Determination of genetic differences of biological DNA sequences
Sliž, Ladislav ; Škutková, Helena (referee) ; Provazník, Ivo (advisor)
Work on determining the genetic diversity of biological signal aligning DNA sequences, will address a brief description of the composition of DNA. Following is basic information on the bioinformatics analysis. Then the work will describe the possibility of aligning DNA sequences. Work will focus primarily on global Needleman-Wunsch algorithm and local Smit - Watermanovův algorithm. Furthermore, this work will focus on aligning DNA sequences using methods CGR and FCGR. At the end of the work will describe the practical application of identifying genetic differences by aligning the sequences.
Cronin, Michael: Translation and identity. Routledge. London;New York (NY). 2006: A Translation and Commentary
Baštová, Kateřina ; Tobrmanová, Šárka (advisor) ; Jettmarová, Zuzana (referee)
This bachelor thesis comprises a translation of a part of a book called Translation and Identity by Michael Cronin, published in 2006 and a commentary on the translation. The commentary includes translation analysis of the original text, examples of translation problems with solutions and typology of translation shifts. The analysis was based on the model of Ch. Nord and the translation method was inspired by translation theory of J. Levý and partly also by the theory of P. Newmark. The translation shifts were based on the theory of A. Popovič. The translated text inquires into the interconnection of the modern and constantly changing society. It looks at the understanding of the concept of cosmopolitanism throughout the history from the point of view of several cosmopolitan theories and it studies the influence the understanding has on people's behaviour. It puts into context concepts of cosmopolitanism, identity and translation and it highlights the role of translation as an irreplaceable "bridge" which mediates relationship of the global world and influences how we see individuals and groups whether it is on the level of ethnic, national or an international society. In relation to this it explores the place of an individual and a group in the complex global society and the differences in...
Guests and Hosts: Tourist Interactions in the Istrian Pension Lucia
Garajová, Jolana ; Halbich, Marek (advisor) ; Kábová, Adriana (referee)
The master's thesis explores the process in which tourist interactions between hosts and guests develop and sheds some light on tourism imaginaries by which these interactions are constructed and produced in an Istrian pension. The ethnography of hosts and guests presented here illustrates how the global and the local are closely intertwined through the process called glocalization (Salazar, 2005) and shows that "the global not only affects, but becomes the local, and vice versa". (Leite, Graburn in Jamal, Robinson ed., 2009: 53) The thesis shows how both the global and the local can take an active part in the process of new meaning-making in the context of tourism. In the pension, there is an ongoing local struggle over tourism imaginaries seeking to redefine the place and people. (Salazar, 2012) The thesis reveals that hosts cannot be viewed as passive victims of their hosts' expectations. They rather can be viewed as active negotiators, negotiating their position in the field of tourism. Key words: globalization, truism, global, local, glocalization, hosts/guests, tourism imaginaries, identity, cosmopolitanism, tourist development Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
Living Close to the Astronauts and 'in the Centre of the Universe': Every-day Life of the 'Panel Housing' Estate Jižní Město in Prague
Cassi Pelikán, Hana ; Uherek, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Bittnerová, Dana (referee) ; Nosková, Jana (referee)
The subject of this thesis is to record the every-day life, local and collective memory, and relationships of individuals - local inhabitants of the 'panel-housing' estate, Jižní Město, in Prague - towards the specific urban and social space in which they live. The thesis is based on interviews, with the long-term inhabitants of Jižní Město, which were structured to record their lived experience in the housing estate during two consecutive periods in recent Czechoslovak history - the so-called normalisation and post-socialism periods. The interviews were used as an empirical counterbalance to architectural/city planning discourse and Czech media, which has interpreted the legacy of 'panel-housing' estates in a negative way, as the socialist form of housing par excellence. The aim of this thesis is to analyse this discourse, which also reflects how Czech society deals with its communist past, and to compare it with the experiences, evaluations and current challenges in the lives of these long- term inhabitants, living in the biggest Czech 'panel-housing' estate with a bad reputation. Key words: panel-housing estates, Jižní Město, housing, local/collective memory, local/urban identity, everyday life, city, so-called normalisation.
Local and National Identity in Historical Monographs on Bohemian, Moravian and Galician Towns (1860-1900)
Ira, Jaroslav ; Klusáková, Luďa (advisor) ; Štaif, Jiří (referee) ; Řezník, Miloš (referee)
The dissertation thesis deals with urban historical monographs that were published in 1860-1900 in Czech, German, and Polish language, and covered towns in Bohemia, Moravia, and Galicia. Adopting a broadly comparative perspective, the study focuses on the social dimension of the books through the lens of local and national identities. It presupposes that the urban histories essentially created local identities but at the same time makes a hypothesis that nationalization of society in the 19th century had significant impact on local urban history. The first chapter shows that the urban historiography in each of the regional-language spheres developed unevenly. One of the reasons was the different significance of towns and urban past in national thoughts. The following chapter analyses urban monographs as books. It poses questions about who wrote urban histories, with what intentions, and for what readership. It reveals that the books had essentially two roles: they served local purposes and at the same time they were integrated in the national programme The two remaining chapters deal with the analysis of historical representations. The fourth chapter compares urban histories with regard to periodization of urban past. It confirms that the national historical frame significantly influenced the ways...
Media scene in region of Kladno in 1990-2000
Vyhnanovský, Ondřej ; Köpplová, Barbara (advisor) ; Lysoňková, Lenka (referee)
During past era, Kladno and its surrounding area was an industrial district. Local development started at the end of the 18th century in connection with the discovery of coal seams. With the establishment of steelworks, massive growth of the entire region began in second half of 19th century. An increase in the population brought the need for an effective means of communication and this in turn resulted in this development of local media. Although local development had started late, Kladno quickly caught up with rest of the country and became really important nationally. During what was called "First Republic," there were many types of media but the most important was the labour-press. It was most evident with the social riots and general strike in 1920. World War II interrupted media publishing and the future situation in Czechoslovakia was not positive. After communist control of the country in 1948, media development stagnated. All officially published titles were leftist. The local media scene also produced some national mass- media that promoted political authorities. Another opportunity for media growth came following the "Velvet Revolution" in November 1989. Small and private publishers launched their own media projects but at the end of 20th century, most of the influential print media were owned by...

Kalouš, Pavel ; Köpplová, Barbara (advisor) ; Šoltys, Otakar (referee)
Diploma thesis "The journalist in regional newspapers as a specific journalistic profession in Ústí region" deals with the working and status differences of regional journalists, whose occupation is believed as a specific kind of journalism. This thesis is mainly concentrated on the area of getting information and working with them, it is also focused on problems and difficulties of regional journalism, the role of journalists, their relationship to the local area and as well their moral level. Last, but not least this thesis brings the sociological profile of regional journalists in Ústí region. On the basis of a research which consists of disinterested observation and a research via questioning in seven newsrooms of Vltava-Labe-Press company newspapers, it shows the picture of margin journalists who have to fight with bad reputation in a long term. One part o this thesis is also a historical divagation to the development of regional press in the Czech Republic in the area of Ústí region and the stormy property changes which happened in the 90's of 20th century as well.
