The world without borders in S.T. Kondrotas work
Fantová, Martina ; Lemeškin, Ilja (advisor) ; Šeferis, Vaidas (referee)
Diploma work is focused on the work of a contemporary Lithuanian prose writer Saulius Tomas Kondrotas (1953). His tales and novels are placed into the Lithuanian and world literary context. The impact of magic realism and surrealism is confirmed; an inspiration is found in the work of other authors as F. M. Dostojevskij or W. Faulkner. Kondrotas is appreciated for individual style and topics common for his work, such as a phenomenon of death, detailed recitation, border crossing of common life perception, colourful description. The tales and especially the structure of novels are full of not only biblical, but also pagan and mythy motives.

The usage of participles and transgressives of the verbs "buti" (to be), "sakyti (to say) in contemporary texts. Their equivalents in Czech and Latvian languages
Durmanová, Lucie ; Lemeškin, Ilja (advisor) ; Marvan, Jiří (referee)
In my thesis "The usage of participles and transgressives of the verbs "bti" (to be), "sakyti" (to say) in contemporary texts. Their equivalents in Czech and Latvian languages" the object of my research is a grammatical phenomenon of indefinite verb forms in the narrow sense of the Lithuanian, Czech and Latvian languages. The subject matter is a treatise of various forms of participles and transgressives (we are not specifically concerned with infinitive in this thesis), chiefly in the Lithuanian language, but in relation to the Czech and Latvian language. Participles and transgressives are regarded as grammatical units, which are an integral part of a modern-day language; however the currency of their usage, in contrast to the past, is fading. We have focused on a summary of existing knowledge of participles and transgressives in the Lithuanian, Latvian and Czech language, pointing out the similarities and differences among them; on collection of actual language materials and the analysis of the usage in the Bibliographic database of Lithuanian newspaper articles (Lith. Bibliografin Lietuvos periodins spaudos straipsni baz; a collection of articles, published in Lithuanian printed media from 1994 to 2002). One of the objectives of my thesis was to compare equivalents of Lithuanian, Latvian and Czech forms,...

The perception of "home" and "journey" in Russian proverbs
Součková, Veronika ; Lemeškin, Ilja (advisor) ; Uličná, Olga (referee)
Percepce prostoru domova a prostoru cesty spolu s reflexí postavení hostů/ cizinců v ruské lidové kultuře je velmi zajímavý lingvisticko-sociologický fenomén, jehož zkoumání se dotýká řady vědních oborů - psychologie, sociologie, folkloristiky, lingvistiky, etnoligvistiky apod. Prostor domova a prostor cesty spolu s přechodnou sférou mezi nimi (~. status cizinců/hostů) tvoří páteřní strukturu lidského světa a jsou základní součástí života každého jednotlivce. Zkoumáním otázek souvisejících s reflexí těchto životních sfér v ruském folklóru se zatím zabýval jen nevelký počet lingvistických, sociolingvistických či lingvofolkoristických prací. Ve své profesi práce s cizinci a uprchlíky jsem se často setkala s mnoha formami přístupu k osobám přicházejícím do usedlé společnosti "zvenčí". Na řadě konkrétních příkladů jsem si uvědomila hluboké rozdíly v tom, jakým způsobem společnost vnímá "své" a "cizí, pocházející odjinud". Je zřejmé, že tyto sociální jevy nejsou nijak nové a že jejich odraz lze nalézt v různých oblastech života člověka, tedy i v jazyce. Z toho důvodu jsem se rozhodla věnovat pozornost analýze reflexe obrazu domova a cesty v ruském jazyce.

Scandinavian elements in the language of Old East Slavic legal codes
Štěříková, Hana ; Lemeškin, Ilja (advisor) ; Blažek, Václav (referee) ; Starý, Jiří (referee)
The doctoral thesis Scandinavian elements in the language of Old East Slavic legal codes consists of three main parts. The first of them puts the topic in connection with previous research and assorts it both according to chronology and ideologic influences, that have had a grave impact on scientific publications concerning the disputes over Varangians and the beginning of East-Slavic history. The lack of scientific objectivity shows not only in historical studies, but also in philological works, since linguistics played only a helping role in order to deliver proofs in favour of preferred theories. The second part of the thesis researches historiographic works of Swedish diplomat Petrus Petreius (early 17th century) and thus contributes to the polemic about who was the first normanist. The analysis shows that Petreius was a skillful compiler, but is not to be considered the first normanist. His works don't include any ideological links between Swedish politics towards Russia and Gothicism either. The third part of the thesis examines history and semantics of three Old East Slavic terms ябедник (yabednik), тиун (tiun) аnd гридь (gridʼ) and their derivatives. The author describes their occurence in historical sources and development in both morphology and semantics up to the present day and makes...

Veles: Slavic deity in comparative perspective
Šebetovská, Michaela ; Lemeškin, Ilja (advisor) ; Kozák, Jan (referee)
VELES SLAVIC DEITY IN COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE Bc. Michaela Šebetovská ABSTRACT The thesis deals with Slavic god Veles. The emphasis is put on primary textual sources about him. With regard to their fragmentary nature, there is a need to make use of comparative material. Informations about other Indo-European gods and beings from Slavic folklore similar to Veles are used as well. The purpose is not only to understand isolated functions, but also connections between them. This seems as the best way how to gain the idea of the whole character of Veles as the Slavs before Christianity could see it.
