Selected issues of public licences
Beneš, Miroslav ; Holcová, Irena (advisor) ; Křesťanová, Veronika (referee)
Selected Issues of Public Licenses The aim of this master thesis is to present certain issues which are connected with free and open source software public licenses, analyze them and provide sufficient solutions. The main reason for choosing the topic was a lack of czech literature in a forementioned area despite of growing importance of open source software industry. The thesis is composed of seven chapters (apart from the introduction). The first chapter characterises basic frame of computer programs protection by means of copy- right (or droit d'auteur more precisely) in the Czech Republic. Chapter two defines the public license and attempts to evaluate its legal enforceability. Several examples of public licenses are analyzed and the ideas behind free and open source software movement are presented. The proprietary license is mentioned as opposite to public license. The third chapter focuses on open source software development and its questionable aspects. It deals with a problem of author plurality in a first part of the chapter. The second part looks at an international element in open source development and provides rules for determination of the governing law that should apply to licenses and other legal relations. The next three chapters discuss the selected issues of public licenses. The...

Černá, Daniela ; Müllerová, Eva (advisor) ; Jančík, Jiří (referee)
TITTLE: The Frequency of Non-finite Clauses (gerund, present participle, infinitive) in Works of French Literature. AUTHOR: Daniela Černá DEPARTMENT: Department of French Language and Literature. SUPERVISOR: PhDr. Eva Müllerová, CSc. ABSTRACT: The aim of the thesis is to examine the frequency and the function of non-finite clauses in selected works of French literature. It is possible to establish the characteristic features of non-finite clauses by means of a statistical research of the prevalence of particular clauses within the first ten pages of selected works of French literature. Another goal of the thesis lies in the definition of the influence of both the literary genre and the period in which the work was written on the choice of particular non-finite clauses. In conclusion, the thesis should underline the position of French non-finite clauses and could also serve as a tool for prospective French teachers in the form of a review of the representation of non-finite clauses in literary language. KEYWORDS: non-finite clause, gerund, present participle, infinitive, sentence elements

The Holocaust through child's eyes
Šimečková, Tereza ; Holý, Jiří (advisor) ; Mravcová, Marie (referee)
The thesis analyses the child's perspective in the literary works of the holocaust literature - the novel The Painted Bird by Jerzy Kosinski, the short story Děti (Children) by Arnošt Lustig and the piece Noc (Night) by Elie Wiesel. We assume that the child's perspective is significant and totally different from the perspective of the adult narrator. The goal of the thesis is to define the characteristic elements in the narrative. First and foremost we seek to analyze the elements in the language, style and motifs of the texts. We also want to define what kinds of literary works are suitable to be denominated as literature written through the child's eyes. We divide the works into several groups according to the fact if the book is a fiction or a memoir. The main differences in using the child's perspective are between these two groups of literary works. In the thesis we first describe the holocaust as a historical event and then we go on with the description of the holocaust literature. In the other parts of the thesis we analyze the literary works mentioned above.

The mosaic and the fragment. Threee examples of the Italian postmodern novel
Štichauerová, Olga ; Flemrová, Alice (advisor) ; Pelán, Jiří (referee)
The presented thesis tries to show the main characteristics of the postmodern poetics presenting three examples of Italian novels of the last third of the twentieth century. All of these pieces work with the motive of the fragmentarity, disharmony and the mosaic in the different basic elements of the text: the character, the space and the story as a whole. The fragmentarity is considered as a sign of the postmodern art and literature that is based on the breakdown of unity, on plurality in contrary to the peroid of modernism. The introduction briefly presents different theoretical approaches to the question of postmodernism, especially the concept of Wolfgang Welsch and Italian semiotics. Three main chapters are focused on the motive of the fragmented figure (in the novel Notturno indiano by Antonio Tabucchi), the motive of space (in Alessandro Baricco's City) and the story (Italo Calvino and his Se una notte d'inverno un viaggiatore). In the end of the thesis there are found parallels in these three texts in the narrative procedures and similar motives which are also characteristic for the postmodernism.

