The right of a woman to decide on perinatal care
Hůlková, Kateřina ; Šustek, Petr (referee)
This thesis deals with the topic of providing perinatal care from the patient's point of view. The aim of the thesis is to use national legislation and decisions of Czech and international courts to determine under what conditions a woman has the right to decide on the provided health services. From the legal point of view the area of perinatal care brings many questions where it is not easy, also with regard to the ethical aspect of things, to find an answer. During the pregnancy and childbirth, there are situations in which two constitutionally guaranteed rights conflict and with regard to the health services provided, it is necessary to evaluate the situation individually. In the introductory chapters the thesis summarizes the legal regulation including the constitutional law of the provision of health services. Emphasis is placed on the rights of the patient, especially the possibility to decide on the provided health care in different situations. A separate chapter is devoted to the institute of previously expressed wish and its application to the period of delivery. In the context of postnatal care, the legal regulation of parents' decisions about the health services provided to their child is mentioned. The field of healthcare law requires the introduction of legislation into the context of...

Toni Morrison; Magical Realism Serving to Outline Cultural Experience
Hůlková, Kateřina ; Veselá, Pavla (advisor) ; Roraback, Erik Sherman (referee)
Thesis Abstract In my thesis I focus on the application and role of magical realism in Toni Morrison's two novels, Song of Solomon and Beloved. Because the supernatural elements in these two stories serve mainly as catalytic forces that reveal hidden and submerged realities of the characters' lives, my goal was to discuss and determine Morrison's motivations for the use of magical realism, its purpose, and possible final results of the writer's literary effort. I began by analyzing Morrison's own critical work in which she focuses on her position as a writer being confronted with the dehumanized picture of blackness the way it was created by white Americans in order to preserve their own humanity in the wilderness of the New World. As for the literary language, the writer argues that the said point of view and the literary tradition that stems from it offer only two possible approaches: incursive glorification of the minority, or defensive conformity. These nevertheless appear to be metaphorical blind alleys to her attempts, as none has a potential to create an authentic picture of African Americans. A relevant hindering obstacle to mention is that a lot was lost through the process of dehumanization. My attempt was to demonstrate that by the application of magical realism, Morrison tries to re-humanize (to...

THEATRE CONTRACTS
Hůlková, Kateřina ; SRSTKA, Jiří (advisor) ; VYSKOČIL, František (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to create a collection of the most commonly used types of theatre contracts and of their practical applications in theatre practice.
The opening passage informs the reader about legal forms applicable for theatre activities. The main part of the work analyses legal conditions related to those contract types that are most commonly applied in theatre. The final part treats the application of contract types in theatre practice. So this part refers to concrete theatre professions and the contracts types concludable with them by the theatre.
The following bachelor's thesis could become a helpful students' aid at the Department of Arts management at the Theatre Faculty of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague ? both for study purposes and realization of new theatre projects.
