Early modern manuscripts in Czech museums and the possibilities of their utilization in the research of the 17th and 18th century Czech language and literature
Fidlerová, Alena ; Kučera, Karel (advisor) ; Kolár, Jaroslav (referee) ; Pleskalová, Jana (referee)
The thesis consists of two parts of different genre: the second part comprises that portion of the book FIDLEROVÁ, Alena; BEKEŠOVÁ, Martina, et al.: Inventory of the 17th and 18th Century Manuscripts from the Museum Collections in Bohemia (IInd part, volumes 1 and 2, Prague: Nakladatelství Karolinum, 2007), for which the author of the thesis is responsible (approximately 560 pages). It represents a practical example of how to treat and make accessible a great amount of manuscript source material in a way so that it could be successfully exploited by the scientists of different disciplines interested in early modern ages. Simultaneously, it is a part of the source basis for the first part of the thesis (the accompanying essay), which, nevertheless, dwells on the whole of the material encompassed in all the so far published parts of the Inventory. The accompanying essay has several goals: From the informative point of view it summarizes the content of the Inventory, i.e. which types of manuscripts does it comprise (according to the age of the manuscript, the language or languages used and the genre or subject matter) and tries to trace the causes of the findings. From the methodological point of view it discusses the problem, which methods should be chosen not only in the study of the early modern Czech...

Use of aorist, imperfect and perfect in Czech prose in the middle of the 14th century
Zdeňková, Jana ; Dittmann, Robert (advisor) ; Kučera, Karel (referee)
This thesis deals with the use of the aorist and imperfect tenses and the periphrastic preterite in four Old Czech prosaic translated texts dated back to the beginning of the 2nd half of the 14th century. Analyzed texts are the part of the first edition of the Old Czech translation of the Bible (part of the Dresden Bible completed with the text of Proroci rožmberští (Prophets of Rožmberk), the Legend of St. Wenceslaus from The Old Czech Passional, The Apocalypse of Paul and two chapters of the text O svatém Jeronýmovi knihy troje. We deal with the percentual occurence of the verb forms under investigation and with the aspectual characteristics of the verbs of which the investigated forms are constructed. Also their relationship to the Latin pretext is examined. The acquired results are presented in tables and graphs. This thesis also includes an electronic database of the investigated verbal forms.

Verbal Forms Expressing the Past in 14th-Century Czech
Zdeňková, Jana ; Dittmann, Robert (advisor) ; Kučera, Karel (referee) ; Zikánová, Šárka (referee)
Mgr. Jana Zdeňková Slovesné formy pro vyjádření minulosti v češtině 14. století Verbal Forms Expressing the Past in 14th-Century Czech Abstract The topic of the present dissertation is the use of verbal forms for expressing the past in 14th-century Czech. In this period, the Old Czech system of past tenses underwent far- reaching changes: the original Slavic periphrastic perfect was spreading into contexts typical for the past tense, and as a result, the simple past tenses, i.e. the aorist and the imperfect, were gradually disappearing. In the theoretical part of the thesis, we describe the Old Czech verbal forms for expressing the past tense meanings and discuss the ongoing changes not only within Old Czech proper but also in broader typological and areal perspectives. In the analytical part, we present results of a research into the use of past tenses in 14th-century Czech, based on our own collection of nearly four thousand examples from Old Czech texts. In the analysis, we focus on phenomena that testify to the ongoing language change. We deal with the functional distinction between the simple past tenses and the original periphrastic perfect, with specifics of recession of the aorists and imperfects, with distribution of past tenses in relation to the aspect and to certain semantic/functional...

Diachronic comparison of synchronic corpora
Křen, Michal ; Čermák, František (advisor) ; Kučera, Karel (referee) ; Králík, Jan (referee)
The thesis presents a method for diachronic comparison of synchronic corpora that reflect language of very close time periods. Its primary aim is the assessment of possi- bilities and limitations of language change detection based on the synchronic written SYN-series corpora. The approach is corpus-driven, based on a statistical evaluation of differences among normalized average reduced frequencies of lemmata and lexical combinations. There are several variants of the method applied on various subcorpora of corpus SYN and their results examined in detail. Difficulty of the comparison lies in the influence of corpus composition and the interconnection of changes in language with changes in society. As it is not easy to distinguish the signs of diachronic shift from naturally existing synchronic variability, the statistically discovered significance of frequency differences is additionally verified by querying the base corpora. The interpretation of the results is also adjusted by the knowledge of their exact composition. The conclusions are based mainly on the newspapers as a written text type that is most receptive to the changes. The changes can be characterized as a thematic diversion from the original political and economical orientation of the newspapers towards real- life and free-time topics...

Labview Graphs Generation Via Diadem
Kučera, Karel
The aim of this paper is to describe graph generation from labVIEW using DIADEM. The program is divided into two parts, one in LabVIEW and the second as a script in VBS. The resulting solution can create and parameterize the graph purely from the LabVIEW environment without the need to running the script directly. Saved charts can be in vector or bitmap format.

Czech grammatography and cultural reflection of Czech language in the years 1533-1672
Koupil, Ondřej ; Kučera, Karel (advisor) ; Šlosar, Dušan (referee) ; Berger, Tilman (referee)
Čtyři kapitoly, kterými jsme prošli, měly gramatografickou reflexi češtiny v 16. a 17. století představit jednak v kontextu filologického jazykověreflexivniho úsilí, jak se rozvíjelo od starověku, jednak v její vnitřní dynamice. Vycházeli jsme z primárních textů samých a snažili jsme se syntetizovat poznatky dosavadního bádání, trvajícího v různé intenzitě zhruba od 60. let 19. století. Takové inventis addere, jak o něm mluví poslední motto, nebylo díky píli předchůdkyň a předchůdců tak obtížné. Na konci práce, post jinem, vidíme, že mnohé detaily musely být při pokusu o úhrnný obraz opomenuty, a že výsledkem práce je tedy spíše jakýsi vstupní přehled, který může posloužit jako východisko dalšímu bádání o gramatikách češtiny ajejich vydávání. Dluh zůstává hlavně ve zkoumání vztahů jednotlivých gramatik mezi sebou.
