Transfer and interpretation. Expatriation of Czechoslovak citizens of German birth 1945-1947 and its accounts in daily newspaper
Klimeš, David ; Bednařík, Petr (referee) ; Kubů, Eduard (advisor)
The aim of my thesis is to analyze the transfer of the Gennan people as covered by the daily press, which was both partisian and officially considered not to be under the influence of the political parties. Among such newspapers were Právo lidu, Svobodné Slovo, Rudé právo, Lidová demokracie, Svobodné noviny, Práce, Zemědělsé noviny, Svobodné československo (Obrana lidu), Mladá fronta and Národní osvobození. In fact, most of these "independent" newspapers were under control of the Communist Party. Resettlement of the Germans was one of the most important issues discussed by the Czech cabinet after the W orld War II. The transfer of the Gennans was obviousl y a genuine wish of the maj ority of the Czech people. However, following the first revolutionary months, a variety of opinions was being expressed on this issue. The Communists wanted to use the resettlement as a political instrument. Naturally, they were in favor of a total transfer of the Germans. On the other hand, other political powers expressed more moderate views, such as the catholic People's Party. The debate was broadly covered by the newspapaers. The media offered greater variety of perspective. There was a strong censorship by the establishment as well as by the journalists themselves, and no one dared to stand against the Košický program...

Voice education for dance pedagogues
Kafková, Martina ; VODÁČKOVÁ, Daniela (advisor) ; JANDA ROGLOVÁ, Tereza (referee)
Pressented master´s thesis reflects a personal quest of voice pedagogy for dance pedagogues titled: Voice education for dance pedagogues. It derives from a drill based artistic evvironment and it deliberately branches off to a path towards vocal expression being discovered primarily through human needs. The author presents a belief, the cornerstone of any pedagogical work with a "fragile" human being is an environment of mutual trust and confidence, which only can offer a safe place and enough space for rehearsing. It is this perspective the thesis is being processed and deliberately presented. The quest of authorial approach towards the student the author had undergone represents a paralel to the existential form she had captured in previous bachelor?s thesis under the title: Author´s existence, or a path from a stage to children´s playgrounds.

The constituent negation and ways to express it in contemporary Czech
Veselovská, Kateřina ; Lehečková, Eva (referee) ; Medová, Lucie (advisor)
The thesis is focused on constituent negation and ways of its expressing in contemporary Czech, or more precisely in Czech National Corpus (SYN2005) and Prague Dependency Treebank (version 2.0). In most of the Czech linguistic handbooks, constituent negation was treated as such a negation that does not operate on predicate. The author offers a new definition of constituent negation in Czech, based on data research and study of relevant literature concerning syntactic negation. Further, the author proposes a formalization of the structure of constituent negation within the framework of construction grammar and she also explores the possibility to express the findings in PDT.

Expression of interpropositional relationships in the translation of bilateral international treaties
Novotná, Marcela ; Králová, Jana (advisor) ; Uličný, Miloslav (referee)
This extended essay deals with the theme of expression of interpropositional relationships in the translation of bilateral international treaties. In the theoreticalempirical part we characterize generally the functional law style and then we define its features both in the Czech and in the Spanish languages. We offer a short synopsis of its different genres covered by this functional style. We study the question of legal translation and distinguish its two fundamental types - the instrumentally and the documentary translation. We present the genre of bilateral international treaty. By summarizing the information contained in the specialized literature and the translation analysis we determine its dominant features both in the Czech and in the Spanish languages (with the exception of the area of interpropositional relationships which will be dealt by detail 113 in the empirical part of our essay). The area of the interpropositional relationships follows by defining them as the object of our research. The empirical part is elaborated by the method of a qualitative research. In the exemplar material of the bilateral international treaties proceeding from the area of the law of social security we explore the realization of the proposition from the point of view of explicitation and implicitation of its...

