Jiskrová, Zuzana ; Mocná, Dagmar (referee) ; Peterka, Josef (advisor)
This study tries to map the phenomenon of the personality of Jára Cimrman and of the humour present in the plays of his authors. It is mainly a literary study. A theatrologic view is used only in some parts of my work where it is necessary for the right understanding of the problem and the perception of the whole breadth of its humour. General knowledge about the poetic of the plays is then concretisized by the attempt of interpretation of the final play of the cycle - Czech Heaven - that have been predetermined to final and summarizing deal by the subtitle "Cimrman's dramatic testament." The study tries to answer a basic question: "What and why do we laugh with Jára Cimrman at?" At what? Almost at all. Why? Because it is funny. The comic is in case of the Cimrmans created by many aspects which are analysed in this study step by step. There is no one answer. The brand Smoljak & Svěrák has created admirable ficticious world under the shield of mystification and face of Czech genius Jára Cimrman. They touch the theme of Czech national feeling, in a witty way they remember us and sometimes they criticise kindly our Czech stereotypes by using all possible comical levels. The authors have filled in a certain way a gap in the Czech culture and literature by the fact that they have added another giant into not too...

Mikulášek Square Brno
Švéda, Petr ; Fišer, Jiří (referee) ; Odvárka, Antonín (advisor) ; Štěpánek, Ladislav (advisor)
The bachelor’s thesis solves one of the buildings of an extensive designed urban area in Mikulášek Square in Starý Lískovec, Brno. The area is spreading between two rows of eight-floor-blocks. Main goal of this project is to preserve the green areas for recreation purposes and to create an urban square that will be used as a public space with all of the community functions. That goal is accomplished by using the green roofs, the buildings, sunken halfway under a surrounding terrain, and by the soil-covered back sides of building. That enables access to the roofs for public; roofs become a part of the park. The organic-shaped urban “double-square” is spanned by a pedestrian bridge for an easier traffic. The main idea of The Cultural Center proposal is based on variability of space. Around the cultural hall, from all four sides, there is a gallery, which enables wider usage (e. g. for an avant-garde theatre performance). A huge multi-level common and an exhibition space are ones of most important spaces. The visitors will be able to have an exhilarating experience of exciting dimension of space. The Cultural Center is connected to surroundings via both floors. That makes it possible to organize some outdoor cultural performances which can easily continue to the interior.

Králíčková, Markéta ; Váňová, Miroslava (advisor) ; Beneš, Zdeněk (referee) ; Rýdl K., (referee)
The current Pedagogical Museum of J. A. Comenius belongs to one of the oldest museums in the Czech Republic. Its more than a hundred-year-old historyhas been accompanied by several turning points in its whole existence. With the initiation ofthis establish mentwe see teachers of elementary and municipal education trying to give birth to an institution which would preserve and document the development of the Czech educational system. From 1880 teachers worked hard to realize an institution that would preserve the cultural heritage of J. A. Comenius. Together with the upcoming 300th anniversary celebration of J. A. Comenius' birth their idea was initiated by Josef Klika at the Literary Union meeting held in 1889. The collection was successfully presented at theRegional Jubilee Exhibition in 1891 in the Municipal Museum in Prague in 1892 and at the Ethnographic Exhibition in 1895. The Comenius Museum was then transferred under the collective stock of Permanent Exhibition of Education (St,ila vystava skolska) to stay there until a new pedagogical museum could be established in Prague. Finally, in 1916 the newly founded Pedagogical Museum of J. A. Comenius was presented atits opening ceremony.

