Course objectives (in Czech): In this course, we will analyze certain textual and audiovisual works that are, in various ways, linked to the subject of social networks and digitality. We will also go through different theoretical approaches (Barabási, Moretti, Jagoda). We will focus on comparative analyses of the studied material, applying the given theoretical approaches on the examined works. Despite the key topic being mainly narrative (utopian and/or dystopian) works, we will also partially discuss the matter of poetry and digitality.
