EX/POSITION
Brinzová, Marianna ; Zálešák, Jan (referee) ; Artamonov, Vasil (advisor)
The diploma work titled Ex/position is a project, exhibition, intervention of space, which determined itself as the topic and object of its research (analysis and interest). The Ex/position is an exhibition about an exhibition, a project about a project and a reflection about a context. The main output of the thesis is a curatorial project created in the concept of collaborative practice. The result of it is a collective work in the form of an exhibition. The thesis as a temporary gallery installation is created on the basis of the curatorial and as well authorial concept in collaboration with other authors. They were ideologically, formally, creationally involved in the collective work. The Ex/position reflects these topics: collaboration, the essence of the particular media and their contemporary intermediality, the relation between author and author, author and curator (and their blending) and the creation process of an exhibition.

"To be a tree where there is no hubbub": Poetics of Solitude in the Works of Ludmila Macešková
Boháčová, Kristýna ; Vojvodík, Josef (advisor) ; Vojtěch, Daniel (referee)
The thesis follows the line of solitude in the poetry of Jan Kameník (which is the pen name of Ludmila Macešková). It notices the impossibility of classifying him into the literary groups active from 40's to 60's. It also observes his dramatic way which was motivated by desire to find the expression for his spiritual experience. First, the thesis focuses on places which illustrate the phases during the way. Then it centres on the poetic language which moves to the boundaries of communicability. Last, it comes to the touch like specific revelation of name where all differences are overcame.

Art as an constitutive element of fictional worlds
Ruml, Lukáš ; Mocná, Dagmar (advisor) ; Kubíček, Tomáš (referee)
The topic of this thesis is visual art as a constitutive element of fictional worlds. The methodological basis is comparative semiotics, or more precisely intermediality research. The aim is to capture some of the possible realisations of intermedial relationships between literature and visual art. The constituent case studies are focused on the ekphrasis represented in the novel Witch Hammer by Václav Kaplický, on the transmediality as a transfer of aesthetics of one medium into another on the example of Josef Čapek's Three Proses which are traditionally perceived as cubist, and on the illustrative relationship between text and picture in František Hrubín's lyrical poems The Night of Job. The first study concerning the ekphrastic relationship confirms the ability of visual art to enrich the possibilities of literary expression thematically but also semantically through introspection into the inner lives of the characters which contributed to the overall interpretation of the work. The second study focused on the transmedia transfer in Čapek's proses does not have such an unequivocal conclusion. Given the complexity of each reader's receptive process, it is difficult to attribute the status of a literary pandanus of Cubism to the Three Proses, even with an awareness of its historical context.

The eye of a poet: Antique figures in the work of Jean Cocteau
Wittlichová, Julie ; Jirsa, Tomáš (advisor) ; Hrdlička, Josef (referee)
The thesis is concerned with the instances of the figures of mythology of the antiquity in the works of Jean Cocteau and their application. It focuses on the character of Narcissus, which is examined in connection to Oedipus and Orpheus, while concentrating mainly on the topic of mirroring and the related motives of the eye and sight. This mirroring is then not examined only on the level of an aesthetic object, but also in relation to the recipient and in mutual interferences between various media. The thesis is methodologically based on selected philosophical theses by Maurice Merlau-Ponty and the theoretical concepts of Pierre Brunel, Mieke Bal and Mary Ann Caws. Within the works of Jean Cocteau the thesis is primarily concerned with the analysis of the novels The Holy Terrors (Les Enfants Terribles), Le Livre Blanc and their illustrations, the poem "Tombeau de Narcisse", the play La Machine infernale and the films Blood of a Poet, Orpheus and The Testament of Orpheus.

Nighthawks in The Age of Anxiety. The work of Edward Hopper of the 1940s and a "Baroque Eclogue" by Wystan Hugh Auden from the perspective of an intermediality.
Murár, Tomáš ; Konečný, Lubomír (advisor) ; Rakušanová, Marie (referee)
The main aim of the Master Thesis is the work of the 1940s by the American painter Edward Hopper (1882-1967) in a relationship to the long poem by Wystan Hugh Auden The Age of Anxiety. A Baroque Eclogue (1947). The Thesis in ten chapters researches Hopper's painting Nighthawks (1942), which is considered to be one of the most important works by Hopper from the war years. Unique position of this painting is reconstructed through intermedial projections and linkages towards the Auden's poem. Next to the interpretation of the intermedial relations, in the centre of the Thesis are time-space relations to Hopper's painting semantics due to period thoughs of temporality, atemporality and aperspectivism. An attention is also paid to the relation of the painting and phenomenology of temporal consciousness and continuance in connection with semantics of the space as "heterotopia".

Reflection of Musical Works in European Literary Modernism
Kovaříková, Olga ; Vojvodík, Josef (advisor) ; Hrdlička, Josef (referee)
This paper focuses on intermedial relations between music and literature of European Modernism and early Avant-garde, and monitors the impact of music on literary texts, literature as a whole, and the essentially literary medium - the book. "Musical work", in this case, refers to Richard Wagner's music dramas and theoretical texts that outlined Wagner's artistic-aesthetic concept of Gesamtkunstwerk as a total work of art uniting all the arts. This paper follows the meta-aesthetic line of intimate, synaestheticly oriented intracompositional literary Gesamtkunstwerk in selected literary texts by Charles Baudelaire, Stéphane Mallarmé, Marcel Proust, and in The Blaue Reiter Almanac. It reveals the essence of analogies between music and literature, various manifestations of musicalization, and their significance for literary works and literature as a whole. It additionally emphasizes that the selected texts have also been influenced by already "literarized" music, as well as by esoteric teachings on speculative music, and highlights the gradual disintegration of boundaries between the arts, which led to their abstraction.

The "Phenomenom" of Czech Serialized TV Tale Genre "Večerníček"
Ungerová, Veronika ; Bílek, Petr (advisor) ; Činátlová, Blanka (referee)
The diploma thesis deals with the Czech cultural phenomenon Vecernicek. Three interpretative sections of the thesis show the possibility to place Vecernicek among modern fairytales as well as they prove its continuity to the traditional fairytale output. At the same time, the thesis draws on distictions between traditional and modernized poetics. Choice series are interpreted with respect to intermediality and specific form of Vecernicek as a TV programme designed for pre-school and and primary-school children. .
