Fousková, Barbora ; Sánchez Fernández, Juan Antonio (advisor) ; Poláková, Dora (referee)
Key words novella, honour, Baroque, woman, society Abstract The main subject of this thesis is the theme of honour. Unlike my previous study, The theme of honour in the Spanish theatre of the XVI and XVII centuries, this work focuses on the literary genre of the novella and it will be interested in honour of women. Woman's honour is one of the great themes, which played a part of literary output of every author at that time. The work will be based on particular literary works, as well as historical context. Because of this, the first part gives literary-theoretical and socio-historical context. This section has as its purpose to introduce the theory of the Spanish Renaissance and Baroque novella, as well as the social status of women in the society of the 17th century. The second part treats the honour of women in the literary context, and relies on selected texts of various significant authors. How the second part will show us, in spite of relative dogmatism and conservatism of Baroque society, every author in his texts offers a different vision and especially different solutions. The main objective of this thesis is capture and describe the multiplicity of attitudes to the universal theme of honour.

Short Prose of Jaroslav Vrchlický
Hubáček, Jiří ; Vaněk, Václav (advisor) ; Topor, Michal (referee)
This bachelor thesis aims to offer a complex approach to the short prose of Jaroslav Vrchlický. It proceeds chronologically and pays attention to the particular collections of stories as well as to the items of prose printet individually or ones in manuscript form; as an appendix to the stories, the thesis analyses feuilletons and memories. Yet it is focused primarily on the history of literature, it deals mainly with the genesis of the texts, their editions and critical reception and it examines their intertextual relations to the classical works of the world literature. On the basis of my analysis of individual stories, it strives to grasp the basic enveloping of Vrchlický as a novelist in separate periods of his creative course and hereby, to present the whole of his prosaic works as a dynamically changing and developing part of his entire writing.

The Representation of Shoah: Children Writing the Holocaust
Vlasáková, Šárka ; Holý, Jiří (advisor) ; Mravcová, Marie (referee)
Aim of this diploma thesis is to compare different forms of narrating of the holocaust through Children's eyes. Pure child's narration has much bigger impact on reader than narration of an adult, enriched with metaphors and attributes. In this way child's point of view extends the ethical dimension of holocaust narration. We will examine the discourse of child's narration in three diaries (The Diary of David Sierakowiak, The Diary of Mary Berg, The Beautiful Days of My Youth by Ana Novac), one Fictional diary (The Unloved. From the Diary of Perla S. by Arnošt Lustig) and a novella (Child of the Shadows by Henryk Grynberg). Children's narrators of the holocaust are characterized by psychological maturity, which contrasts with their official age. On the other hand they reveal childishness, while growing up, because of their unfinished childhood. In those books we will examine changing of the narrators discourse and his depiction of space (ghetto, concentration camp, shelter) and persons (family, friend, Nazis). We will also focus on distinct motives that form these books (e.g.: hunger, guilt, comic, Paradise, game).

Anxiety and estrangement in Juan Carlos Onetti's works
Krupková, Tereza ; Housková, Anna (advisor) ; Vydrová, Hedvika (referee)
Anxiety and estrangement in Juan Carlos Onetti's works Key words: Onetti, The Well, novel, Eladio Linacero, estrangement, anxiety, loneliness, dreams, Tizón This work focuses on the literary conception of characters in Onetti's works. Specifically, it converges on anxiety, loneliness and estrangement, which are the central components of the author's prose. Onetti's first-fruit, The Well, serves as a starting point. This novel revealed new possible ways of the novel-writing and influenced many other authors. It carries the key issues of Onetti's future work. The novel is sketchy; the images often do not follow each other and they are directed by hidden associations. There appears a new character: urban anti-hero, who escapes from the hostile reality to the fantasy life. The present work features the protagonist of The Well with other Onetti's characters. The part dedicated to the style focuses on the relation between form and content. Onetti's books are about misunderstanding which is reflected in the structure and language. In the final chapter of this work is confronted The Well with The Beauty of the World by Héctor Tizón. Different and in some components similar processes allow to recognize and define Onetti's style and uniqueness better.

Inheritance proceedings with a focus on selected issues expenditure in legal theory and practice
Kroupová, Michaela ; Pikola, Pavel (advisor) ; Jaromír, Jaromír (referee)
This thesis deals with the issue of inheritance procedure, and is focused on selected issues of expenses in legal theory and practice. The most notable changes in inheritance law became effective with the new Civil Code on January 1st 2014. A very important amendment to the funeral services law is in the process of approval at the moment.
Death is an integral part of everyone´s life. Everyone will die one day, we should think about the last farewell. Inheritance procedure is a very extensive and complex process. In case there is no one willing to prepare the funeral, the so called "social funeral" is organized by the municipality where the person died. The body is usually cremated and placed at the nearest appointed place. In some cases the municipality keeps the urns
at the office in order to save costs. The funeral is organized at the lowest cost possible.
The analytical part is focused on the "social funerals" and related expenses in specified cities of the Czech republic - Český Krumluv, Říčany and Šternberk. Afterwards, the number and costs of social funerals in selected districts of Prague is analyzed. Unfortunately not in all
of them, because some districts did not provide the data. The social funeral is not only for the case when the bereaved do not have the means, but also for the case when the family refuses to prepare the funeral for other reasons. One other option for people without financial resources could be self-organized funeral - without the assistance of a funeral service. Self-organized funerals are a very controversial topic. The funeral services of course refuse them, because it would reduce their business opportunities.
