Infidel?
Krnáčová, Andrea ; Fajnor, Richard (referee) ; Gabriel, Michal (advisor)
In my bachelor's thesis, I am based on my own memories of my childhood and adolescence, which I spent in the community of Jehovah's Witnesses. I liken individual memories to pieces of concrete furniture from the Kingdom Hall, which I regularly visited. I decided to process this topic using a hanging installation made entirely of polystyrene.

Rooms
Zdvořáček, Tomáš ; Vaněk, Vojtěch (referee) ; Gabriel, Michal (advisor)
As part of my diploma thesis, I deal with the topic of memory and its "revival". I focus on memories related to specific places where I lived, that I visited and which left a strong impression on my mind. I try to reconstruct these places using modern 3D technologies and convert them into virtual reality so that they can be "visited" again. I have created a way to "materialize" important places for us in virtual reality, walk through them and thus experience the memory associated with such places once again. In addition, the memory is shared - even those who were not there will be able to see a specific place. I believe this approach brings a new way to preserve and share memories.

Memory loop
Kralovič, Ľubomír ; Hlavina, Tomáš (referee) ; Gabriel, Michal (advisor)
The subject of the textual part of the thesis is the mental image of home. The task of this work is to introduce the reader, viewer to the issues of the thesis project, as well as to specify and summarize the ideas gathered throughout the entire study. Given that this work is the result of artistic creation, which is just consolidating its content, we cannot expect a professional interpretation of what a mental image is. What we can expect is a description of a personal experience with this image. We will think about the reason why we turn to memory. However, we will not only focus on the cause, but we will also search for the meaning and significance, and finally, we will analyze that it has to do with observation. In the practical part, an attempt is made to embody this mental image, which is inherently difficult to grasp.

Radio portrait of an (un)ordinary person Marie Burešová
Kroa, Martina ; Gulda, Jana (advisor) ; Němcová Tejkalová, Alice (referee)
The main part of this practical bachelor thesis is a radio portrait. In the practical part, I portray the life of an (un)ordinary person, Marie Burešová, into a radio documentary lasting 45 minutes. The eighty-year-old contemporary witness born to a Czech-German family was fundamentally influenced by the collectivization of agriculture in the 1950s, and her life was determined by her decision to take over the family farm, which she made at the age of eighteen. The document alternates the statements of the respondent with the inputs of the author or questions and remarks made during the recording. The process of collecting not only the audio material could be compared to recording the life of a contemporary witness. The author recorded their conversations, her memories and opinions, in the village of Buková in Western Bohemia, where Marie Burešová spent her whole life. In the theoretical part the author defines individual journalistic and documentary and specifically radio genres, but also methods. Compares the portrait and medallion and also brings different approaches of various journalists to the genre interview as not only the basic method of journalistic work. Above all, she focuses on the portrait interview due to the nature of the practical part but also talks about programs and projects that...

Representation of the sixties of 20th century in literary autobiography
Procházková, Lucie ; Kubíček, Tomáš (advisor) ; Mocná, Dagmar (referee)
This work is an attempt to gain a deeper understanding of the 1960s through an in-depth analysis of selected literary autobiographies. The first section is devoted to the theoretical foundation for exploring the chosen four texts of autobiographical literature. It is based on the analysis and subsequent comparison diaries of Ivan Diviš and Pavel Juráček and the memory of Vaclav Černý and Ota Filip. Additionally, this paper examines how these writers created an image of the 1960s and early 1970s.mFurther exploration includes narrative elements, for example, by what means texts are constructed, character space time, composition, and relationship to the audience. Moreover, the meaning of writing autobiographical literature, specifically the selected works, will be explored. Lastly, these major themes set the stage for the comprehensive analysis of the authors' works, revealing the creative design, history, society and culture of their time.

Use of Autobiographical Motifs in Works of Edgar Dutka, Eliška Vlasáková and Antonín Bajaja
Pokorná, Jitka ; Janoušek, Pavel (advisor) ; Hrabáková, Jaroslava (referee)
The work confronts prosaic pieces with noticeable autobiographical features. It deals namely with works of Edgar Dutka, Eliška Vlasáková and Antonín Bajaja. It was not a coincidence to choose right these three Czech authors. They have quite a few features in common. They all belong to the same generation. They are born in the 40's of the 20th century, so they have spent an essential part of their lives (childhood, adolescence and substantial part of their working age) in the second half of the 20th century - in the time of political convulsions and social changes. A childhood spent during this period has become their common literary theme. They all make their memories a literary piece. Each of them does it in a different way and with a different amount of accuracy. Their inspiration comes from their real life, from their memories. The next common feature of these three authors is that they all wrote some of their texts without a vision to make them public. They wrote them for themselves. Book editions were carried out after the year 2000. Last but not least mutual fact is that all of these three authors have been nominated for a prestigious literary price. Edgar Dutka's works show the interdigitation of fictional worlds and also the diffusion of these worlds in the real life of the author. Eliška...

The Eternal Boyhood of Jiří Karásek ze Lvovic
Kolařík, Karel ; Vojtěch, Daniel (advisor) ; Lishaugen, Roar (referee) ; Merhaut, Luboš (referee)
The thesis attempts to describe the life and work of Jiří Karásek ze Lvovic through an analysis of his lifestyle, i.e. the way in which he organized, embellished and individualized his life. Karásek sought to shape his existence as an artwork, in accordance with the inspirational concepts of the contemporary and antecedent thinkers and artists (e.g. Oscar Wilde, Walter Pater and Maurice Maeterlinck). He accented its integrity and orientation towards beauty. In accord with his aesthetic vision (and his literary work) Karásek conditioned beauty with sadness and pain and attempted to emphasize melancholic beauty, unity in disunion. For that purpose he would accentuate particularly the disintegrative, critical elements, evoking the impression of unsuccessful, self-destructive endeavor to reach life's high ideal. This corresponded with his tragic concept of the artist immolating himself for his Art. I approach Karásek's lifestyle through the use of the terms youth and (eternal) boyhood, which Karásek himself employed as symbols of mournfully beautiful existence in his literary work. I define a youth - in accordance with the romantic and symbolist interpretation - as a person at odds with reality (contemporary truths, customs and rules), a solitary, unique being, trying to construct a new world - only...
