Lesák, Josef ; Peterka, Josef (advisor) ; Kubíček, Tomáš (referee)

The focus of this thesis consists of analysis of titles of contemporary Czech fiction. We wanted to answer the question, what are the titles about, analyzing the titles of different genres and types of titles. The hypothesis about titles has been confirmed. In the majority of cases it is truth that titles are closely connected with the subject matter of the book. Furthermore, some of the titles tell us something about authors, about their biography and their poetics. Thanks to their form they can signalize theme or/and genre, but they do not predicate of affiliation to popular or artistic literature (titles of artistic and popular literature differentiate not by their form, but rather by fitting-in to the text of a book that seems to be better thought through in the case of artistic literature than in the case of popular literature). Subtitles mostly refer to genre and theme. We also state features of postmodern titles...
