Semiotic analysis of comics in contemporary Czech social magazines in the years 2000-2015
 Dorňáková, Anna ; Průchová, Andrea (advisor) ; Šoltys, Otakar (referee)
This thesis deals with comics in the Czech news and cultural magazines after the year 2000. A new generation of comic creators emerged after the year 2000, so called Generation zero. These new creators are different from the older authors - especially from authors of Generation 89 - in many aspects. Using a semiotic analysis this thesis focuses on comics in contemporary periodicals: it attempts to uncover how various comics exist in news magazines (which are intended for a broad scale audience) and to what extent these comics match with the profile of the magazine. Additionally, in order to see a potential difference in results, cultural periodicals were also thoroughly analyzed. Included in the analyzed material are news magazines such as Reflex and Respekt and cultural periodicals like Art+Antiques and A2. In addition, it focuses on theoretical discussions regarding a proper definition of the word comic and on the relationship between linguistic and visual levels of comics because this relationship is essential in this form. Finally, the means of visual language in comics and the history of the Czech comics are discussed in the theoretical section as well.

The photographic work of Markéta Luskačová
 Dorňáková, Anna ; Láb, Filip (advisor) ; Teplá, Jana (referee)
This bachelor's thesis focuses on the photographic work which the documentarian Markéta Luskačová has created since the year 1964 up to the present. The work briefly summarizes the evolution of photojournalism after the so-called 1948 Victorious February and also covers the role of women in the profession of photojournalism. The thesis also discusses the photographic document, particularly sociological document, as this designation easily summarizes the work of the author. I outline the life of Markéta Luskačová and then I analyse her main photographic cycles in the second part of the work. Pilgrimages and children belong to the most important topics of Luskačová's work. I use the method of visual analysis which Gillan Rose has called The Good Eye. The method observes technical elements of pictures, for example a tonal contrast or a framing. I supplement The Good Eye method with the semiological analysis which interprets the meaning of visual elements. The important source of information is - besides reference works - the documentarian Markéta Luskačová herself. I analyse not only her work but also her life in interviews with the photographer. The whole text of interviews is to be found in appendixes of the work.
