Parallelism in the Poetics of Juan Rulfo and María Luisa Bombal
Norocká, Monika ; Poláková, Dora (advisor) ; Housková, Anna (referee)
The aim of this Diploma Thesis is to bring attention to the resemblance between the work of one of the most important Hispanic American authors of 20th century, the Mexican Juan Rulfo, and his less well-known Chilean colleague, María Luisa Bombal. Even though the work of these writers has often been associated with the beginnings of the so-called Magical Realism, so far literary critics have not studied the parallelism in their poetics in detail. This work observes the deviation of these authors from the type of literature dominant in their time, and their effort to renovate it. Furthermore, it concerns the similarity in the approach to death in their work; it pays attention to the influence of the Nordic literature on their literary production. Another part of this work is dedicated to the parallels between the character of Susana San Juan from Rulfoˈs Pedro Páramo and Bombalˈs female characters. In addition to that, the work reflects the personal relationship between the authors in question.

The feminine world in the work of María Luisa Bombal
Norocká, Monika ; Poláková, Dora (advisor) ; Sánchez Fernández, Juan Antonio (referee)
This work examines writing of the Chilean author, M. L. Bombal (1910-1980), one of the first exponents of surrealism in prose in the region of Latin America. The work presents the position of women in the Latin American society of the first half of the 20th century to the reader, and on this background attempts to analyze the feminine world the author creates in her work. It focuses on its heroines and situations they live in and on this basis, investigates different components of their world - matrimony, love, sexual life, dream-like world and their fusion with nature. Another objective of the present work is to put in contrast of the feminine and masculine worlds and to capture the difference between them. It also briefly comments on the problems of feminism and its potential influence on the Bombal's narrative. Keywords: María Luisa Bombal, The House of Mist, The Shrouded Woman, feminine literature, surrealism
