Abstrakt:
The main concern of this thesis is to depict the subjective experience of house and home in the selected prose fiction (I'm the King of the Castle, In the Springtime of the Year, The Beacon, The Woman in Black) by a British author, Susan Hill. The theoretical part attempts to provide an outline of the core ideas of Phenomenology and Humanistic geography, which serve as a point of departure for the subsequent analysis. The analytical part investigates the subjective experience, positive or negative, of house and home through the eyes of Hill's characters. The thesis concludes with a summary of findings.
