Narrative aspects of comics
Kořínek, Pavel ; Bílek, Petr (advisor) ; Jareš, Michal (referee)
The thesis entit1ed "Narrative aspects of comics" intends to apply a theoretical background of the dassic narratology to the visual/verbal medium of comics, using the remarks of the so-called "transmedial narratology". Following a short overview of the most important studies focused on comics narration, the three levels of comics narrative are established, Le. levels of "segment", "story" and "world". These levels are thereafter dosely examined. In addition to the common narrative aspects (e.g. space/spatiality, time/temporality, narrative speech, narrator, focalization and narrative events - in this case "sequences"), the thesis a1so pays attention to the typology / genre theory of comics as well as to the medium-symptomatic phenomenon of seriality, proposing the term of "shared fictious world". There are also short excursions devoted to other narration-shaping features.

Differences in comunication with father with different degree dependences on care other persons in Home for seniors in Milevsko
JAROŠOVÁ, Jana
An importance of the communication with seniors is often neglected. I chose this topic for my bachelor thesis to draw an attention to its importance. The communication is one of the most important life necessities. By communicating we become a part of a society. An interpersonal communication is present at each meeting of two or more people. It is impossible to get by it and especially helping professions should have it in mind. It is inconceivable that the care could take place without any communication. Taking care of a user, the nursing staff cannot do with common communication ways they use every day. That is why it is necessary for them to learn how to communicate professionally. By talking with a senior, we can inform him/her about just ongoing activities, but we can also obtain information, encourage and motivate him/her etc. The quality of the provided care does not manifest itself only by using the latest technologies and materials, but also by the ability, how the staff can communicate with users. The ability of the nursing staff to make a contact, to hold a conversation in a qualified way and to gain a confidence is almost a rarity in present hectic times. The communication is an important part of the life for all of us, it accompanies us already from the birth and especially the seniors need to have a possibility to speak with somebody, to tell him about his/her feelings. The bachelor thesis has been focused on the issues of the communication with seniors. The aim of the thesis was to find out whether there are differences in the communication with seniors with various degrees of dependences on another person´s care. The theoretical part defines concepts as a communication and its types ? verbal, nonverbal and paralinguistic, an old age and a senior, seniors´ home and specifics of the communication with the senior. The practical part deals with a research survey. The research sample consisted of the staff and seniors from the Seniors´ Home Milevsko. The data collection technique was an observation and interviews. Everything was carried out with an approval of the organization management. Interviews were conducted independently and with different employees. The observation was carried out secretly at chosen seniors. In the practical part there are recorded important information from the interviews with the staff and the findings from the observation. The most significant answers to the questions are indicated in an authentic wording and highlighted in italics. Results of the research in the bachelor thesis inform about differences in the communication with the seniors. It was found out that it comes to an infantilization of seniors; the used method of the communication is similar to conversations with small children. The staff talks about the senior as about the third person during a care of a badly speaking user, they do not pay a necessary attention to harmonizing of their verbal and nonverbal expressions. It often leads to a stigmatization of the users ? they classify seniors into certain groups. The bachelor thesis can be used for improving the communication between the staff and users of the seniors´ home.

Long-Ago Stories in Children?s Literature (from Ivan Olbracht to Renáta Fučíková)
Netolická, Tereza ; Stejskalová, Anna (referee) ; Pechová, Drahoslava (advisor)
V první části své diplomové práce jsem se pokusila postihnout literární, náboženský a filosofický význam bible - "knihy knih". Mým dalším úkolem bylo zjistit, kdy se biblické motivy staly součástí literatury pro děti a mládež a zařadit tato díla do kontextu celonárodní literatury. S tím souvisí i vymezení pojmu adaptace - úprava textu. Do této části jsem ještě zahrnula charakteristiku zakládajících českých beletristických adaptací bible pro děti a mládež, které těsně před zahájením 2. světové války v roce 1939 vydalo nakladatelství Melantrich v Praze.

