Major themes in Ryu Murakami's prosaic work
Nešpor, Filip ; Tirala, Martin (advisor) ; Kanasugi, Petra (referee)
This bachelor's thesis deals with the subject of the Japanese author Murakami Ryu and the major themes in his works. I have chosen four of his novels as representative works, i.e. Almost Transparent Blue; Piercing; In the Miso Soup and Sixty Nine. I work on the assumption that there are three key motives in author's work (violence, sex and life near American military bases) and I would like to prove that the author uses these motives to highlight the problems in the Japanese society and to critcize it to some extent. The aim of the first part is to present the author and chosen works, the second part is devoted to the chosen motives and their analysis. As far as methodology is concerned, it is based on the fictional worlds theory.
