English Students' Club, z.s.

The third volume of the Student Editions of English Renaissance Drama has recently been published. The series is supported by our department and its general editor is our student Anna Hrdinová. The book contains Czech translations of two thematically related plays: Shakespeare's "Much Ado About Nothing", translated by Anna Hrdinová herself, and the early-18th-century tragicomedy by Lewis Theobald "Double Falsehood", which was probably based on the lost play "Cardenio" by Shakespeare and his younger colleague John Fletcher. The play is for the first time presented to Czech readers in the translation by Filip Krajník. Both of the plays are accompanied by contextual studies outlining the context in which they were written, their relevance for our times and, in the case of "Much Ado About Nothing", its Czech translation and stage history. You may purchase this volume, as well as the previous ​ones, with a 10% discount at Masaryk University's e-shop or from selected booksellers.

V minulých dnech vyšel již třetí svazek edice anglických renesančních dramat ve studentských vydáních, který vede Anna Hrdinová při naší katedře. Kniha obsahuje české překlady dvou tematicky příbuzných her: Shakespearova "Tolika poprasku pro nic", který pod tímto názvem nově přeložila Anna Hrdinová, a tragikomedii Lewise Theobalda "Dvojí faleš" z počátku 18. století, založenou patrně na ztracené hře "Cardenio" Williama Shakespeara a jeho mladšího kolegy Johna Fletchera. Hra se v tomto svazku představuje v překladu Filipa Krajníka českým čtenářům poprvé. Obě hry doprovázejí kontextové studie osvětlující kontext, ve kterém díla vznikla, jejich význam pro současnost a v případě "Tolika poprasku pro nic" i jeho českou překladatelskou i divadelní tradici. Tento i oba předchoztí svazky si můžete pořídit s 10% slevou na e-shopu Masarykovy univerzity nebo u vybraných knihkupců.

We would like to invite you to a lecture given by Doctor Zita Turi from Károli Gáspár University of the Reformed Church in Hungary on the topic of writing a thesis. Are you stuck with your BA or MA thesis? Did you encounter a problem in the process of writing? Then this seminar is exactly for you.

This seminar guides BA and MA students through the process of writing a diploma thesis. Students will learn to develop a clear and focused research question, identify and evaluate academic sources, and structure their thesis in a logical manner. Emphasis will be placed on critical writing and on encouraging students to analyse and synthesise ideas rather than creating summaries of their sources. The course also provides practical instructions on referencing and citation styles to ensure academic integrity. By the end, students will have a basic checklist about how to produce a coherent, well-researched, and academically rigorous thesis that meets the standards of higher education.
