Intoxication by ethanol or others addictive substances in emergency medicine
KUŠNIERIK, Štěpán
The thesis Intoxication by ethanol or others addictive substances in emergency medicine is divided into two parts dealing respectively with a theoretical and experimental study of drug and alcohol intoxication. The theoretical part deals with treating patients under the influence of alcohol or drugs. This part contains description of addictive drugs and how they influence and are distributed into the human body. The thesis also deals with symptoms of drug intoxication and proposes a treatment method. The task of this thesis was to observe whether urgent care staff has sufficient theoretical knowledge of drug and alcohol intoxication and if they use correct methods while dealing with patients and moreover if they have their own drug experience. The research part was carried out using quantitative method. The data were obtained from a form intended for all medical staff in emergency medical service field (doctors, paramedics, nurses, drivers) and was filled in at different emergency medical service clinics and departments of anesthesiology in Zdravotnická záchranná služba Jihočeského kraje, Zdravotnická záchranná služba Libereckého kraje, Nemocnice Českéch Budějovice and Masarykova městská nemocnice v Jilemnici. The hypothesis states that medical staff is aware of techniques and procedures administered to intoxicated patients - primary medical care and transportation. A few of the medical staff admitted to experimenting with drugs. The results support the hypothesis. I hope this thesis will be helpful not only to medical staff, but also to public and servers as an inspiration to further approaches.

ACTOR IN HIS OWN BODY
Legierski, Tomáš ; RIEDLBAUCHOVÁ, Veronika (advisor) ; ETLÍK, Jaroslav (referee)
Legierski, Tomas. The actor in his own body. Prague: Academy of Performing Arts in Prague, Faculty of Theatre, 2013. 74 pp. In this work, Tomas Legierski is attempting to show that acting is an autonomous and creative artistic work that does not consist of the mere reproduction of directorial ideas. The main starting point, according to this author, begins with an actor's body, his physicality/corporeality. Each role or character that the actor tries to grasp, with the help of the director, is primarily based on the actor's "being" on stage, which implies a certain behavior. Whether the actor is static or in motion on the stage he is still acting. Legierski seeks to examine the resources and ways of action that comprise the total expression of an actor´s performance. At the inception of theatrical action is conceived a gesture that represents communication with itself, colleagues on stage and the audience. Gesture and movements are perceived by this author to be intertwined. The core of this thesis is presented in three main chapters. In a chapter 1, Gesture in Actors, Legierski examines gesture as a movement and shape, its clarity and manner of its exercise. Chapter 2, Performing Being, describes the actor as a "total man", and examines the energy, dynamism and rhythm of the gesture which composes the essence of the actor´s existence on a stage. In chapter 3, Actor in a Composition, the author describes actors in specific theatrical situations where they make use of negotiation, revision and editing to create the composition stage. In these three chapters, the author identifies his inspiration for his graduate discipline of Pantomime while also describing how this technique and its protagonists have influenced his examination of the topic of a gesture.

Communication problems between nurses and hospitalized handicapped patients
TITLBACHOVÁ, Jana
Social contact is a necessary part of health care profession, and the ability to communicate well belongs to the most important skills of every medical staff. Successful treatment and overall cooperation is a result of mutual relationship and communication between the involved parties. However, professional communication of a nurse is a very demanding subject. There are numerous barriers and issues that prevent efficient communication. This bachelor{\crq}s thesis is aimed at the topic of communication of nurses and patients disadvantaged due to some handicap. 3 objectives were established for the paper. The first was to find out whether nurses have communication skills in relation to the handicapped patients. Further we were interested in whether the nurses were ready for communication with the handicapped patients through educational program in school, and the third objective was to find the most frequent problems in the identification of psycho-social needs of those patients. Hypotheses were formulated for the objectives H1: Nurses have communication skills in relation to the handicapped patients, H2: Nurses are sufficiently prepared for the communication with the handicapped patients through educational program in school, H3: Nurses emphasize time constraints as the problem of identification of psycho-social needs of the handicapped patients, and H4: The handicapped patients mention lack of privacy as the problem when talking with the nurse. The hypotheses H1 and H3 were confirmed, while H2 and H4 were not. Quantitative research was chosen for the preparation of research part of this bachelor{\crq}s thesis, and query method was used. As interpersonal contact and relation play major role in the communication, it can{\crq}t be evaluated only in one direction and two groups of respondents represented the sample file. The first group consisted of nurses in ward blocks of five hospitals, and the second of hospitalized handicapped patients. This thesis could serve as an educational material for medical staff. It is necessary to continuously learn and deal with this issue with the goal to improve the quality of the provided medical care for the hospitalized handicapped patients so that it corresponds to their actual needs. The results of the research could be an inspiration in the field of education of medical staff.

