Joe Sacco and Guy Delisle : views on comics journalism
Bárta, Jan ; Sládková, Hana (referee) ; Kruml, Milan (advisor)
Bachelor thesis "Joe Sacco and Guy Delisle: Two Views on Comics Journalism" deals with the possibility of existence of comics journalism, taking examples from work of two contemporary cartoonists, non-fiction comics authors Joe Sacco and Guy Delisle. To begin with, I'm trying to define comics phenomena and introduce its expressive devices and comics-specific techniques. Afterwards follows a short summary of history of comics, with a particular focus on history of American and Franco-Belgian comics. Then I would in short introduce the life and work of our two cartoonists together with a brief comparison of their visual style. The main part of the thesis is nevertheless the analysis and comparison of Joe Sacco's investigative reporting comic Footnotes in Gaza and Guy Delisle's comic travelogue Burma Chronicles. In the final part I'm due to answer the question of whether the comics journalism is possible and what could be its contribution.

Portrayal of war prisoners in american media after the election of Barack Obama
Jelínek, Jiří ; Kruml, Milan (advisor) ; Jirák, Jan (referee)
The US attitude towards the prisoners of war, more accurately its media portrayal, is the main theme of this bachelor thesis. The main goal of this thesis is to find out whether this attitude in real situation corresponds with the similar attitude in the US movies and series. The real one has been changing significantly since 2001 depending on the Afghanistan and Iraq situation, and also on the decisions of the Supreme Court of the US and the people opinion. This thesis is based on official documents of the US administration as well as on several movies (24, Homeland, Zero Dark Thirty and Ghosts of Abu Ghraib). The essential thesis whether the real attitude was reflected in the movies was generally confirmed, however the differences between pictures were considerable, therefore the overall generalization is not possible.

Vliv hnojení a organizace porostu kukuřice (šířky řádků) na výnos silážní kukuřice
KRUML, Martin
The aim of my thesis was to compare the yields of silage maize (Zea mays L.) at different width lines at fertilization under the heel and at different calibration individuals per ha. For this comparison, I founded two attempts. The first trial, which concerned a drill spacing and fertilization under the heel, I founded the company in ZKS AGRO Zahořany. When you first try, I used four experimental plots, each plot'm sends corn in four ways. Every site I sent to different widths and lines on the 37.5 cm, 45 cm and 75 cm, and the fourth land, I also sent to 75 cm but no fertilizer under the heel. Then I watched all the land, and eventually I compared all the land maize yield in green stuff. For the three parcels I compared the yield depending on the width of rows and rows for seeding with a width of 75 cm, we compared the yield depending on the fertilizer under the heel. The second attempt, which concerned the size of the seed rate, I founded the company in ZOD Mrákov. In this experiment, I sewed maize on one plot. On this land, I imposed a 6 plots. On these plots, I used 3 sizes calibration and 85000, 95000 and 105000 individuals / ha. I also 3 plots, these calibrating, sent to the line width of 37.5 cm, and the remaining three plots on the line width of 75 cm. These plots I watched the whole vegetation period and finally I compared the yields from each plot of land in the green stuff.