Čábelková Nahorniaková, Marcela ; Kyselka, Mojmír (referee) ; Budkeová, Branislava (referee) ; Glosová, Dagmar (referee) ; Menšíková, Naděžda (advisor)
Organic architecture is often used term especially in connection with the daring and experimental form. The exact definition or division is still missing. The founder of modern organic architecture is to be generally considered as Frank Loyd Wright. He was the man who created organic architecture and also made first definition in the early twentieth century, when formulating new architectural styles. Dissertation deals with insufficiently described problem of organic architecture. The main focus is on contemporary production of residential organic architecture in Central Europe. Especially on the particular realizations in Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovak Republic, Austria, Germany and Poland. Beside detail description of European realizations, the dissertation deals also with foundations of organic architecture in U.S.A. and important realizations here. Modern organic architecture primarily originated in the United States of America. The work presents most important contemporary realizations and architects creating resident living organic architecture in other countries around the world in order to complete the overview. The objective of dissertation was describing newest trends in designing buildings for living. Find position of organic architecture and give reasons for it´s increasing popularity, spread and necessity for new development in architecture according to the new trends. Organic architecture is an alternative way of contemporary residential living. It´s popularity is growing in last years in response to the development of modern technologies and materials, the need to protect our natural resources and also to the increasing negatives of globalization and to denial of local traditions and regional specificities. Aspects of organic forms were divided into three main groups according to their main characteristics: form, harmony and sustainable development. Another objective was find location of contemporary organic residential architecture in Czech Republic and abroad. It is rather spread all over the world than concentrated on certain places. Therefore I selected countries that are richer than the others on the occurrence of organic buildings. The objective was also to address architects, specialists, public and especially university teachers of architecture and students themselves. Communication with them was mainly connected with grant project in 2010. The theme of grant project was contemporary organic architecture in residential living. There were lectures about contemporary organic architecture and exhibition on the theme: Contemporary living organic architecture. The publication of the catalog was published under the title: Contemporary organic houses - Europe. I had the opportunity to visit a number of organic family houses abroad. Specifically houses in Slovakia, Hungary and Germany. Results of survey, which was realized by questions to owners and authors of chosen buildings, are included in dissertation. The mail results of dissertation are - make a detail review of organic architecture in residential living - define trends in contemporary organic architecture and residential living - obtain and process answers from owners and authors of chosen buildings within survey - analysis of organic house ( houses) in city planning and landscape - publication of catalogue focused on organic contemporary European houses - article about contemporary organic architecture and residential living will be published in 2012 on archiweb page

The Effect of Thermal Exposure of the Porosity and Mineralogy of Dense Silica Bricks.
Janek, Ondřej ; Kotouček, Miroslav (referee) ; Nevřivová, Lenka (advisor)
Silica bricks is a refractory building material which contains at least 93 % of silicon dioxide in polymorphic forms, mostly -tridymite, -cristobalite and unreacted -quartz. In glass industry is used for building crowns of glass tanks and in coke industry is used for building coke oven batteries. The advantage is the high refractoriness under load, high resistance to acidic melts. The disadvantage is the low resistance to changes in temperature below 600 °C. The thesis deals with the influence of repeated firing on the silica bricks and to its porous structure and mineralogical composition.

Gorejová, Andrea ; Zemánek, Václav (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
The area was from its inception a hub of not only the surrounding area but the entire region. Founding order of monks founded it in the mid-13th century, amid wild Žďárské Hills. The monastery is a significant push for the development of agriculture, education, and also brought the new technology. Its peak in the area enjoyed under the guidance of an enlightened abbot Vaclav Vejmluva, who advocated the architecturally unique. He invited architect Jan Blazej Santini Aichel to design complex remodeling and designing the pilgrimage church of St. John of Nepomuk on Green Mountain. It is this unique today is inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List for its unique style of Baroque Gothic. The monastery was closed by decree of Emperor Joseph II. in 1784. Shortly after he was bought by the nobility. Despite these events complex kept its position as a cultural and educational center continues to serve lidem.1930 lock acquires ownership of the Kinsky family, but in 1948 there is a nationalization of assets transferred under the management and ownership of the state. This period brought a large decline of the entire complex, which after centuries of its unique position came. Today's attempt to correct these errors started after returning the property to its original owners, the Kinsky family. Current owner Konstantin Kinský trying to build on the tradition and education. Very convenient position at the junction large cities of Prague and Brno, architectural and historic qualities combined with the beauty and diversity of the surrounding nature helps lock to become a major tourist center. The aim is to underline this position a lucrative background and offering his own castle, while keeping genius loci and underline its importance. Given the set goal and the architecture of the campus, I divided the complex into three zones, which are variable deeper into the area treat. The first zone is public, it consists of museums, galleries and meeting facilities, it is the noisiest and accessible first. Serve as regular visitors and tourists who are staying in the area. This zone is a kind of buffer, protecting the gradual calming. The second zone is a semi-public, already serves local school pupils and visitors to the spa and hotel guests. This zone also serves as an access and smoothing filter. The last zone is semi-private. Almost in its entirety it occupies park hotel, which dates back to the shore of the pond and is adjacent to the private gardens of Princess Tamara Kinski. This environment is free from all the noise and undesirable elements associated with heavy traffic roads and features associated with the first zones. They serve as a refuge. All zones are connected barrier-covered footbridge, which starts at and ends up on the edge of the complex ecology museum. This bridge will merge as a kind of mediator and connections between functions and increases the comfort offered. The bridge is fully enclosed and provides a safe journey and a refuge from the often raw local weather. The entire complex is designed as a universally embracing space. The area serves primarily for the pleasure of the mind and soul and allow himself to penetrate wildness and diversity Zdarske nature. Scale remains a very human and avoids congestion visitor. They serve as a refuge in the wildness of the landscape and the environment as a place of education, culture and history.

