Theology of Jakob Böhm.
Ondráček, Václav ; Wernisch, Martin (advisor) ; Kranát, Jan (referee) ; Nejeschleba, Tomáš (referee)
This works considers the developments of theological thought of Jacob Böhme (c/a 1570-1624) a German thinker - philosopher and mystic, mainly with respect to the basic theological concepts of God and Trinity. Since these are in Böhme's thinking tightly interwoven with theosophical concepts of nature and creation, these had to be taken to account, too. Böhme's theology is portrayed in its step by step changing form, following the sequence of Böhme's published works, starting with Böhme's primeval intuition of a dual God and twofold eternal Nature and the initial concepts of seven Qualities, over the milestones meaning introduction of Böhme's basic concept of Three Principles and his profound depiction of the Primeval God - using the concepts of Will, Unground, Eye and several others, as far as their mystical consequences in Böhme's last works. In Chapter VII, a view is given of Böhme's attitude to another theological topic, i.e. that of salvation and predestination. These theological consideration are viewed on the background of Böhme's life, considering also various possible interrelations, which his teaching might have had to particular contemporary issues of importance and stating the most important people involved in them. As a conclusion it tries to follow the way of Bohmian thought after the death of...

Adults with Specific Learning Disabilities and/or AD(H)D - coping with the handicap
Pospíšilová, Zuzana ; Břečková Chalupová, Eva (referee) ; Kucharská, Anna (advisor)
The bachelor thesis focuses on adults with specific learning disabilities and/or AD(H)D, namely on their coping strategies in adulthood. The thesis is traditionally divided into theoretical and empirical part. The first chapter of the theoretical part explains basic terminology linked with specific learning disabilities and/or AD(H)D, their symptoms, and emotional and social aspects of the deficit in the early age. The next chapter concentrates on adults with specific learning disabilities and/or AD(H)D, especially a negative impact of their difficulties which make work achievements complicated. The final chapter of the theoretical part describes typical emotional reactions which adults with specific learning disabilities and/or AD(H)D suffer from. The aim of the practical part is to describe the process of coping with the handicap of specific learning disabilities and/or AD(H)D. The research uses a qualitative methodology. It first states problems at work and in the course of university study which are connected with specific learning disabilities and/or AD(H)D. Further the attention is paid to negative emotions which adults with specific learning disabilities and/or AD(H)D face in everyday life. A crucial part of the research involves a description of coping strategies of the interviewed adults. A next...

Polemics about the negative and positive freedom in contemporary political philosophy
Smelík, Vít ; Znoj, Milan (advisor) ; Bíba, Jan (referee)
This thesis concentrates on the polemics about negative and positive freedom, which was initiated by Isaiah Berlin who considered this concept as important sign of liberal political theory. The author starts with the analysis of "Two Concepts of Liberty" by Isaiah Berlin, and then complements this analysis with the reflections of three more authors - Gerald MacCallum, Jr., Charles Taylor and Philip Pettit - who either wrote in direct reaction to Berlin's essay, or were indirectly influenced by it. The goal of the thesis is the confrontation of their conclusions with Berlin's original arguments and the demonstration of the author's own understanding of political liberty.

Synthesis and in vitro evaluation of pyridinium type acetylcholinesterase inhibitors.
Kopečková, Anna ; Doležal, Martin (advisor) ; Kopecký, Kamil (referee)
Title: Synthesis and in vitro evaluation of pyridinium type acetylcholinesterase inhibitors Author: Anna Kopečková Nerve agents are extremely toxic substances. As prophylactics against these compounds, reversible acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors are used in the Czech Army. The goal of the thesis was to synthesise new potential inhibitors and evaluate their in vitro inhibition activity. The compounds were designed as asymmetrical bisquaternary molecules. Their structure was derived from isochinoline and 4-benzylpyridine; these two molecules were connected with variable connecting linkages (5-12 carbons). The synthesis involved two steps. Reactions of both steps took place in acetonitrile at 70 řC. Afterwards, the compounds were purified and their identity was confirmed with NMR- analysis, mass spectrometry and elementary analysis. The Ellman's method was used for the inhibitory potential evaluation. Eight compounds were succesfully prepared. All of them showed promising inhibitory potential (IC50 values 10-7 -10-8 mol/l). The stronges inhibitors were compounds bearing heptylenic and decylenic connecting linkage (IC50 0,05 µM). The selecitivity towards AChE decreased with prolonging connecting linkage.

