Name of lecturer(s):
Vít JANEČEK
Study Objectives:

In lectures students master the fundamental historiographic line of development of Czech and international documentary film and watch the basic examples or films which represent this.

Mode of delivery:

Lectures linked to film screenings and subsequent discussions.

Prerequisites and co-requisites:

Considering the nature of the course, a contextual overview of the main writers, works and their data are required. Along with participation in lectures, a knowledge of the main synthetic works of obligatory literature are required. Confirmation of knowledge will be done with a test and oral exam which will take place directly after the test and can change the results of the confirmation of knowledge /based on the test/ about one grade. If the oral exam displays a lack of knowledge in some key areas the entire testing will be repeated.

Recommended optional programme components
Course contents:

The method of these lectures originates in the same examples in the Survey of the History of World Cinema course at a more extensive level. The lecture and discussion with students are supplemented with film screenings. The agreed convention in the instruction of the History of Cinema at FAMU is that the „history“ is cosidered as up to period of the end of the 1980s. Later periods make up, in particular, the content of lectures devoted to contemporary documentary film (Petr Kubica, Documentary Dept.), or other lectures or modules.
