Two sexteenth-century French Translations of the Cento Probae
 Stříbrná, Adéla ; Bažil, Martin (advisor) ; Šuman, Záviš (referee)
Cento Probae is one the important works of late Roman literature, which had a great success both in the Middle Ages and in the humanism. This is evidenced by the large number of manuscripts and printed witnesses, to which it is possible to add two French translations from the middle of the 16th century. The main focus of this master's thesis is to propose a detailed comparison of the texts with regard to contemporary translation practice. Based on this analysis, the author examines the purpose of these translations, the audience for which they were intended and whether there is any connection between them.

Elements of Irony in the Bucolic Works of Calpurnius Siculus
 Stříbrná, Adéla ; Bažil, Martin (advisor) ; Kuťáková, Eva (referee)
This bachelor's thesis focuses on the Latin bucolic poet Calpurnius Siculus and his collection of eclogues. Firstly, it summarizes the complex and hotly disputed topic of the dating of the author and his oeuvre. The thesis then offers a brief résumé of the primary arguments favouring the two main time frames: the Neronian times (1st century AD) and the 3rd century AD - the rule of Emperor Severus Alexander. The subsequent chapter details the formation and evolution of the bucolic genre and the lives of its two main representatives in Antiquity: Theocritus and Virgil, both of whom Calpurnius drew upon in his work. The following chapter contains a theoretic analysis of the term irony and of the means and ways it is expressed in a text. The thesis centres on an interpretation of select extracts from Calpurnius's work, focusing on irony and the methods of irony used by him.
