Film effects in Karel Hynek Mácha's prose narratives
Koten, Jiří
This essay inquires into the general characteristics of Karel Hynek Mácha's narrative fiction. It starts from the well-known analysis written by Jan Mukařovský. In the paper "Genetika smyslu v Máchově poezii" (Genetics of meaning in Mácha's poetry, 1938) Mukařovský claims that Mácha's works produce something of a cinematic effect. According to Mukařovský this is due to the interruption of narrated time (the dynamic plot is brought to a stop - up to a static scene), as well as by virtue of a technique reminiscent of a montage of impressive images. We consider this term pregnant, because it describes other characteristics of Mácha's fiction: the dramatical nature of narration and the fact that actions linking the storyline simultaneously serve as indices which evoke the impressive atmosphere. Even though Mácha uses authorial narration, focalization is mostly external and fictional minds aren't transparent. The narration comes close to the technique which is known as camera-eye narration.

Music in advertising in Studio Zlín between 1930 and 1940. Martinů's The Lady's shoe in context
Cechová, Martina ; Havelková, Tereza (advisor) ; Klimeš, Ivan (referee)
Anotation The Diploma paper, which is focused on advertisements of Studio Zlín in the 1930's, gives a coherent review of history, development and the role of advertisement in the Baťa company and reaches as far as the promotional motion picture in Zlín. It was being formed in continuity with the development of sound motion picture, which appeared, as one of the first, in Paris. This is where Bohuslav Martinů (8 December 1890 - 28 August 1959), who composed advertisement music Střevíček (The Lady's shoe) for the Baťa company in 1935, stayed at the time. The motion picture is classed with the period context of the film industry, sound motion picture and film advertisements. The goal of the presented text is to analyze in detail the music component of the promotional film Střevíček and to compare it with the other six Zlín advertisements. It was necessary, in order to compare these films, to study the function of sound dramaturgy in film (advertisement) and to deal with existing sound instruments and their proportions in promotional films in Zlín. The result of the work is the comparison of the use of these instruments and the correspondence of sound and picture in Baťa advertisements in consideration of Střevíček. Many new findings, such as specification of the work process during the composition of motion...

Dynamics of the Wavy Film Down an Inclined Plane. V. Newtonian Orr-Sommerfeld Problem Revisited
Wein, Ondřej ; Tihon, Jaroslav
Linear stability of the Newtonian film flow along an inclined plate is studied by treating the related 2D linearized equations of fluctuating motion (Orr-Sommerfeld). Quadratic character of the Orr-Sommerfeld (OS) equations and the corresponding multiplicity of solution (the regular and singular branch) is demonstrated. Region of validity of both the long-wave (20 terms) and short-wave (4 terms) analytic asymptotes to the regular branch is estimated by comparing it with numerical solution to the full Orr-Sommerfeld problem. In particular, the c1-stability criterion of the regular long-wave asymptote is confirmed. In addition to the basic wave characteristics of the inception region (celerity, growth rate, wavelength), the characteristics of the fluctuating wall shear rate are given.

Ptinciples of semiotic analysis of comics
Přibyláková, Martina ; Nekvapil, Jiří (referee) ; Palek, Bohumil (advisor)
The first part of the thesis is concerned with the theory of comics. The author considers the concept of graphic space of comics as a basic notion of the presented theory. On the basis of graphic space it is possible to introduce the individual concepts of the comics theory, namely comics sign, comics word, comics image. The author introduces the new concept of "prototypic" comics scheme which serves as the basis for comparative analysis of an old Czech comics Rychlé šípy with modern adult comics. The concept of comics image is viewed by some theoretical approaches of pictorial semiotics (Eco, Goodman, Snesson), and Peirce's general semiotics, and film semiotics. The comics image is defined as rhytmical plural multidimensional comics structure. The thesis is concerned with its various structural dimensions and their units. In the second part, some of the theoretical concepts introduced in the first part are applied in the comparative analysis, which focuses on some devices used in a famous old Czech comics Rychlé šípy by J. Foglar, and in modern adult comics (the corpus of the chosen Czech and worldwide comics is included in the present work). The parameters for the comparison are: comics cover, graphic space, comics time, interiorisation and animisation of exterior, chromatic coding, picture-verbal...

