Bel Mondo magazine: birth of a new lifestyle magazine and its transformations during the first year of its existence on the Czech media market
Bolková, Lucie ; Vochocová, Lenka (advisor) ; Hájek, Roman (referee)
The diploma thesis maps the operation of the Bel Mondo lifestylu magazine, which was being published on the Czech market from October 2012 to December 2013. The authors' intentions were to bring a new type of magazine to the Czech market, inspired by foreign print publications such as Intelligent Life, which would combine entertainment with intelligence and present its readers with both original texts and licensed translations from foreign magazines. The thesis introduces the Bel Mondo magazine, puts it into the context of Czech magazine market, describes its operation and searches for reasons that led to its early termination. The theoretical bases for the thesis are gained from expert texts focused on print publishing and magazines. The research part of the thesis focuses on the analysis of thematic and advertising coverage, public response and comments by the editorial staff. The researched data helps to understand the incentive for creation of a new magazine and critically evaluate, whether Bel Mondo really was a unique concept capable of surviving in the Czech media market and whether it had a viable economic model. As the magazine operated under the auspices on the weekly magazine Respekt, the thesis also looks at the degree of interconnection between the two magazines.
