Syllabus:

This cycle of lectures and seminars gradually introduces students to problems specific to radio. About half of listening is of radio classics, and the rest covers contemporary works. Students are led to listen critically as a basis for the ability to perform basic analysis of broadcasting and to write criticism of the broadcasted dramatic programme. Shorter seminar exercises familiarize them with the restricted means of expression of radio for adaptation of theatrical texts for radio or for attempts at radio dramatization. Those with a deeper interest in radio are allowed to attend lectures on making (or creating) audio plays at Czech Radio studios.
