This bachelor's thesis discusses the facilitation of a child's adaptation in kindergarten. It introduces the child's developmental stages and suggests possible support methods before the child starts kindergarden. It highlights the positive impact of literature on preschool children.

Dune: The Language of Literature and the Language of Film
DUFEK, Matyáš
This bachelor's thesis focuses on Frank Herbert's novel Dune and its film adaptations, conducting a comparative analysis of these works and examining the portrayal of characters, events, time, and space within the context of literary and cinematic narratives. The analytical approach is grounded in the fields of narratology and semiotics in literature and film. The primary aim of the thesis is to explore the general differences between the language of literature and the language of film and to address the question of the possibilities and limitations of their translatability. In this manner, the thesis contributes to a deeper understanding of the relationship between a literary work and its film adaptations and engages in a discussion on the significance of media adaptations for the interpretation of literature.

Cultural identity of migrants in France
Sudová, Hana ; Štětovská, Iva (advisor) ; Slaměník, Ivan (referee)
This master thesis investigates adaptation and cultural identity of migrants living in France. The sample consisted of migrants from Sub-Saharan Africa and French overseas departments who went to France for their studies. The research contains a qualitative and a quantitative part. The qualitative study was realized through semi-structural interwiev, in which partici- pated 19 students in age from 21-33 years. Results indicate that the migrants identify in their country of origin mostly with solidarity and warmth of the people, which contrasts with impersonal relationships of an individualistic french society. In spite of occasional experience with discrimination in France, most of migrants seem to adapt quite well. In France, they appretiate mostly the opportunity to succeed in life, which is given to everybody, something that is far from the case in their country of origin. In the quantitative study, 40 migrants in age from 18-45 years completed a questionnaire survey on internet. Due to a small number of participants the research have rather orientatio- nal character. Results indicated, unexpectedly, that the strenght of ethnic identity diminishes over time, which is in contradiction with several previous studies. Another result reveal that African women show better social and psychological...

Novotná, Valentýna ; Nová, Monika (advisor) ; Bravená, Noemi (referee)
The diploma thesis deals with the topic of adaptation of seniors to residential social services and, as part of a research investigation, examining the influence of activation activities on this process from the point of view of facility staff. Using the active method of the semi-structured process of successful care, the author concludes that active activities largely belong to the client's adaptation to the new institutional environment. The output of the work is then a methodological list designed for the needs of facility workers who implement adaptation groups.

Olfactory adaptations in the deep-sea fishes
Kamrla, Jaroslav ; Musilová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Stopková, Romana (referee)
The goal of this work was to summarize the present knowledge about olfaction in deep-sea fishes. The research on this topic is seldom, however, few interesting studies suggest the importance of olfaction in these inhospitable conditions. After a short introduction of how the olfaction works, individual description of deep-sea adaptations follows. Implications on the importance of a specific sense can be made based on comparisons between individual brain areas responsible for the input of each sense. The importance of individual senses was investigated in mesopelagic and demersal species. Ontogenetic shift in sensory importance is one of the adaptations. Furthermore, sexual dimorphism in the olfactory system. Enlarged olfactory organs in males are most likely responsible for easier localisation of a female. Regarding the olfactory receptor repertoire, a whole genome of a hadal fish from the Mariana trench marked a massive loss of olfactory genes but highlighted their specificity. My own data included in this thesis estimate the number of the olfactory genes in deep-sea fishes for which we lack the high-quality genome. The estimates (albeit with large confidence intervals) suggest rather smaller numbers of genes in most of the species, while there are some species with putatively expanded gene...

Adaptation of 2-year-old children in children's group
Hýblerová, Karolína ; Sotáková, Hana (advisor) ; Presslerová, Pavla (referee)
In my master thesis, I deal with the specific development of two-year-old children. Specifically, physical, cognitive, social and emotional development. The second to third chapters focus on the history of the inclusion of two-year-olds in preschool, experts' opinions on whether it is appropriate for children to enter preschool at the age of two, and what options exist in the country for the inclusion of two-year-olds. The fourth chapter looks at the options available to parents in the Czech Republic when they want to place their two-year-old child in pre-school. The last - fifth chapter deals with adaptation as such. The practical part of the master thesis begins by setting the objectives, which are to analyse the adaptation plan of a particular children's group, to find out how the adaptation period is going for the 11 children from the particular children's group who were involved in the research. Last but not least, the research aims to figure out what could make the adaptation to the children's group easier for two-year- old children and their parents. In order to accomplish my goals, I drew on children's group attendance records, questionnaires from the children's parents, and most importantly, my participant observation. I also address general quality standards as well as the quality...

Between adaptation and homage: Blade Runner as a filmic rendition of Philip K. Dick's novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
Shahinyan, Sona ; Ženíšek, Jakub (advisor) ; Higgins, Bernadette (referee)
This thesis will be concerned with comparing and contrasting the cyberpunk novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? written by Philip K. Dick in 1968 with Ridley Scott's film called Blade Runner. However, most attention will be directed toward the film's original release and final re-release in 2007. The received opinion and editorial claims tend to come into clash when referencing the movie as either an adaptation or an inspiration, and this disagreement was turned into our research question: Did Ridley Scott and his screenwriting team create a periphrastic adaptation of the novel, or can it be more accurately regarded as an inspiration or a variation on a theme? The first part of the thesis will define the parameters by which the research will be evaluated at the end. The second part of this thesis will encapsulate plotlines, themes and events, motifs, and symbols, and it will also dissect each essential character and their portrayal in each medium. Finally, the additional scenes from re-releases of the original film will be analyzed in regard to their relevance to the plot of the novel. The most recent adaptation, Blade Runner 2049, will also be mentioned in regard to its side character, Rick Deckard, and the parallels found in his successor, K. Keywords: Adaptation, Blade Runner, bounty...