The Work of Libuše Moníková in the Context of Contemporary Czech Literature
Zikmundová, Martina ; Čeňková, Jana (advisor) ; Piorecký, Karel (referee)
Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit Libuše Moníková, ihrem Werk und dessen Wahrnehmung in dem sowohl deutschen, als auch tschechischen Kontext. Während sie in Deutschland als anerkannte und auch bekannte Schriftstellerin angesehen wird, muss man lediglich konstatieren, dass sie in ihrer Heimat solche Anerkennung immer noch nicht gefunden hat. Das hängt auch damit zusammen, dass es lange fast keine Übersetzungen ihrer Werke ins Tschechische gegeben hat. Nach Deutschland ist sie nach dem Jahre 1968 noch als völlig unbekannte Frau gegangen; dort hat sie zuerst auf tschechisch mit ihrer literarischen Tätigkeit begonnen, bald ist sie jedoch auf das deutsche, das ihr grö3ere Distanz zu den behandelten Themen anbietete, übergangen. Sie ist Autorin von mehreren von der Kritik hoch geschätzten Prosa-Werken, von denen vor allem Die Fassade hervorragt (in zwölf Sprachen übersetzt). Daneben hat sie auch eine Menge von Essays geschrieben, die mit ihrer Prosa-Tätigkeit eng zusammenhängen. Ihr Prosa-Werk hat einen starken autobiographischen Charakter. Die Autorin beschäftigt sich fast ausschlie31ich mit ihrer Heimat: eine wichtige Rolle spielt ihre Geschichte (vor allem Jahre 1938 und 1968 als Jahre des "Verrats"), eine typische Figur ist ein tschechischer Exulant und Intelektueller, der durch die Welt zieht und keine Ruhe...

On a historical and linquistic background I follow the most important moments ofhis work. Following the ideas of a formal literary critisism starting in the early years of Czechoslovakia coming to the controversary formulations of recent critics. I also try to formulate the rules of judging Vamoš' s expressionist style and language in close relation to his specific situation in the "literary playground". The very important role in understanding the specific features of his "asimilated jewish mentality" is part of historical section of my work. The relating unit of whole work is tragic life story of doctor Gejza Vámoš. My work is devided in four main parts.

Maternity and childlessness in women's magazines
Pomahačová, Jana ; Duffková, Jana (advisor) ; Buriánek, Jiří (referee)
V úvodu i dále v textu zmiňuji, že východiskem mé práce, jedním ze základních kritérií pro vytvoření výběrového souboru je kontext hodnotových orientací, a právě z tohoto důvodu uvádím teoretickou část své práce krátkým představením pojmů, jež mají zásadní postavení v sociologické teorii i empirickém výzkumu. Pojem hodnoty má svůj původ v oblasti ekonomie resp. filosofie; jakožto k základní sociologické kategorii se k hodnotě již od jejího vzniku váže mnoho různých významů a interpretací. "Podle Clyda K. M. Kluckhohna ( 1951) je hodnota explicitní nebo implicitní pojetí o tom, co je žádoucí, pojetí příznačné pro jednotlivce i pro skupinu, ovlivňující výběr přístupných prostředků a cílů jednání." (Velký sociologický slovník 1996: 375) Také T. Parsons, jehož koncepce významně ovlivňovaly sociologii hodnot zejména v padesátých a šedesátých letech, zdůrazňuje normativní aspekty hodnocení a chápe hodnoty jako obecné pojetí o žádoucím nikoli jako předměty chtění. 1 Na tomto místě je však třeba hodnoty odlišit od sociálních norem- verbalizovaných, závazných pravidel, které vyžadují respekt bez ohledu na to, co si o nich člověk myslí; hodnoty nemůžou být založeny na cizí vůli. Jsou základem kultury, představují vazbu sociálního systému se systémem osobnosti. Prostřednictvím hodnot je jedinci umožněno ztotožnit se s...

Petr Eben - Cantica Comeniana I - Analysis of Arrangement of ten songs from Amsterodam songbook
Dittrichová, Johana ; Nedělka, Michal (referee) ; Bělohlávková, Petra (advisor)
This thesi s is devoted to a complex analysis of the songs from Cantica Comeniana by Petr Eben. The songs are modem arrangements of Komensky's songs printed in Amsterodam Hymnbook. Analyses of Eben's arrangements of the songs were compared to their originals. When arranging the songs, Eben minded the original number of their verses and only in three songs is the number of verses reduced. The same tendency - to be as close to original as possible - can be observed in cases of modus and key. Melody varies just once, in the fifth song, which is definitely because the modus shift. Metre and rhythm of Eben's arrangements are the same as in Komensky's works with the exception of a few songs where changing the rhythm or metre is necessary to assimilate with lyrics more accurately (the fifth song can well serve as an example of changing metre and rhythm - both - for music to work better together with the lyrics. Second area the thesis touches are the scores of Eben's arrangements. Most of the songs are addapted for a three-part choir. Songs one three and ten are composed for a three-part choir a capella, songs two, seven and nine require a recorder and the first adaptation of the fifth song, for three-part choir as well, is composed for a baritone instrument. Songs four, five (its third adaptation) and six are...
