The main aim of the thesis is to discuss a task of translation of low lexicon (esp. vulgarism) from Russian into Czech. Low lexion discussed in the thesis is based on texts of contemporary russian prose written by V. Kozlov. At first we compare both national languages especially their sociolects and specific layer of vulgarism. This layer is then analyzed in Russian and in Czech, which allow us to understand common and different fields in it. There is no direct equivalent in Czech to russian mat (a layer of highly expressive lexicon in Russian). According to functional equvalence we can show the way, how to substitute this lack of expressive lexicon in translation to Czech.

This thesis consists of two parts ? theoretical and practical. The theoretical part is focused on the topics of beautiful book ? i.e. bibliophilia, artist?s book, illustration, and overall literary art. The basis for the practical part of this thesis is figure and work, namely ?The Day of the Triffids? by John Wyndham, as well as meaning and place of science fiction in the world of art. The practical part consists of set of illustrations, a cover design and a typographical solution of the book ?The Day of the Triffids? The aim of this work was to create a book, which could be classified as valuable literature, not only by its contents, but by its appearance as well.

Taking such works as high level journalistic-literary productions in expression, we mean to study the paths taken by the authors searching for an artistic improvement of primary texts, viewing the production of works accepted by the literary canon. Keeping this in mind, taking as a basis the interdiscursive theory and the systematization of certain peculiarities of Literary Journalism, by Norman Sims. Thus, the study examines the literary content in these works, meaning to evaluate the aesthetic and thematic levels in them, with the intention to confirm the thesis that in such examples of journalistic practice happens an important association between thought and expression, as well as it is possible to verify the constitution of broad development both in artistic potentiality and ideological virtualities in the text. Recognizing that the subjects which originated the works passed through transformation and transposition processes in what concerns not only the formal but also the content aspects this study applies to the examination of the referred evolutions which culminate in the production of works recognized as reference productions of historical, scientific, artistic and literary characters. The applied methodology is based on a comparative analysis of the initial versions from O Egipto and Os Sertões, published by daily media press, and a selection of their equivalent passages in their literary versions. We mean to demonstrate that, besides the idea that both versions have a review posture in conceptual terms, there is always an important preoccupation viewing the retaking of a journey towards the literary elevation of the text, once it is possible to recognize, in the last editions, the existence of an aesthetic development of the queirosian and euclidean thoughts. The theme of the present research is, so, the ethic and aesthetic realignment which gave origin to artistic productions in which form and content are priorized in a balanced way. / Esta investigação tem por objetivo provar que houve um processo de aprimoramento estético nas produções jornalísticas das quais derivaram as obras O Egipto, de Eça de Queirós, e Os Sertões, de Euclides da Cunha. Entendendo as referidas obras como produções jornalístico-literárias de elevado grau de expressividade, intenta-se o estudo dos caminhos percorridos pelos autores rumo ao aperfeiçoamento artístico dos textos primários, com vistas à produção de trabalhos aceitos pelo cânone literário. Com esta finalidade, apóia-se na teoria da interdiscursividade e na sistematização das particularidades do Jornalismo Literário, de Norman Sims. Assim, o estudo versa sobre o teor de literariedade presente nestas obras, objetivando uma avaliação dos planos estético e temático das mesmas. Dessa maneira, pretende-se confirmar a tese de que nestes exemplos de prática de Jornalismo Literário acontece um importante consórcio entre pensamento e expressão, bem como se verifica a configuração do desenvolvimento pleno tanto das potencialidades artísticas quanto das virtualidades ideológicas do texto. Reconhecendo que as matérias que originaram as obras passaram por processos de transformação e de transposição no concernente não só ao aspecto formal como também no que diz respeito ao aspecto conteudístico , este trabalho destina-se ao exame das referidas evoluções, que culminaram com a produção de trabalhos tidos como referência de produções de caráter histórico-científico e de cunho artístico-literário. A metodologia utilizada baseia-se em uma análise comparativa entre recortes das versões iniciais de O Egipto e de Os Sertões, publicadas em mídia impressa diária, e uma seleção das passagens equivalentes, localizadas nas respectivas produções literárias. O que se demonstra é que, além de haver em ambas as obras uma revisão de postura em termos conceituais, existe também uma importante preocupação de retomada de um percurso rumo ao engrandecimento literário da obra, uma vez que é possível reconhecer, nas últimas edições, a existência de um aprofundamento da estetização dos pensamentos queirosiano e euclidiano. O tema da presente pesquisa é, pois, o realinhamento ético e estético que deu origem a produções artísticas nas quais forma e conteúdo são equilibradamente priorizados.

Denna studie syftar till att se vilka skillnader som går att urskilja mellan tre olika svenska översättningar av Arthur Conan Doyles A study in scarlet. Vidare syftar studien också till att se hur dessa skillnader förhåller sig till den så kallade nyöversättningshypotesen, som menar att varje ny översättning blir allt mer lik källtexten, samt de olika översättningsideal som varit norm under respektive tillkomsttid. Genom dels en kvantitativ analys och dels kvalitativ närläsning studeras språkliga, kulturella och övriga faktorer. Studien visar att nyöversättningshypotesen främst går att verifiera gällande språkliga faktorer och att samtliga översättningar till stor del speglar sina respektive samtiders översättningsideal. Det gör att lärare i de flesta fall kan välja översättningar efter hur bra deras respektive samtidsideal passar läsningens didaktiska syfte. Studien visar också på olika aspekter i A study in scarlet som i översättning försvårar läsarens förståelse av texten, vilket också är nyttigt för lärare att vara medvetna om i val av utgåva.

This diploma thesis deals with the use of non-fiction literature, specifically a visual guide titled To je Mnichov / München by Miroslav Sasek in teaching German as foreign language in primary schools. It consists of three parts, the first two being theoretical and the third one being practice-oriented. The first chapter delves into the general context of the issue and focuses on the position of the German language. It tackles four main aspects of teaching foreign language: the language as a communication medium, teaching grammer, uncovering culture and history and serving the general purpose of literary and intercultural education. The second chapter further follows the goal of seeing non-fiction literature as a potential source of knowledge and information about the country in focus. The third chapter presents an application of this theory, developer by the author of this thesis. The methodological approach is based on a document titled ABCD-Thesen published in 1990 in Leipzig which introduces the potential in using non-fiction literature in the form of projects. The last section of the thesis can also be used as a direct methododlogical manual for executing the project To je Mnichov / München in primary schools. Furthermore, this thesis can also be used as a based for teachers of other foreign...
