The Wire: Neoformalist Analysis and Analysis of Fictional Worlds
Svěrák, Matouš ; Hanáková, Petra (advisor) ; Svatoňová, Kateřina (referee)
In my thesis I analyze the narrative structure, style, fictional world of The Wire, and their mutual relationships. I use neoformalist theory as the basis of my analysis, but I also employ theory of serial fiction by Mgr. Radomír D. Kokeš, PhD., that he introduced in the textbook Intermediální poetika příběhu. I hope that I can help to demonstrate analytical benefits of this young theory. I also discuss historical and economical context that lead to the creation of The Wire, specific position of television network HBO, the producer of The Wire, on the television market and ways in which this position altered the final shape of analyzed series. I reflect the relationship between The Wire and reality, its specifics in the context of the genre of cop shows. I also put The Wire in the broader context of the rest of the output of executive producer and screenwriter David Simon. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
