected as representative samples, namely Poetický slovníček dětem v příkladech, Všelijaké řečičky pro kluky a holčičky and Moře slané vody by Radek Malý, Tetovaná teta by Daniela Fischerová, Vynálezárium by Robin Král and Hlava v hlavě by David Böhm and Ondřej Buddeus. When analyzing the illustrations, attention was paid to the selected books that won the art category of Zlatá stuha and the competition Nejkrásnější česká kniha roku (The Most Beautiful Czech Book of the Year) and to the books representing the model production of the publishing houses of Běžíliška, Meander and series Raketa in publishing house Labyrint. An aspect of illustration was analyzed in the concertina books Rekomando and Ferdinande! by Robin Král and concertina book O čem sní by Petr...

The Language of Images (The Image of an Author as a Paratextual Phenomenon in Cultural Transfer)
Králíková, Andrea ; Bílek, Petr (advisor) ; Špirit, Michael (referee) ; Kubíček, Tomáš (referee)
This PhD. Thesis "The Language of Images (The Image of an Author as a Paratextual Phenomenon in Cultural Transfer)" deals with the teoretical questions of the notion "The Image of an Author" and the way the term is constituted and its conections to a specific cultural space in the frame of cultural transfer. The Image of the Author is interpreted as a paratextual phenomenon which is on the one hand created through review acceptance and medial discurs in the cultural space, and on the other hand has influence on the way the text is accepted by the reader. The question of the image of an author is approached in the context of other paratextual elements, paratexts are from our point of view read as cultural (semantic) units, which participace on semiotic space of culture. The first three chapters form the teoretical basis of the thesis and focus on the theme of cultural transfer and paratexts. The core of the thesis is in its second part which presents four case studies about four different author's types in contemporary Czech literature (Jáchym Topol, Petra Hůlová, Jaroslav Rudiš, Miloš Urban). Each case study analyses the main points of their reception, the speech of the medial discourse and the way of their presentation and self-presentation. A comparison with distinc attributes of reception in...

The narrative study: Absalom's cycle
Veselá, Jana ; Beneš, Jiří (advisor) ; Holubová, Markéta (referee)
6 The result of my thesis is the finding that narrative analysis is an approach that allows understanding biblical text in a bigger scope. The better comprehension is particularly given by understanding of the deep narrative structures. This works also for the exegesis where the narrative-analytical frame serves as a sieve that separates statements burdened by theology. However these statements can be seen as the door through which we can enter the story and determine its fundamental message. On the other hand, narrative approach cannot be considered as an all-embracing approach for understanding the Old Testament text, because it does not help us neither to discover what exactly led the author to create the Absalom's cycle, nor to define what demands he places on the readers.

Unreliability in Narration
HAVLOVÁ, Zuzana
The bachelor thesis is primarily focused on the aspects of unreliable narration in literature and deals with its characterization and assessment. It presents several theoretical expositions of unreliability accompanied by the analysis of the chosen literary illustrations demonstrating the discussed issues on the concerete samples. The indidvidual insights display that unreliability in naration is marked with disunity of opinion and a number of different attitudes. These facts result in substantially diverse interpretations of the particular literary works when apllying different criteria connected with distinct scholarly approaches. Simultaneously, the discrepancy of estimations and the thesis in general reflect dynamics, attractiveness and variety of this narratological category.
