The fantastic tale in Czech literature at the end of the 19th century and Karel Švanda ze Semčic
WAGNEROVÁ, Hana
This bachelor thesis deals with the term fantastic tale and its modifications in Czech and foreign literary production from the end of the 19th century. The starting point is the work of writer Karel Švanda from Semčice (Fantastic Tales, 1892; Bizarre Tales, 1897) who was not only a creator of fantastic tales but also a translator. Specifically, he translated the work of E. T. A. Hoffmann into Czech language, whose tales are essential for the genre of fantastic literature. Besides Švanda's work, this thesis focuses also on its contemporary reception.