The selected issues of the early middle-ages burial places
Štefan, Ivo ; Klápště, Jan (advisor) ; Ruttkay, Alexander (referee) ; Urbanczyk, Przemyslaw (referee)
I. Introduction. The dissertation paper contains four separate studies dealing with the topíc ofburials in the Early Middle-Ages. The paper's focus is the Czech Early Middle-Ages environment, however, in all studies the author tried to integrate the Czech evolution into the Central Europe context. The contents of particular chapters is the following: II. The change in burial rites in the early middle ages as an issue for archeology and cultural anthropology. The frrst part is aimed at the crucial change which took place in the course ofthe 9th century involving the handling ofthose who died- the cremation is altemated with burials of non-bumt bodies. On the basis of the oldest skeleton graves analysis the author comes to the conclusion that the above mentioned change in the Czech environment happed somewhat later than has been generally considered until now and therefore, its historical context should be re-assessed, as well. Next parts ofthe section try to capture the burial rite change as a cultural phenomenon accompanying in a series ofEuropean areas the initial steps of the integration of traditional "gentile" societies into the structures of the Medieval Europe which was being formed. The aim of the comparison of several better knowable regions was to outline the scope of the variability of causes and...

Justice, Punishment and Guilt from View of Youthful
ERLOVÁ, Pavla
My bachelor thesis is focused on adolescents staying in the educational institute in Hostouň and attending the center of the probation and mediation service in Domažlice. The theoretical part in general describes the view on theology and penology to justice, punishment and guilt. Thereinafter, this thesis involves organizations dealing with juveniles who commit an offence and lists the most common offenses committed by juveniles. There are two research questions in the practical part (1st question: How do Czech adolescents understand conceptions of justice, punishment and guilt?, 2nd question: Why does the understanding of the concepts of justice, punishment and guilt of today´s Czech adolescents differ from the theological-penological definition?) A qualitative research was carried out with 10 adolescents. Answers to the initial research question suggest that, from the penological aspekt, adolescents mostly understand these penological concepts. To the second research question, it should be noted that the most adolescents come from divorced, incomplete or {\clqq}broken`` families. Relationships are impaired by family upbringing, young people cannot find an example of good behaviour in such families. They cannot acknowledge their parents who don´t love them, so they cannot find trust in them and therefore they find shelter at their peers and friends mostly dealing with the same problems.

Integration of the Roma Minority in the Context of an Elementary School with Specialized Sport Classes ZŠ Krupka Teplická
Novák, Petr ; Potměšil, Jaroslav (referee) ; Fialová, Ludmila (advisor)
This M.A. thesis deals with the integration ofthe Roma minority in the context of an elementary school with specialized sport classes. The theoretical part ofthe thesis focuses on the aspects relating to the history ofthe Roma ethnic group in the Czech Republic as well as on the attitudes and relations between the Roma minority and the majority society. It also dosely addresses the issue of integration and the integration processes having taken place until now. Since the research deals with sport as a possible means ofintegration, the theoretical part summarizes the hitherto gained experience with sport as an integration instrument. The practical research was conducted at an elementary school in Krupka in the Ústecký region with a strong represenation ofthe Roma ethnic group. The research work focused on the teachers' reactions to the following three issues: the integration itself(and its significance, hitherto applied efforts and conceptions), the problematic aspects ofthe education and behaviour ofthe Roma children and the involvement ofthe Roma in the school sport activities.

Physical therapy facilities in Down syndrome
ŠULOVÁ, Eva
This bachelor thesis deals with the possibilities of influencing locomotor skills of children with Down syndrome by physiotherapy. In the theoretical part two key phenomena involved in the postural behavior of these persons are mentioned, which are low muscle tone (hypotonia) and laxicita ligament, caused by the presence of abnormal collagen type VI. These two genetically conditioned phenomena, according to the cited literature, are associated with impaired muscle cocontraction, with inadequate equilibrium reactions and faulty proprioceptive feedback for posture and locomotion. The research group consisted of three children of preschool and younger school age diagnosed with Down syndrome. Using the qualitative research method, information obtained from medical history and kinesiologic examination were recorded. In all 3 patients, poor posture was described, deficit of postural stability in upright standing, dynamic balance and deep and superficial sensation deficits were found. Therefore the therapy included elements of exercise in developmental series, sensomotoric exercises and equilibrium reactions training, exercises on a ball, working with physical schema, proprioceptive and exteroceptive stimulations, exercises to promote psychomotor development (exercise to music, according to pictures of animals), functional taping and breathing exercises. After completion of three-month individual therapy, postural stability in upright posture (in 1 patient), dynamic balance (in 3 patients), the quality of step cycle (in 2 patients) and the quality of posture (in 3 patients) were affected. In all the children the postural finding was affected by the change of the function of lower blade fixators. The therapy was limited by a lower level of cooperation caused by the mental handicap of children with DS. In this study, the positive effect of physiotherapy in the mentioned qualities on postural and locomotion skills in children with Down syndrome has been proved.
