Monograph
Drinková, Kristína ; Svobodová, Adéla (referee) ; Macháček, Mikuláš (advisor)
The aim of the diploma thesis is the graphic processing of the monographic publication of Kateřina Šedá. In my work I refer to the cooperation of designer, author and curator, with many aspects that influence us in the process of creation and define the result. The work of Kateřina Šedá consists predominantly of participatory actions, often linked to a specific place (excluded locality, housing estate, village), with events, interactions and the experiences of many people being the key output. The aim of the monograph is to provide a clear report on major authorial projects in one comprehensive publication. Considering the quantity, variety and complexity of Kateřina Šedá’s work, the work also includes searching for solutions and systems to process projects to a limited extent.

Portrait of columnist Alena Wagnerová
Máchová, Natalie ; Malý, Radek (advisor) ; Čeňková, Jana (referee)
This diploma thesis sums up the life and work of Alena Wagnerová with an emphasis on topics that she has reflected in her books and articles. Alena Wagnerová first started to publish her work in the magazine Plamen in the nineteen-sixties. By then, her interest in social problems and in stories of people marginalized by the society has already started to show. After her immigration to Germany, she has fully begun to focus on issues related to the equality between women and men and in 1974 she published her book Žena za socialismu: Československo 1945-1974 a reflexe vývoje před rokem 1989 a po něm. Later on she has also published for example a monograph about the baroness Sidionie Nádherná or Czech journalist Milena Jesenská and the Franz Kafka family. This thesis also marginally covers the oral history as a method, since Alena Wagnerová presents a significant representation of this type of methodology. Among her most important publications based on the oral history belong for instance Odsunuté vzpomínky and Neodsunuté vzpomínky, in which Wagnerová covers the post-war Czech-German relations in Sudeten. Even though Wagnerová mainly focuses on the non-fiction literature, she also writes fiction, which is covered in the diploma theses as well.

Literary Creation of Petru Popescu in Context of Romanian Post-war Literature
Horáková, Jarmila ; Valentová, Libuše (advisor) ; Šrámek, Jiří (referee) ; Vajdová, Libuša (referee)
During the communist era in Romania the literature and its authors had been under pressure of normative demands, which substantially restricted freedom of writing. The authors tried to escape the official socialist realism and restore the esthetic function of literature. In the introduction chapter of this work this evolution is described. One of the authors trying to restore the esthetic function of Romanian prose in the 60s was Petru Popescu inspired by the urban background and American literature. His novels express the emotions of the Romanian post-war young generation. Although being successful in his homeland he emmigrated to the USA in 1974, where he made a career as an English writing scenarist and novelist. Other chapters of this thesis describe his work from his poetic debut until his latest work. They reflect the changes in his choices of topics and narrative methods applying the F. K. Stanzel's literary theory. One of the chapters deals with general questions related to exile, writer's identity, selection of the languages and adaptation strategies. Key words: monograph, post-war literature, exile literature, communist regime, July Thesis, Ceaușescu's regime, bilingualism, popular fiction, narrator's role, fiction and non-fiction, adaptation, identity, creative nonfiction
