Responding to the Holocaust: the survivor's complex in reality and fiction
Míčková, Klára ; Frankl, Michal (referee) ; Ulmanová, Hana (advisor)
The survivor's complex is indeed a complicated matter which in itself might be discussed in greater detail than suggested here. Defining it mainly on psychological and psychiatric grounds is best suitable for the attempted literary analysis of the characters' inner souls and mental burdens. However, it could also be approached from social or cultural views which for the sake of the main theme of my thesis, which is to apply conclusions regarding authentic survivors and their real post-Holocaust lives to the characters created by the imaginative minds of fiction writers, I omit. Likewise, Cynthia Ozick's Rosa and Saul Bellow's Mr. Sammler's Planet can be treated purely as works of literary imagination without taking the survivor's complex into account and discussed in terms of their narrations or themes only. Nevertheless, without studying the survivor's complex, an important part of the works', or better characters' analyses would be neglected. I am not suggesting that all fiction about the Holocaust incorporates and displays the survivor's complex, but the complex still remains a part of most (both authentic and fictional) survivors' post-Holocaust lives and should therefore be given enough space in the analyses of works which deal with the theme of the Holocaust. The aim of the first part of this work was...

Cause of juvenile delinquancy and forms of recourse.
SCHREIEROVÁ, Pavlína
Criminal activity of juvenile delinquents is a subject discussed by specialists and employed widely by media. The public often condemn such offenders, under a strong influence of media presenting the issue of criminal activity of young persons from the point of view of consequences only and not from the point of view of causes thereof, without knowing the reason, which led juvenile delinquents to committing criminal activity, and requests fair punishment. Application of repressive, specifically disciplinary, preventive and retributive measures, however, not always serves its purpose. For these reasons, it is necessary, for effective solution of this issue, to determine causes of criminal activity committed by young persons, among which there are genetic predispositions, individual's personality, family, school, peer group, habit-forming substances or the aforementioned media. Actually, based on discovering and knowing the reasons, for which young persons commit criminal activity, it is possible to set effective prevention of such behaviour. The theoretical section of the thesis focuses on definition of the criminal activity structure in addition to causes of criminal activity?s commission by young persons arising from biological, psychological and social predispositions, measures, which can be imposed on young persons for their offence against the law, and entities, which collaborate in the solution of this issue. The determined goal, which lies in mapping of and detailed elaboration on the issue of criminal activity of juvenile delinquents and in describing the influence and importance of disciplinary, preventive and retributive measures which may be imposed on a juvenile delinquent, is followed by four research questions dealing with the most frequent cause, the most frequently committed criminal activity, relapse and form of delinquent activity's commission. Answers to the research questions resulted in hypotheses derived from the research based on the analysis of documents, specifically the secondary analysis of data acquired from ten case reports provided by guardians for young persons and probation officers. Conclusions of the bachelor's thesis should provide the public with integral information concerning the issue of criminal activity of young persons, in particular, should inform of the causes of such criminal activity and of the possibilities of effective sanctions for delinquent activity committed by juvenile delinquents.