Sanitary Ceramics
Foret, Martin ; Kolařík, Pavel (referee) ; Zdařil, Zdeněk (advisor)
My thesis is a presentation of Jika Laufen for the international exhibition Expo 2015 in Milan. The work consists of designing and installing sinks into the exposure so that they are in a uniform manner. I designed the concept of the well for several reasons: the bathroom is an intimate space where it should be emphasized emotion , atmosphere and feelings. It is a space where a person should relax. The second aspect is that the ceramic has an organic origin, came from the ground and through the fire becomes very durable and solid. A no less important is the third aspect, exist on the context. Expo is an international exhibition and therefore the presentation of this forest exposure does not represent a Czech company, but also a Czech environment, where you will find beautiful nature and sources of known rivers. My concept is based on emotion and contrast materials. Delicate white ceramics have planted in a sharp stone and dark green leafy moss, creating a contrast full voltage . The exhibition of this type should not be missed even modern technology. That is my proposal represented feeler drain, which is around the perimeter of the sink hidden under the edge so as not to disturb the perception of the whole.

Projecting Film Into Painting
Lorenz, Petr ; Sobotka, Jiří (referee) ; Mikyta, Svätopluk (advisor)
Film screenings in painting In his theoretical work and film storyboard artwork I had the opportunity to prepare the philosophical basis for the practical part of the thesis. I was inspired by many authors with different approaches to film and film footage contemplation. For me as a creator, it was important to work with what is well-known. I dealt with the question of whether he could reality that surrounds us, filmic look when she make her over. After previous experience of seeing the painting, which draws on the film composition and borrowing of foreign ideas, I decided - as well as a film director - search for compositions which can be seen in the reality around us. Following my bachelor thesis, which was purely monochromatic cycle, I now chose a color theme and I returned to the activities that precede the making of the film. Our eye can function as a film lens. A seemingly ordinary reality is for me a pretext for building atmospheric film scene. For a long time I wore a camera with me, which was ready to use the moment I discovered an interesting space or situation. Patterns for paintings I naturally found in my travels around the city. I specifically sought location, which could be part of an imaginary film. For me, the composition under sunny streets huddled different feeling and unfinished, something that comes and works below the surface of each image in parallel. I hope linking reality and personal paintings will boost the atmosphere as value added. Name Film screenings in painting refers to the vocabulary filmmakers, the author looks at the experiences around film composition. In my work I wanted to simulate the Czech local, peculiar atmosphere of the place. During the work, there was a change from the original plan, and that the originals are really own, nevypůjčené. Heroes paintings are everyday people with their personal stories. However, there is a blending and assimilation of different film genres. For example, an image with the workers and the working machine has a compositional compliance with the sci-fi film, light and story recall something that we could ever see. Compared painters who have the means to extensive designed templates, I worked with a range that can be found only through accurate observation of reality. Construction patterns and Figures, therefore, actor scene, I could not prepare in advance. I counted with the fact that something interesting camera ready to capture and scene appeared before me. A crucial part of the process of my work was therefore observation and effort as possible to capture the genius loci.
