Phenomenon of Anxiety in Beckett's Endgame
Horčicová, Zdeňka ; KOUBOVÁ, Alice (advisor) ; MUSILOVÁ, Martina (referee)
My master thesis inspects the phenomenon of anxiety in Samuel Beckett's Endgame. In this thesis, anxiety is seen from the phenomenological perspective . However, the explanation of anxiety by psychology and psychiatry is offered as well, so that more complex understanding is enabled. An analysis of Beckett's play is highly influenced by phenomenology, especially by Martin Heidegger, and also by the daseinsanalysis. In these connotations, we inspect Endgame, especially the situation of characters on the stage and the world of the play itself as a mirroring of the real world. We show that human existence is one of the most significant sources of anxiety, that it is innate to almost every human being from time to time, and that it has a remarkable dramatic potential. Although there is no final explication of Beckett's play, my thesis attempts to get closer to its understanding through the phenomenon of anxiety.
As a part of this thesis, the translation of one part of Stanley Cavell's essay called Ending the Waiting Game is included, which tries to explain the meaning of Endgame in a different way.

Waiting for Godot with Cat on the Rails (Formal and Thematic Overlaps of the Samuel Beckett's Play in the Play by Josef Topol)
Kykalová, Kateřina ; KYSELOVÁ, Eva (advisor) ; MUSILOVÁ, Martina (referee)
This bachelor thesis examines the formal and thematic overlaps of the Samuel Beckett's play Waiting for Godot in the play Cat on the Rails by Josef Topol. Through a comparison of both texts the work finds similarities and differences in their genres, composition, dialogue, language, time and space, layout and characteristics of the characters, theme and individual motives. An initial impetus for its creation was an identification of the same basic situation of waiting in both plays and a theme of rootlessness of human existence, which speaks through the two central couples which always complement each other by their contrasting temperaments. Gradually, however, the work finds also a fundamental difference of the texts, namely the location of dramatic conflict, which divides Évi and Véna in Cat on the Rails while in Waiting for Godot it stands between the two vagrants and a bleak human destiny.

Acting in Animation
Jarošová, Marie ; HANČIL, Jan (advisor) ; MUSILOVÁ, Martina (referee)
The master's thesis Acting in Animation reflects the author's experience, gained by combining studies of animation and of authorial acting. Her goal is to explore and propose what should be included in the theory of acting in animation. She then seeks general guidelines which animators and authors of animated films can apply in their work.
Can we call an animator "actor"? What general principles can we observe in the dramatic expression of animated characters? Who is an authorial animator?

Dynamika vybraných chemických vlastností povrchových horizontů Velkomeziříčska
Musilová, Martina
This thesis is focused on the potencial (pH/KCl) and the actual (pH/H2O) soil reaction fluctuation and with humus content in 15 different areas in the region of Velkomeziříčsko. There were taken some samples to assess the pH and humus content for three times in the autumn during the years 2011, 2012 and 2013 as damaged from the surface mineral horizon. My work is also consisted with the basic information about the soil reaction, content of humus in the soil, it's determination and the methods of the measurement evaluating and rating. By measuring was found that the average content of humus of the interest area is around 3,7 %. These values correspond to strongly humic soils. The highest content of humus was recorded at forest sites. The average value of actual soil reaction is 6,7 for the field and meadow and 4,2 for the forest. The average value of potencial soil reaction is 5,5 for the field and meadow and 3,3 for the forest. According to the one-factor-analysis of variance there isn't any influence on the date but there is some influence on the location in the statistics of taking the samples to study the change of pH/H2O and pH/KCl. According to the one-factor-analysis of variance there isn't any influence on the date and on the location in the statistics of taking the samples to study the change of humus content.

"Gâtée par le monde." Princess Alexandra of Dietrichstein's literary oeuvre
MUSILOVÁ, Martina
The thesis deals with a handwritten literary oeuvre by Francophone noblewoman Alexandra of Dietrichstein, born Shuvalov, which represents, by its extent, the unique case for the Bohemian lands. In what follows we interpret Princess Alexandra of Dietrichstein's political, religious, social and her literary opinions as well as her conception of sentiment and love on the basis of nine literary texts. Each of them represents a different genre there are short stories, novellas, novels and an educational treatise. Furthermore, her work originated within Francophone aristocratic culture in the Romantic period. Primarily, we focus on the development of the Francophone culture in Russia. Thanks to methods of cultural history and literary analysis of aesthetic norms we were able to demonstrate how her literary work developed over time in terms of ethics and aesthetics and point at the influence of the political and cultural changes in the period called in the Bohemian lands "in between times".

Work on collaborative authorial performance
Van Wagenenová, Kateřina ; MUSILOVÁ, Martina (advisor) ; POTUŽÁKOVÁ, Markéta (referee)
This thesis follows the genesis of three authorial performances, that I and my partners created in collaboration during my study at the Department of authorial creativity and pedagogy DAMU. From the perspective of my own experience I am trying to monitor the specifics of such cooperation, the issues of rehearsing and performing with a fixed script and without a fixed script but with a list of points/a score instead. I am describing the influence of impulses and reflections from pedagogues given to us during our quest and I am also mentioning the working methods and exercises used when discovering the performance and my reflections of rehearsals.
DVD of the three performances and two examples of point scripts is attached. One of which of a performance described in this thesis, the other of a solo authorial/devising work is attached for comparison.
