Záhorská, Irena ; Hůla, Zdenek (advisor) ; Raudenský, Martin (referee)
The thesis deals with the phenomenon of play and games as a basic principle of human culture. Play has been present in all the fields of human culture and has been a crucial element for creating its dynamism ever since. The theoretical part stems from the works which are concerned with the theories of play. The most significant are Homo Ludens by Johan Huizinga, Oase des Glücks (The Oasis of Happiness), Spiel als Weltsymbol (Play as a Symbol of World) by Eugen Fink and Les jeux et les hommes (Man, Play and Games) by Roger Calloise who brings new viewpoint to this topic. The key element of this work is the manifestation of the topic in the fine arts. The thesis specifies its focus on the Czech fine Arts scene of the 20th and 21st century. The didactic part is focused on the possibility of the use of play and games in the lessons of Arts. It poses open-ended questions how to use play and games not only as a means of motivation but also as a tool of creation.

Charvát, Ondřej ; Stibral, Karel (advisor) ; Dadejík, Ondřej (referee)
3 ABSTRACT Humankind in its whole being is reflecting an environment by culture and visual art. Different cultural periods value nature and environment differently, what have a strong impact on nature management - some culture periods have a strong feeling for protecting nature for its own value while others see nature just as a source of materials or energy. This relationship is possible to find in art artifacts made during particular culture period. The communistic idea was ruling for almost half of the twentieth century in former Czechoslovakia. And its point of view has strong negative impact on state of nature and environment. As an official style of art socialist realism was approved at the same time. Its main goal was portraying a new communistic world, new communistic society and new communistic man. Aim of this work is to find out how the socialistic realism displays nature and landscape topic in art pieces. In core of this work stays the assumption, that socialistic realism has no value for nature itself, on the contrary it appreciates only it's rebuilding for easier exploitation. Findings are based on study of theoretical art texts and art-pieces from the period 1945 - 1958. Keywords: nature, landscape, aesthetic, art, socialist realism, landscape painting

Čížková, Veronika ; Bednařík, Petr (advisor) ; Vedral, Jan (referee)
The bachelor thesis "The Czech Counterculture and Its Media Representation in the Period of 1983-1987" analyses the media coverage of that part of culture of the communist regime which was set aside from the propagandized main stream - either systematically by the regime or purposely by its performers. In the first part of the thesis, besides the outlining of the era of normalization and its media, there is a description of this type of culture, both in its illegal way (so called underground culture) and its official way of providing an alternative to the main stream. In the second part, the thesis is focused on following how the media reflected the alternative culture, using the chosen periodicals as an exemplar. The method of the research uses qualitative analysis and the research material consists of periodicals Rudé právo, Tribuna, Mladá fronta, Melodie a Tvorba in the period of the years 1983-1987. The thesis concentrates mainly on music, especially on the special phenomenon, which can be called the "New wave disruption effort." Other concerned issues and revealed facts in this thesis are definite differences about the way of media coverage of alternative culture between the single chosen periodicals, and also the transformation of the way of representation during the studied period.