The Eternal Boyhood of Jiří Karásek ze Lvovic
Kolařík, Karel ; Vojtěch, Daniel (advisor) ; Lishaugen, Roar (referee) ; Merhaut, Luboš (referee)
The thesis attempts to describe the life and work of Jiří Karásek ze Lvovic through an analysis of his lifestyle, i.e. the way in which he organized, embellished and individualized his life. Karásek sought to shape his existence as an artwork, in accordance with the inspirational concepts of the contemporary and antecedent thinkers and artists (e.g. Oscar Wilde, Walter Pater and Maurice Maeterlinck). He accented its integrity and orientation towards beauty. In accord with his aesthetic vision (and his literary work) Karásek conditioned beauty with sadness and pain and attempted to emphasize melancholic beauty, unity in disunion. For that purpose he would accentuate particularly the disintegrative, critical elements, evoking the impression of unsuccessful, self-destructive endeavor to reach life's high ideal. This corresponded with his tragic concept of the artist immolating himself for his Art. I approach Karásek's lifestyle through the use of the terms youth and (eternal) boyhood, which Karásek himself employed as symbols of mournfully beautiful existence in his literary work. I define a youth - in accordance with the romantic and symbolist interpretation - as a person at odds with reality (contemporary truths, customs and rules), a solitary, unique being, trying to construct a new world - only...

Towards an Eco-inspired poetics of minimalist narrative
Kuzmičová, Anežka ; Pokorný, Martin (referee) ; Bílek, Petr (advisor)
What is a minimalist narrative, and what are its characteristic features? How do you identify one? For many critics, minimalist writing is a strictly historical notion - even though they at the same time, like John Barth does in his famous apologetics "A Few Words About Minimalism", paradoxically enough stress its ubiquitous nature throughout literature of all times. By narrative minimalism the American critic generally means the austere style of the novels and short stories of Raymond Carver, Amy Hempel, Mary Robison, Joan Didion, Ann Beattie. An American literary current of the 1970s mainly, devoted merely to the quotidian, descriptive, often reduced to what can be perceived from the outside of a human character. Thereby: the "dirty realism" or "K-mart realism". These derogatory labels tell us that the literary reviewer and critic of today still formulates his terms and judgments out of a hierarchically ordered, traditional presupposition of what a narrative text is and should be, working with a virtual model of balance between "form" and "content". Translated into the language of classical narratology: story discourse.

Zemánková, Kristýna ; Brož, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Ryšková, Mireia (referee)
The Abstract In her work the author deals with Christian marriage whose source and ideal is Christ in his relation to the Church, as it is presented in the paraenetical text of Eph 5:21-33. After the circumstances of the origin of the Letter has been presented, the author analyzes the paraenesis on the marriage itself applying the Historical and Literary Criticism, further she emphasizes its message and in this way points to the permanent relevance of the studied biblical text. This basic source is thereafter used as the point of departure for reflections on different fields as the theological anthropology, the sacramental theology and moral theology, and finds in them the affirmation of dignity and uniqueness of the marital bond and the inspiration for the fruitful life in marriage. Finally the consequences of the text for the spiritual theology are studied, for in the life of Christian spouses the spiritual life plays important role. The author emphasizes also the contribution of the biblical exegesis for development of theological research and points to the importance of interconnection of singular theological disciplines for the integrated vision of the studied reality.

Šponer, Jakub ; Jirků, Jan (advisor) ; Podzimek, Jan (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to discover how a top rated post in discussions of the three Czech online news sites - idnes.cz, novinky.cz and aktualne.cz looks like. Top rated comment was analyzed in terms of five criteria - whether related to the theme of the article, whether it contains vulgarisms, whether it occurs irony or humor, whether the comment expresses disagreement with the article and whether the user in his commentary expresses his own simplified conclusions, or his own solution to the problem. For the analysis and evaluation were used elements of quantitative and qualitative research and findings have been converted into graphic form. According to the results from all three servers, the ideal comment is the one that is related to the topic, does not contain vulgarisms and humor, agrees with the article and provides simplified conclusions or easy solutions. The results say a lot about the preferences of contributors to online discussions and may assist in the further study of their behavior, they can also inspire for more detailed research of phenomena throughout the discussion thread. In the context of the growing impact of the Internet and online media, analysis of the user preferences of online media can be not only beneficial for further research, but also for the media itself.

Actor and HIs Fear
Roleček, Vít ; OTČENÁŠEK, Štěpán (advisor) ; SALZMANNOVÁ, Eva (referee)
In my master thesis, I am trying to name the origins and signals of an actor`s fear. I have came from my own existing stage experiences previously and whilst studying classical acting at the Dramatic Faculty of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague, and also from my first experiences with differing professional groups from theatres from around the Czech Republic. My thesis is supported by professional literature, with which one I have read during my studies at the Academy, and it is inspired by talks and by consultation with people who are active in an artistic field. In my work I reflect my mental prosesses, states and blocks, not only during stage creations, but also in my personal life. I think that a fear can rule an actor and cause stage fright. This is why I have decided to choose this subject for my thesis.
