The Relationship of Hedonism and Humanism
Jerman, Ondřej ; Jirsa, Jakub (advisor) ; Švec, Ondřej (referee)
The diploma thesis discusses the relationship between humanism and hedonism. However, its main objective is not to explain the terms in their summarized historical relatedness but to point out their internal coherence. The fundamental issue the thesis deals with is the fact that sentient beings suffer from sorrow. Enumerating the reasons why it is important to search for a solution would be a waste of our reader's time. It is necessary to understand that we don't expect empirical science to solve the problem since - despite the enthusiasm significant for this modern period - has not introduced any relief from sorrow. Here comes the opportunity for philosophy and, eventually, ethics. In its first part the thesis maps out the context of humanism and hedonism, studies their apparent as well as hidden nature, and lays the conceivable foundations of humanistic hedonism. The following section suggests a set of particular steps. Adhering to these instructions makes it possible to experience delight and to eliminate sorrow.

From cabarets to concert scene (between 19 and 20 centuries)
Kotalová, Anna ; Kalfiřtová, Eva (advisor) ; Müllerová, Eva (referee)
The aim of this thesis was to describe the history of five cabarets located in Pairs district called Montmartre - Chat Noir, Lapin Agile, Moulin Rouge, Folies-Bergére, Bobino and Olympia. The first plan was to line up cabarets chronologically and be mostly focused on their development changes - Folies-Bergere (1869) - Bobino (1973) - Chat Noir (1881( - Moulin Rouge (1889) - Olympia (1893) - Lapin Agile (1903). On the other hand, during the research, we found out that it would be better to line up cabarets due to different criterions - if they are still running, if they keep their typical cabaret atmosphere or changed to the music-hall, and if they have enriched French culture. Family atmosphere was typical for the first French cabarets. They were places where people could meet each other, drink and eat. During the time cabaret became popular place for the rich public and tourists. The big inspiration for cabarets were modern music-halls from England, however, visitors were still able to drink, eat or just meet their friends there. Typical for the program was chanson which is one of the main functions of cabarets during these days as well. In the district Montmartre, there used to be 5 cabarets - whose we examined in this thesis. On the contrary, nowadays everything is different. Cabaret Chat Noir...

Slang is entertaining – and is becoming an effective means of advertising
Hoffmannová, Jana
This paper demonstrates the current permeation of entertainment and the entertainment function into nearly all communicative spheres (cf. infotainment, politainment, edutainment and others) and its role in the intensive mixing of styles. It documents this primarily through specialized slang, which is becoming an attractive means for institutions to advertise to the broader public and is a combination of the entertainment function and the persuasive one. The examples are selected mainly from the publication Slang pražských dopraváků (The Slang of Prague Transport Employees), which serves to promote the city public transportation, and from the Česko-filharmonický a filharmonicko-český slovník (Czech-Philharmonic and Philharmonic-Czech Dictionary), the purpose of which is to promote classical music concerts. The conclusion then contains a brief consideration of how, in recent years, visualization and multimodality (e.g. interesting artistic collages), along with wordplay and language humor, are utilized in the promotion of concerts (the Prague Spring music festival).
