The Hippocratic treatise On the Sacred Disease. Translation, commentary and introductory study
Országh, Ján ; Fischerová, Sylva (advisor) ; Souček, Jan (referee)
The treatise On the sacred disease is one of the oldest works included in the Hippocratic corpus and one of the finest examples of the Greek rationalism. Considered to be written in the last decades of the 5th century BC it is concerned with the issue of epilepsy, the disease called "sacred" by magicians and wandering cathartic priests that the author denotes as mere charlatans. According to him, epilepsy is no way more sacred nor more divine than other sicknesses, he places its origin into the brain and claims that it is a hereditary illness. In the introductory study, the character and the structure of the treatise are outlined, it is argued that it was delivered as a speech, the issues of the datation, autorship, reception and textual tradition are discussed. The study is followed by the first translation of the Sacred disease into Czech. In the extensive commentary, apart of the explanation of the text, many problems such as the author's conception of the divine, his sources and some other theoretical issues discussed by scholars are presented and their solution is proposed.

My Bachelor thesis, having a background research character, is focused onto amber and its inclusions. In the first part of my thesis, I give some general information on amber: its characteristics and formation, factors for the preservation of inclusions in amber, and distribution of amber. The second part gives a short describtion of methods for amber research. The main focus is on scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. I depict some points of the research of geographical and botanical origin of the samples too. As for the last part, I try to get from the rather theoretical explanations to practical points of amber research: what information can amber and its inclusions offer to us? I summarize a few results of amber research which are devided into three groups: information about the climate in which the sample was formed, information on the evolution of life, and information on coexistence of species.

To the previous issues link two institutes which deal with third and fourth chapter - authorized and unauthorized construction.

Jarolímková, Adéla ; Papík, Richard (advisor) ; Vlasák, Rudolf (referee) ; Špála, Milan (referee)
There were huge changes in spreading and use of scientific medical information in last fifteen years due to development of new information and communication technologies and changes in medicine as well. The research described in this thesis adresses possible changes in information behaviour of physicians and other healthcare workers both abroad and in the Czech Republic. Foreign studies were reviewed and summarized. A survey method was used for the Czech research, the survey was spread with the help of medical libraries and information centers both in print and online version. 228 valid answers were collected. Several factors were supposed to influence information behaviour (age, sex, affiliation, healthcare occupation, job description), but only the influence of affiliation and occupation was confirmed. There were significant differences between information behaviour of physicians and nurses and between research workers and hospital employees. It can be said that information behaviour of healthcare workers is influenced by the character of their occupation, that entails responsibility for life and that demands both a lot of information and lifelong education. On the other hand the high workload does not offer enough time to saturate information needs. Emphasis is placed on reliability of resources, but...

Battered Woman Syndrome and Associated Social and Health Risks
JANOVSKÁ, Tereza
Domestic violence is currently one of the most common type of violence and includes all forms of physical, psychological and sexual violence. It occurs at all levels of society and it does not discriminate neither between age or intellectual layers. Domestic violence occurs in cases of women, men, children and even elderly people. It does not discriminate regarding skin colour, political or religious beliefs or the level of education. Violence perpetrated in privacy on our closest people is part of our entire society. Still the most common type of violence is the one perpetrated on women. Violence threatens health as well as overall life of the victim. Long-term consequences of violence against another person arise the battered person syndrome which is discussed in this bachelor thesis. This bachelor thesis is divided in two parts. The theoretical part is about basic characteristic of domestic violence and discusses its various characters, causes and its consequences for the victims. In this bachelor thesis you can also find an explanation of the division of roles by gender, according to which the idea of the authoritative man and the submissive woman is anchored in our society. Then the basic pillar of the whole theoretical part follows, which is battered women's syndrome itself. In this chapter and subchapter the onset and course of the syndrome is described by means of specialized literature. The end of the theoretical includes institutions and legal measures, which the Czech Republic established to help abused persons. The second part consists of the practical part, which is the main focus of the whole bachelor thesis. It consists of a drawn qualitative research, which consists of semi-structured interview with five female communication partners that are currently experiencing violence from their partner. Data were collected in a Crisis center for children and family. After theoretical description of the strategy, techniques and methodologies, the description of a sample and the research itself follows. The main goal is mapping the life situation of battered women. Research question focuses on identifying the actual subjective experience of battered women and their perception of a difficult situation. This thesis should lead to understandable infomation about victims of domestic violence and its consequences. Research results have shown that abused women grew up in conflicting families and in their childhood they recorded disputes between their parents. Furthermore battered women recorded psychological, medical and social impacts that lead to decreased self-esteem, loss of friends and becoming withdrawn. Battered women do not trust strangers, do not like to talk about their problem and they are convinced that it is beyond their power to emerge from this difficult situation, despite the fact that it is their wholeheartedly wish. The bachelor thesis could be beneficial to the education of social workers who are interested in the issue of battered people and could enrich the knowledge of the society in general.
