The topics of this master thesis are mainly findings on speech-therapy and the treatment of stuttering - stammering in the Czech and foreing reference literature. The work is divided into four chapters; three theoretical and one practical. The first theoretical chapter deals with stuttering-stammering, defines the basic concepts, deals with its etiology, symptoms and expresions, classification and division. The second chapter summarizes findings of balbuties in the Czech literature. The third chapter summarizes findings of balbuties on diagnosis and therapy in the English written literature. The fourth chapter is empirical and it is a quantitative empirical survey. The main method of data gathering was an online survey. The main purpose of the survey was to ascertain which methods and techniques are used when treating stuttering-stammering in the Czech Republic and in the Great Britain. The sub-chapters of the empirical part represent the scientific goals and chosen hypotheses, used methods, an actual processing of the quantitative survey and outcomes of the survey. KEYWORDS stuttering-stammering, balbuties, diagnosis, therapy, speech-therapy, reference literature

Resumo: Os elementos estruturais da narrativa do escritor português António Lobo Antunes tornam-se peças de um quebra-cabeça manipulado pelo autor, que, ao sinalizar para os escombros do contexto histórico reafirma os destroços da forma narrativa. Nesse processo se misturam os discursos jornalístico, político e religioso às vozes dos narradores e das personagens, dando origem a um instigante jogo polifônico. Com os romances Os Cus de Judas (1979), Fado Alexandrino (1983) e Exortação aos Crocodilos (1999), representativos de uma escrita que burla o discurso do autoritarismo, desautorizando-o e desautomatizando-o, enveredamos pelos meandros do grotesco e da ironia para expor os fragmentos de espaços marcados pelos acontecimentos de antes, durante e depois da Revolução dos Cravos e os fragmentos das guerras travadas, também, no interior das personagens. / Abstract: Structural elements of the Portuguese writer António Lobo Antunes' narratives are pieces of a puzzle manipulated by an author who tends to turn relative the ruins of historical context and reassert the wrecks of the narrative form. In this process, historical, political and religious speeches mix to the voices of narrators and characters, raising an enticing polyphonic game in which we intend to interact. With the South of Nowhere (1979), Fado Alexandrino (1983) and Exhortation to the Crocodiles (1999), we will go through meanders of irony, parody and grotesque to expose fragments of signed spaces through past events, throughout and after the Carnation Revolution and the wars engaged, also within characters - a space of writing that fools the authoritarianism speech, discrediting it and ending the automatic speech. / Orientador: Sônia Helena de Oliveira Raymundo Piteri / Coorientador: Ana Paula dos Duarte Arnaut / Banca: Lilian Jacoto / Banca: Márcia Valéria Zamboni Gobbi / Banca: Maria Heloísa Martins Dias / Doutor
