Vasko, Vojtěch ; Lehečková, Eva (advisor) ; Chromý, Jan (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the system of distribution of prepositions na, v and do in toponyms, which is an issue that has not been systematically described in any scientific work yet. At the beginning of the work hypotheses, which I have determined on the basis of literature, are stated; then a description of a fieldwork, by which I was trying to verify those hypotheses, follows. A result of the work then consists in a comparison of the obtained data with hypotheses and in a description of the determined system of distribution of investigated prepositions in toponyms.
Association Function of Proper Names in Literature
Dvořáková, Žaneta
According to our definition the association function refers to real persons/places or persons/places known from literature or cultural tradition. Names with the association function do not have to be identical with referential names, they can be only similar to them. The guiding principle of the association function is understanding of allusion, finding the relation between literary character (and her/his name) and the person who had been the pre-image of the character. There are four basic naming situations: 1) the real person (or place) has her/his true name in literature; 2) a fictive name is given to the real person (or place) found in literature; 3) the fictive character (or place) has a true name of someone else known from the real world; 4) the fictive character is called by a fictive name. All names make an important part of the text structure, they do not exist separate. That is why it is necessary to analyse names in the context of the whole piece of art.
