Representation of Everydayness in the Works of Group 42
LENCOVÁ, Pavla
The subject matter of this dissertation is the ways of representing the everydayness of life in poetic texts authored by members of Group 42. Of special interest is the category of time, as the transformation of understanding of this category is one of the cornerstone aspects of modern literature in the first half of the 20th century. Time as a category is reflected in Group 42 poetry through three principles used by the Group 42 authors to grasp and work with the time-space continuum and the place of humans in it. The fundamental principle of Group 42 poetry, which will be discussed in this thesis, is the fragmentarization principle. Using a fragment, the poet grasps the present, multi-layered moment and represents temporal discontinuity. Another principle of representation of everydayness the thesis will concentrate on is the principle of variations, which represents heading towards a unifying grasp of discontinuous everydayness. As opposed to the previous ways, notation in the form of diary entries then allows for the ability to better formulate the dynamics of successive temporal flow of everyday reality. The possibility of formulating the temporal mode on the field of a lyrical work is yet another topic discussed here. The temporal mode is then reflected in relation to the "myth of the modern humus", the proclamation of which was on the agenda of Group 42 in its time.

Socialist realism and so called total realism: main characteristics of poetics, similarities and differences
Sieberová, Jana ; Bílek, Petr (advisor) ; Schmarc, Vít (referee)
This diploma thesis mainly deals with the relationships between the poetic manifestations of socialist realism and so called total realism in the early fifties. The first part focuses on general issues; within it I try to describe characteristic features of both poetics, for total realism it is done mostly in the background of comparison with like-minded concepts (Hrabal's poems from the fifties, the works of former members of Group 42). In other chapters of the text I am thinking about a total realism from two aspects: first, as an alternative form of realism, which defines itself against the official art, as well as a program that is dependent on the official art to some extent by paraphrasing or using some of its means and resources.

LENCOVÁ, Pavla
This diploma thesis is focused on exploring the forms of representing the lyric subject in the poetry of authors in Group 42 with a special focus on the forms of depicting the existential status in the text. Prior to the analysis of forms of representation of the lyric subject in the poetry of Group 42, attention will firstly be drawn to the changes of lyrical discourse in the 40's and 50's of the 20th century. Further on the ways of representation of the subject will be examined as well as the ways of depicting reality in the works of the authors of Group 42. At the end of this thesis, based on previous analysis, attention will be drawn to in what ways are principles of existential imagination depicted in the space of a lyrical piece of work.
