The Architecture of the Virtual
Halinár, Matej ; ArtD, Vít Halada, (referee) ; Kristek,, Jan (advisor)
Architecture Jail Escape It is a specific device for futuroptimist people based on the philosophy of posthumanism and transhumanism, a version of their own faith in endless life on the net. It is a belief in the possibility of technological transformation of humanity that will allow us to overcome our physical and biological limits. Clause 2.0 is architecture for pioneers - the protagonist of this transformation - enabling the longest and most complete stay in virtual reality. This avant-garde is anxious 2.0. Escapist personalities of digital age soldiers are looking for a haven and their own version of the world in the cyberspace. They create a vision of paradise and colonize (cyber) space without the political consequences of the finiteness of the physical world and the exhaustion of natural resources. They live on the frontier of the being, and they want to unburden themselves and merge with the world they understand more. They fight with their own brain and body that cannot break away from the world. The endlessness of the virtual space has the limits of body and senses. Long-term stay in a cyberspace is a loss of sense of time and space. This monastic life in clause 2.0 is able to keep them in shape, by observing the ritual, the physical performance of walking that they must undergo so that they can exist every day in their version of the digital monastery. These versions are infinite, and they can be ritually traced among them. Clause geometry isolates them from one another. The clause is a monastic concept that allows the people to live hermetically, as well as the physical world. The gateway to the virtual space is a "zero architecture" - a room, a cell, a cube on a 4x4 meter plan, rid of any visual architectural site. It provides only a flat floor as the reflection point for an endless virtual world and four walls and a ceiling with a corresponding thickness for a sufficient separation from the outside world. The world of infinite freedom opens behind this "zero architecture". It seems that not through "architectural innovation and political subversion" a modern architect's dream of architecture will be realized as machines for the liberation of man but through the abandonment of physical architecture as such. The prospect of "zero architecture" opens up a space where the new architecture will no longer be "luxuries and good homes, not the architecture of separation and imprisonment, but it will ultimately be the architecture of freedom.

The novels of disillusion and maturing
Kotšmídová, Alena ; Mravcová, Marie (advisor) ; Heczková, Libuše (referee)
This bachelor degree thesis deals with various forms of disillusion and maturing in novels "Santa Lucia", "Ivův román" and "Stříbrný vítr". All three books are considered to be novels of disillusion and maturation. On example of main characters, the thesis shows the impulses leading to constitution of illusion, the reason for disillusion formation, the course of disillusion formation and the results of disillusion itself. Although all three novels could be classified as novels of disillusion and maturation, they differ from traditional form of storyline. There is also a dissimilarity among their main characters and composition. Apart from interpretations of disillusion of the characters, the thesis also contains comparative chapters, in which the parallels and differences between characters are drawn. At the same time, comparation enables us to point out the change in thinking, which has taken place between the end of nineteenth and the beginning of twentieth century. This change is noticeable in different way of solving similar problems and it determines the difference between two generations of the Czech moderna. key words: the novel of disillusion, illusion, disillusion, emotions, imagination

The role of places of indeterminacy in the proces of reading the work of art
Kadlčíková, Radka ; Kubalík, Štěpán (advisor) ; Ševčík, Miloš (referee)
The work is focussing on two aesthetic theories, which primarily deal with the reception of literary work of art. Thesis discusses about the phenomenological aesthetics of Roman Ingarden and reception aesthetics of Wolfgang Iser. Research is conducted to clarify the notion of indeterminacy places in a literary text and its function in it. Both authors explain this concept by their own approach to the reception of literary work of art. The method of work is defined by the description of these two presented theories, and by the end of the thesis, both approaches are compared. The aim of the thesis is to characterize both theories and define the concept of indeterminacy places within them. The aim is also to describe the moments in which Wolfgang Iser theories are inspired by Roman Ingarden and also the place where their theories do not agree and Iser revises it.
