Bohumil Hrabal's Too Loud a Solitude in the English Translation
Michalíková, Adéla ; Kalivodová, Eva (advisor) ; Bílek, Petr (referee)
This thesis is deals with Hrabal's novella Too Loud a Solitude in the English translation and its reception. First, it briefly describes Hrabal's life and work in the context of the co called normalization period in Czechoslovakia, focusing on the novella itself and the three variations of the original Czech text. Before the translation analysis, the possible source text for the translation is discussed since the endings of the Czech text and the English translation are considerably different. The source of the difference was determined by consulting the French translation and related commentary. The analysis compares the ending of the original with the endings of the English and the French translation, translation of proper names and three selected sections of the Czech and the English text. Afterwards, the thesis describes the reception of the novella in Czech and English literature and also readers' reviews at the Goodreads website. The analysis and the reception are assessed on the basis of the theory of cultural manipulation. The most important achievements are: identifying the source text for the English translation, description of translation method and shifts and discussion of differences between the Czech and the English attitude to the novella.

"Jesus Kind" Egon Bondy as Bohumil Hrabal's inspiration
Marek, Jakub ; Schmarc, Vít (advisor) ; Špirit, Michael (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with Egon Bondy's influence upon Bohumil Hrabal. First of all it sketches their relationship which was very friendly and which took place mainly in the fifties of the twentieth century. In the next section there is presented in two ways the influence of Egon Bondy on Bohumil Hrabal's literary works. As the first way is intended the influence of Bondy's concept of total realism upon Hrabal's early texts (see especially the story Jarmilka, also e.g. the story Blitzkrieg or the text collage Mrtvomat), the second way shows how was Egon Bondy used as a literary figure by Hrabal (e.g. the story Zamilovaná or prose Něžný barbar). The first point of interest is therefore origination and evolution of mythology of Bondy how it was processed by Hrabal in his proses and poems. Concurrently, this thesis tries to refer to works of other authors in which the Bondy's figure also occurs and then compare it with Hrabal's texts. In next part this thesis deals with Hrabal's inspiration coming from Bondy's poetic method of total realism which served him as a proper way of depiction of "estranged" reality of the fifties.

In my diploma thesis, I looked at part of Prague 8 - Libeň, in the kontext of the life and work of writer Bohumil Hrabal. I tried to show Libeň in the twentieth century, when the famous writer lived there. At first I made efforts to describe Bohumil Hrabal's life and Libeň, how we can find it in his books. Than I outlined the history of Libeň. In the main part I tried to show real locations in Libeň, which Bohumil Hrabal visited and he liked them. It was mainly Libeň castle, a lot of views of hills in Libeň, the vicinity of Vltava river and Rokytka brook and atmosphere of pubs in Libeň. The diploma thesis shows Libeň in last century especially in the kontext of Hrabal's trialogy Weddings in the house.
