Eva Krásová teaches theory of literature at the Institute of Czech Literature and Comparative Studies at the Faculty of Arts, Charles University in Prague.
Her research focuses on the history of thinking about literature, especially in the 20th century, using historiographical methods such as text genetics and work with archival documents. She is interested in the relations between Czech and French linguists mainly Emile Benveniste, Antoine Meillet, Jan Mukařovský, Vilém Mathesius, Vladimír Skalička, etc.
In addition, she has long been a lecturer in world literature in creative writing programmes, first at the Josef Škvorecký Literary Academy, and from 2015 to the present at the Text and Screenplay Department of the Jaroslav Ježek Conservatory and College, where she has had the opportunity to meet young poets in their
formative stages.
Her most recent professional interest is the analysis of popular culture using the tools of classical narratology and pop culture tropology and the resulting reflections on the place of literature in the contemporary media situation.