Criticism of Social Conditions in the Drama of F. G. Lorca, A. Casona, R. Alberti and M. Mihura
Lukešová, Alice ; Sánchez Fernández, Juan Antonio (advisor) ; Mathé, Lukáš (referee)
This thesis is concerning four playwriters: Lorca, Casona, Alberti and Mihura. Although it is not common to discuss them together, selected authors were born, grew up and started to write their plays in the same period, influenced by the very same events. Thus they use their works to reflect the same social issues. Every author expressed his criticism by specific forms: tragedy, absurd comedy, avant-garde or poetic theater. The variety offered in their works enables to illustrate the society from different points of views, which can hence capture it as a whole. Fancy and interpretation differ widely among people, therefore criticism expressed through various forms, is supposed to interest a wide range of persons.

The Application of the Soft Systems Methodology to the Problem of Insufficient Information Delivery from the Public Administration of the Town Lysá nad Labem to its Citizens in Public Matters
Galanová, Dagmar ; Šubrta, Václav (advisor) ; Klas, Jan (referee)
The aim of this paper is to analyze the problem of insufficient information delivery from the public administration of the town Lysá nad Labem to its citizens in public matters and to find particular solutions to improve the situation. The problem is being analyzed and partly solved by the soft systems methodology which is best used with complex unstructured problems involving human action. The soft systems methodology provides number of thinking-supportive tools which are used to find out about the problem situation, express particular problems and to find feasible and desirable solutions which lead to improvement. The application of the soft systems methodology brought very detailed analysis of the problem situation from which a number of possible solutions to improve the problem have arisen. One solution proposal offers solutions which hardly intervene in the structure and processes of the present system and are more likely to be implemented in a long term perspective. The other solution proposal consists of solutions which can be implemented in a short term perspective.

Playing Tricks: An analysis of Janice Galloway
Kotalíková, Michaela ; Nováková, Soňa (advisor) ; Clark, Colin Steele (referee)
Novels by Scottish author Janice Galloway belong to the most influential works in contemporary Scottish women's writing and her female characters often offer a stunning insight into the minds of women, who are stricken by various forms of emotional or existential distress. The aim of this thesis is to discuss and closely examine the main character Joy Stone in Galloway's most famous novel The Trick is to Keep Breathing, in order to analyse the position of a woman in contemporary Scottish society and underline the importance of work such as this one. The first aspect that attracts attention is its unusual and experimental form apparent from the very first sight by the mere flicking through the book. The text seems to be living its own life, often changing form, breaking down into lists, signs or play-like dialogues, and some words even partly disappear off the pages. This fragmentation is one of the main focuses of the novel and it is expressed in two levels. One of them is the fragmentation of the text which mirrors the second one, the mental breakdown of the main character Joy Stone. This study is going to concentrate on both of these aspects, firstly it will deal with disintegration of the mind of Joy and the world around her, and subsequently it will proceed onto the form of the novel and look...

Plastic beauty - the body within the frame of aesthetic surgery
Koktová, Eva ; Ezzeddine, Petra (advisor) ; Šlesingerová, Eva (referee)
In Czech Republic, aesthetic plastic surgery experiences a boom. By offering body modification it also contributes to a change in perception of the body and physicality of a contemporary man in a certain way. In this dissertation I have attempted to view aesthetic plastic surgery as an institution to which three different paths lead - the path of a client, the path of a physician and the path of promotion. I have approached the topic through the interviews with people who have personal experience with aesthetic surgery. Foremost I was interested in what their individual experience with the body was, what brought them to the decision to have their body surgically modified and what was the role of contemporary culture which ceaselessly produces idealized images of a human body in this decision. To my research I have added interviews with physicians who practice at clinics of aesthetic medicine together with managers of these clinics who take care of the promotion. Through their bodies people express their personality, they strive to reach an ideal harmony and even a minor modification of appearance may significantly help them to achieve this. The body has become a project and plastic surgery a tool how to win control over it - despite the signs of aging, maternity and congenital defects.
