Mankovecká, Alžběta Anna ; Vaňková, Irena (advisor) ; Vinš, Ondřej (referee)
The thesis focuses on the reconstruction of the stereotype of a deaf person (hluchý/neslyšící) in the Czech society, based on a questionnaire survey.

With the help of Czech dictionaries and previous works, the central position of the Czech stereotype of a deaf person is briefly described based on systemic, or folklore data. The core of this thesis is qualitative empirical research inspired by J. Bartmińský's methodology (100 respondents in two age and social groups, open-ended questions directed at the basic positions of the stereotype: appearance, characteristics, behavior, etc.). At the end of the thesis, a structured cognitive definition is presented connected with the social stereotype of a deaf person in today's Czech society. The Discussion chapter follows, where, in addition to...

Name Signs for Chosen Czech Politicians in the Czech Sign Language
Nováková, Eva ; Vaňková, Irena (advisor) ; Macurová, Alena (referee)
This bachelor's thesis focuses on the name signs of chosen Czech politicians in the Czech sign language. The main objective is to describe and classify those signs and point out tendencies for their creation, for example, those related to political correctness. Name signs used among the Deaf are later compared to those used in the news program in Czech sign language (Zprávy v českém znakovém jazyce). The first part of the thesis covers proper nouns in the Czech language, heavily focusing on anthroponyms and their types which the author considers relevant for the thesis. The next chapter characterizes name signs and their categorization, which is based on the diploma thesis by Radka Faltínová (2005). The research part of the thesis describes and categorizes all the variations of the name signs collected from respondents and the news program in Czech sign language (Zprávy v českém znakovém jazyce). The author compares these two groups of name signs and comments on potential links between the frequency in which people watch the TV news in Czech sign language (Zprávy v českém znakovém jazyce) and used variants of the name signs. The thesis also provides an insight into the tendencies while creating a new name sign for public figures. Keywords Czech sign language, name signs, proper names, Czech politicians

Oppositeness in Czech and it's linguistic picture of the world
Znamenáčková, Eva ; Vaňková, Irena (advisor) ; Macurová, Alena (referee)
Práce se zabývá opozitními významovými relacemi mezi lexikálními jednotkami ve slovní zásobě, jež vyjadřují pojmové opozice v našem myšlení a konceptualizaci skutečnosti. Popisuje opozita z hlediska lexikologie (jako součást jazykového systému) a z hlediska stylistiky (zejm. jejich úlohu ve figurách a kompozici); směřuje k souvislostem mezi poznatky z těchto lingvistických disciplín a tím, jakje opozitní vztah vnímám obecně, jakou má úlohu v orientaci člověka ve světě, resp. jaký má podíl na utváření našeho jazykového obrazu světa. Tato práce vychází především ze zdrojů odborné literatury "tradiční" strukturalistické jazykovědy a prací lingvistiky kognitivně-kulturní. Dělí se v zásadě na dvě části, z nichž první je převážně výkladová, zabývá se definicí opozitnosti, relevantními rysy opozit, jejich klasifikací, aspekty opozitnosti a souvisejícími tématy v rámci lingvistiky. V druhé části popisuje jazykový obraz světa v české lidové slovesnosti prostřednictvím analýzy opozitních vztahů - jak v rovině lexikálně-sémantické, tak v rovině zobrazované skutečnosti.
Language and Style of Underground Children's Books
Kubová, Kateřina ; Mareš, Petr (advisor) ; Vaňková, Irena (referee)
Kubova, Katerina: Language and Style of Underground Children's Books: The Thesis. Prague: The Faculty of Arts of The Charles University, Institute of Czech Language and Theory of Communication, 2011. Thesis Advisor: Prof. PhDr. Petr Mares, CSc. This thesis aims to examine the linguistic and stylistic aspects of Czech underground literature for children. In the first part, it focuses on the specifics of children's literature and on the term "child aspect" which serves as a criterion for further analysis of selected texts. The thesis also presents selected writers of children's literature and their work. The linguistic and stylistic analysis is largely based on the book Současná stylistika (The Contemporary Czech Stylistics), which characterizes the individual linguistic levels of a fictional text. Texts for children, written by Egond Bondy and Ivan Martin Jirous, the most prominent figures of the Czech cultural underground of the 1970's and 1980's, are analyzed. Finally, the linguistic and stylistic features of the samizdat anthology Čert má kopyto… (The Devil Has a Hoof…), which represents a sum of the Czech underground literature for children, are examined, determining texts that meet both the criterion of the children's literature and the criterion of the underground poetics, and therefore...
The Human Being in Riddles. Contribution to the linguistic Picture of the World in Czech
Boháčková, Linda ; Vaňková, Irena (advisor) ; Janeček, Petr (referee)
Riddles can refer to all spheres of human being. The thesis is based on contemporary theories and methods of cognitive linguistics and etnolinguistics: riddles can be seen as a specific semiotic system, which contains references to the certain way of understanding the world. The aim of this thesis is to define the linguistic picture of human being and human body in Czech folk riddles. The article of etnolinguist H. Kazancewa provides the methodical basis. Riddles can be classified: riddles about human ontogenesis are in the first group, rhyming riddles describing human body and its parts using neologisms are in the second group, riddles about organs and parts of the body are in the third group. Part of human body can be encoded on the basis of its appearance, or on the basis of its function, or both. Sets of organs in the second and in the third group differ. Head, hair, eyes, nose, mouth, hands (and arms) and legs appear in both groups - they have the central position in the linguistic picture of the human body in Czech. The second group of riddles encodes forhead, stomach, knees, feet and heels in addition. The third group of riddles encodes teeth, tongue, beard, fingers and ears in addition. Some parts of human body - back, buttocks, genitals - appear exceptionally or are missing. Riddles about...