Lyofilizace lipozomů pro perorální aplikaci léčiv
Vacková, Michaela ; Šklubalová, Zdeňka (advisor) ; Dittrich, Milan (referee)
The protein or peptide substances are not appropriate for oral application. One of the many obstacles, is an aggressive environment of the gastrointestinal tract. One way to protect these substances is the preparation of liposomes. The aim of this work was preparation of liposomes of the different composition, choice of the optimum aqueous media, and stabilization using freeze-drying. All samples consisted of egg phosphatidylcholine(EPC) and cholesterol (Chol), with the addition of one out of the substances: cholylsarcosine (CS), stearoylamine (SA) and vitamin E (TPGS), respectively, in various ratio. Liposomes were prepared using a film method and manual extrusion through membrane with pore size 200 nm. The liposome size and polydispersity was measured by photon corellation spectroscopy. After the extrusion, the liposomes underwent freeze-drying in the presence of selected appropriate cryoprotectants: sucrose and trehalose, respectively. Stability has been established by evaluating the visual characteristics of the product (the appearance), solubility in the water and measuring of liposome size and polydispersity.

The Valley of the Bees. Analysis of a historical film. The historical film and the making of historical cognizance. Historical film in teaching history
Balík, Ondřej ; Klimeš, Ivan (referee) ; Beneš, Zdeněk (advisor)
I have always considered the enormously powerful and influencial film art to be an interesting topic for various reflections. The obvious difference between written literature, which works with the imagination of a reader, and the illusion-based film, makes us ask what information a viewer gets from a film, and what implications it bears. In order to get an answer to this question, I decided to choose a film and to analyse it. The historical feature film Údolí včel (The Valley oj the Bees) is an outstanding work of art of the famous Czech film director František Vláčil and the screen writer Vladimír K6mer, who made this film in 1967. The story is set in an the thirteenth century. A young son of a Czech thane Ondřej is sent to a monastic knight order. He meets a friend there - Armin von Heide - a hard and a somewhat fanatic knight. Ondřej runs away from the monastery, chased by Armin. At home, he takes care of Vlkov, an estate he inherited from his father. He falls in love with his stepmother and they decide to get married. But on the day oftheir wedding, Armin, who finally found Ondřej, decides to kill Ondřej 's young wife. In his despair, Ondřej lets his dog s kill Armin and then leaves home to retum to the monastery.

The film and the railways. Films which take place in the train
Ruta, Tomáš ; Klimeš, Ivan (referee) ; Hanáková, Petra (advisor)
Film i vlak jsou symboly moderní doby, rychlosti, osudovosti a pomíjivosti. Tématem této diplomové práce jsou filmy, které se odehrávají ve vlaku. Nikoli filmy, v nichž hraje železnice jakoukoliv roli. Soustředím se především na jízdu vlakem a její filmové zobrazování. Tento typ syžetu je oblíbený v literatuře i v celých dějinách filmu, protože jízda vlakem zaručuje, že se něco bude dít, i když se zdánlivě nebude dít nic. Základní premisa všech uměleckých děl odehrávajících se ve vlaku je, že cesta vlakem znamená změnu. Práce je rozdělena do dvou částí: teoretické, ve které se zaměřuji na vybudování a popis vztahu mezi železnicí a kinematografií, vztahu, který je založen na modernistických základech rychlosti a mobility, a analytické, ve které jsem si vybral modelové příklady filmu, které zastupují určité varianty filmového zpracování jízdy ve vlaku. Jsou to: Frigo na mašině (The General; Buster Keaton a Clyde Bruckman, 1926), Na sever severozápadní linkou (North by Northwest; Alfréd Hitchcock, 1959), Jeden večer, jeden vlak (Un soir, un train; André Delvaux, 1968), Evropa (Europa; Larse von Trier, 1991) a Kalamita (Věra Chytilová, 1982). Nepracuji s předem přesně daným korpusem filmových děl, ani se teritoriálně neomezuji na konkrétní národní kinematografii. To, co vytvářím, je určitá typologie možností,...

Circulation of views: from the renaissance spectator to the male viewer in feminist film theory
Hanáková, Petra ; Zuska, Vlastimil (advisor) ; Petříček, Miroslav (referee) ; Ferenčuhová, Mária (referee)
Na zacátku této práce jsem si dala za cíl popsat ukotvení pojmu pohled postupne ve trech diskurzivních a spolecenských plochách, které bud mimorádne promenují ci vymezují vizuální pole a pozici diváka a potažmo divacky v nem. Pruzkum všech trí ploch smeroval k postupnému rozkrývání vrstev pojmu v konkrétním, jasne vymezeném kritickém paradigmatu genderových studií. Teoretizace videní se tu postupne odhalovala jako proces neustálého re-definujícího pohybu, kdy se jednotlivá podloží se na sebe vrstvila v kolobehu sebepotvrzování mocenského videní. Shluk významu okolo termínu pohled (the gaze, le regard) se nakonec vyjevil jak ve svých ahistorických determinacích a predpokladech, tak i v urcující vázanosti na výsadní historickou situaci a specifické metody premýšlení o filmu.
