The Reception of Egon Erwin Kisch in the GDR and Czechoslovakia in the 1950s and 1960s
Wybitulová, Berenika ; Zbytovský, Štěpán (advisor) ; Zelená, Alena (referee)
Egon Erwin Kisch was not only a well-known journalist and writer, but he also profiled himself as a communist. This bachelor thesis explores what the reception of his works looked like in Czechoslovakia and the GDR in the 1950s and 1960s, and how the reception in these two socialist states differed from each other. With regard to the cultural and political historical developments in the 1950s and 1960s, paratexts such as prefaces and afterwords of editions of Kisch's works, newspaper articles and newspaper references of Kisch, as well as research on Kisch and his texts are thus analyzed. Through this analysis, this thesis shows that the political situation in Czechoslovakia and the GDR significantly influenced Kisch's reception. While Kisch was celebrated in both countries in the 1950s as the ideal socialist author, in the 1960s in Czechoslovakia such perceptions changed and the previous reception of Kisch was criticized. In comparison, interest in Kisch declined in the GDR in the 1960s. This thesis thus highlights the nuances in the cultural politics of the two socialist states and demonstrates how political situations are reflected in the reception of individual authors and their works.

Baroňová, Martina ; Kolářová Veverková, Martina (advisor) ; Malvotová, Pavla (referee)
This bachelor's thesis evaluates the lifestyle changes of young adults caused by the covid-19 pandemic. The aim of the thesis is to understand how the change in lifestyle associated with the pandemic was experienced and evaluated by two groups of young people - students and workers - in the Czech Republic and what permanent changes it brought to their lifestyle. From a theoretical point of view, the work is based on Pierre Bourdieu's concept of habitus. It mainly focuses on two areas of lifestyle - healthy lifestyle and free time. As one of the very significant problems of a healthy lifestyle, the sedentary lifestyle that the pandemic has promoted is considered. The main core of this work is semi-structured in-depth interviews with seven communication partners. Interviews with communication partners showed that almost half of them encountered a major impact on their life path during the pandemic, in the form of, for example, loss of housing or employment. As a result of the pandemic restrictions, they began to prefer home food more and to limit eating at fast food restaurants. Students were more affected by social isolation and a sedentary lifestyle than working individuals. The restriction of outdoor sports fields has caused a change in physical activities for some young adults, with young people...
