The influence of the antiquity on the oldest French poetry
Pometlo, Ondřej ; Pohorský, Aleš (advisor) ; Kyloušek, Petr (referee) ; Kuťáková, Eva (referee)
The dissertation focuses on comparison of medieval writings presenting the actions of Julius Caesar to French readers, specifically Li Fet des Romans, Roman de Jules César and Li Hystore de Iulius Caesar. Interpretation of accessible texts is based on analysis of the translation process: comparison of the antique original and its medieval variants in French language as presented in medieval manuscripts. The author opens the dissertation with introduction to factors influencing the medieval translator; among others the ability of complex understanding of the original text, education and awareness of other literary works, oral component of culture; and the way of thinking and of interpretation of the world.
Orality as a source of the inspiration for the francophone African and Caribbean litteratures
Komers, Petr ; Pohorský, Aleš (advisor) ; Kyloušek, Petr (referee) ; Zima, Petr (referee)
Tato práce se snaží poukázat na to, jak orální kultura (a oralita jako dosud převažující či vlivný komunikační systém v tradičnějších společnostech) může inspirovat psanou literaturu, jak ji mohou obohatit formálně i obsahově, a přitom podnítit autorskou fantasii. K demonstraci tohoto fenoménu je využito téměř výhradně francouzsky psané prózy dvou frankofonních oblastí: karibských ostrovů a černé, zejména Západní Afriky. Některá výjimečná díla z těchto regionů, napsaná ve francouzštině, prozrazují silný vliv této inspirace, a vynikají právě tím, jak jej jejich autoři dokázali přetvořit do unikátních literárních textů. Takových autorů je v obou zmíněných oblastech celá řada (B. Dadié, M. M. Diabaté, B. Diop, E. Glissant, R. Confiant…), a každý čerpá z orality své země svým osobitým způsobem. Tento inspirační zdroj je otevřený a potenciálně velmi bohatý. I když tato disertace obsahuje četné citace z knih zmíněných i dalších spisovatelů, nejlépe by tuto skutečnost měly dokázat zevrubnější analysy dvou slavných románů, jimiž se tato práce uzavírá a svým způsobem jimi vrcholí. Jde o román Les Soleils des indépendences (Slunce nezávislostí) od Ahmadoua Kouroumy z Pobřeží slonoviny a o román Solibo magnifique (Solibo ohromný) od Patricka Chamoiseaua z Martiniku. Protože tato studie se zabývá literaturami, jež...
The development of the picture of the heroine in French novels of the XIIth and XIIIth centuries
Plotzová, Kateřina ; Pohorský, Aleš (advisor) ; Jamek, Václav (referee) ; Kyloušek, Petr (referee)
The main theme of medieval novels such as Tristan, Cligs, Yvain, Lancelot, Jaufre and Flamenca is called fine amor, a pure love that represents the ideal of the love relation between the lady and her knight, both of aristocratic origins. Heroines such as Iseut, Fénice, Laudine, Guenivre, Brunissen and Flamenca represent women for whom love is the fundamental value even if each one of them have their own way to live it. The Lady s character is not only influenced by the Celtic mythology, but also by the following of the Virgin Mary which developed during the 12th Century alongside the Courtly love. Neverthless, there is no need to identify fine amor with the mystic love, because it represents, as well as Lady, the ideal of the Knighthood and not one of the Clergy. Iseut is torn between her husband and her lover, between her social obligations as a queen and the demands of her heart. She lives in conflict with society and with her own conscience. Her fault is diminished by the fact that her love for Tristan is ignited by a magic beverage they drink together on the sea (without knowing it is a magic drink), although this doesn't make her entirely innocent. Much like Eve, Iseut is a sinner that symbolizes the 12th century woman. Her character is further enhanced by the presence of Brangien, her maid, and...
