Verbal padding in spoken language on the Czech media scene exemplified by reporters of the Czech television and the Czech radio
Švejkovský, Jakub ; Šoltys, Otakar (advisor) ; Němcová Tejkalová, Alice (referee)
Speaking is an immensely complex area of human communication. Speakers whose speech is fluent, without hesitation, pauses and any other shortcomings, have been and are still admired most of all speakers. Most people are encouraged by the effects of fillers and performance additions. However, the two means that fill the language to be more coherent are, of course, considered to be significant language flaws. Still, the oral speech is inherent to us. The author of the bachelor thesis used it to prove that the fillers and performance additions are not spoken only by ordinary people, but also by those for who the language is living. Since neither oral speech by professional speakers is completely coherent in any circumstances, even the best speakers are occasionally forced to use paradoxically language flaws for smoother speech. In order to confirm this theory, the author chose a media scene environment where he analyzed the speeches of Czech TV and Czech Radio editors.

Analysis of the speech profile of David Rath presented by Czech audiovisual media
Švejkovský, Jakub ; Just, Petr (advisor) ; Klabíková Rábová, Tereza (referee)
The aim of this diploma thesis is to analyze the rhetorical profile of one of the most prominent Czech rhetors after the Velvet revolution, physician and politician David Rath. In the theoretical part, the author comprehensively processes the history of public speaking based on the ancient but still current rhetorical tradition of ancient Greece and Rome. Furthermore, the work describes all the specifics defining both the interpersonal communication itself, as well as its individual aspects - specifically, verbal, nonverbal and psychological components, along with persuasive and manipulative techniques. The practical part is co-created by two key aspects - the career and political profile of David Rath and the analysis of his speech. The theoretical basis in combination with the knowledge of the life story of the central speaker forms the basis and context for the analysis of Rath's rhetoric. On carefully selected speeches, the author then examines in detail how the observed rhetor can adapt to various situations across the communication spectrum. The researched findings can then be used for further analyses of a similar focus.
