Matěj Anastazia Šimáček - the personality and the work
Vlasáková, Jana ; Hrabáková, Jaroslava (advisor) ; Stejskalová, Anna (referee)
Matěj Anastazia Simacek was a distinguished Czech writer, editor and publisher at the turn of the twentieth century. He was significantly involved in the development of the Czech literary criticism and forming a new generation of young authors which later established as Czech modernism. Although he was ranked among the most eminent personages of literature and culture in general, his name is now nearly unknown. Simacek's contribution to literature comprises of poetry, prose and drama. Though, his poetry is least valued. Due to ponderous style, appropriate for prose, and social issues, his poems are scarcely readable. Social issues link all Simacek's works. It is indisputable that he achieved much greater success in the field of prose and drama. Portrayal of sugar factories, civic society and the world of art salons was chosen as the central theme of his works. Detailed realistic depiction in some of his works is a perfect example of descriptive realism. Attracting attention to the problems of the proletariat perhaps remains the only Simacek's contribution to Czech literature. Nevertheless, he still did not perceive the proletariat as a powerful social class, thus his writings were neglected even at the time of relative popularity of such themes. From our modem perspective, Simacek is a notable personality...

Vlasáková, Jana ; Daďová, Klára (advisor) ; Malá, Michaela (referee)
Name: Assessment of the "New speaking" method in the treatment of stuttering Objectives: Stuttering is a serious speech disorder where the consequences can significantly handicap individuals. Except the common logopedic care, there are also different alternative methods, including group therapy with the name "New speaking". The purpose of this bachelor thesis is to evaluate the effect of this method from the perspective of two graduates. Methods: The main used method was exploratory (interview). Two subjects (female - 26 years old and male - 19 years old) participated in the case study. The interview consisted of fourteen questions. Results: Based on the analysis of the interviews it is possible to state that the "New Speech" method is working when the rules are followed. Absolvents perceive a subjectively significant improvement of speech with social and psychological consequences. Improvement in the social area can be supported by the fact that subjects are able to speak under all conditions and also that they perceive increase of job possibilities. The psychological improvement was less visible. It is suggested to work on their self-confidence and hardiness. Key words: speech disorder, stuttering, group therapy