Coordination abilities in long-term concept sports training of children
Oburková, Renata ; Perič, Tomáš (advisor) ; Krištofič, Jaroslav (referee)
Title Coordination abilities in long-term concept sports training of children Objective The point of the thesis is handle the issue of coordination ability. In the first part of the thesis I will talk about general issues of children's sports training, developmental patterns and the characteristic of sensitive periods. The fundamental basis of my research part is find out how the coordination skills involved in long-term sports training, what is their role in motor development of children and what their biological basis. Methods The thesis has a theoretical character and it uses qualitative methods: compares, analyses and interprets texts and data acquired through background research. Results Coordination skills have proven essential element of successful mastery of motor skills in the concept of long-term sports training more or less dependent on coordination. If there are individual skills developed in the sensitive periods is very difficult to catch up with missed this and achieve the same level of skills acquired. Important role in the development of coordination skills and heredity plays a connection with the state and function of the central nervous system. Key words sports training of children, coordination, development, sensitive periods

of Mgr. Martin Valent doctoral thesis Hyoliths of the Barrandian Area The submitted Ph.D. thesis summarizes recent information on comparatively poorly known group of invertebrates - the hyoliths. The first part of the thesis is composed by six main chapters focussed in detail on various aspects of hyoliths; major characteristics and ecology of hyoliths, progress in systematic of hyoliths, principles of hyolith classification, stratigraphical and palaeogeographical distribution of hyoliths, hyoliths within the Bohemian Massif and morphology of hyoliths. Up-to-date information has been included in all chapters. New data were published in five author's papers on hyolith colour patterns, systematics of hyoliths, pattern of palaeogeographic distribution and palaeoecologic interactions between hyoliths and various elements of the Cambrian invertebrate fauna. Short appendage consists of the Czech-English-Chinese terminological dictionary, simplifying study of Chinese literature.

Ibn Sina's Hayy ibn Yaqdhan: translation and commentary
Vitásková, Magdaléna ; Kropáček, Luboš (advisor) ; Ondráš, František (referee)
English Summary The present study consists of two main parts, namely translation and commentary of the philosophical-mystical recital Hayy ibn Yaqdhan (The Living, Son of the Vigilant). The author is a significant philosopher of the Islamic East Ibn Síná (980-1037), whose biography is a part of this study. Although this treatise is not his most famous work, it belongs for its strong narrative aspects, aesthetic values and depth of the symbolism to brilliant writings of classical Arabic literature. The commentary is divided into chapters that correspond to the themes contained in the treatise. The main motive represents the journey of human intellect, who is guided by the Active intellect personified in the figure of The Living, son of the Vigilant towards a higher knowledge. Once the rational soul has realized its angelic potential sets on an intelectual journey into the world of the separated forms, which is finally crowned with a vision of God. Ibn Sīnā presents through this symbolic story central elements of his teachings, namely the theory of intellect, psychology and epistemology, the theory of matter and form, cosmology, emanation theory, angelology ant theology. The secret motive and philosophical-mystical message of the treatise is love, which is as an ascending principle of the creation opposite to...

The reception and influence of fin de siécle Scandinavian literature in Czechia
Thál, Jonáš ; Humpál, Martin (advisor) ; Hartlová, Dagmar (referee)
Práce se zabývá recepcí skandinávské dekadentně laděné literatury v českém kulturním prostředí, přičemž je brán v úvahu celkový evropský kulturní a myšlenkový kontext konce 19. století; akcentována je zároveň kulturní homogenita evropské literatury období fin de sicle. Skandinávská literatura je v práci vnímána jako důležitý element jak v českých periodicích (nejzásadnější je z hlediska tohoto pojednání činnost skupiny kolem Moderní revue), tak v běžné vydavatelské činnosti. Práce se detailněji věnuje osobnostem skandinávské literatury jako August Strindberg, Ola Hansson, Georg Brandes, Herman Bang, Arne Garborg a jejich vlivu na českou resp. evropskou literární scénu. Autor též zdůrazňuje význam osobního kontaktu mezi jednotlivými osobnostmi literárního a uměleckého světa fin de sicle.

Dimensional transmutation in quantum theory
Ebr, Jan ; Hořejší, Jiří (advisor) ; Novotný, Jiří (referee)
This work deals with two models - from the quantum eld theory it is the massless scalar electrodynamics (the so-called Coleman-Weinberg model) and from quantum mechanics it is the contact (-function) potential (in two dimensions) - that are apparently invariant under some sort of scale transformations and thus they, in suitably chosen units, contain only dimensionless parameters. It turns out that even in the quantum-mechanical case one has to add an additional procedure to the formal denition of the model and that the use of dierent physical regulators leads to the same results, that furthermore agree with the predictions of the mathematically rigorous method of self-adjoint operator extensions. In this work, we present detailed calculations supporting this result. Contrary to the common literature, we do so in a straightforward manner, which can be followed step by step (with all the necessary elements of functional analysis summarised in the Appendix). In quantum eld theory we apply a similar approach, when we "rediscover" the results of the abstract functional methods in the ordinary perturbation theory. In its framework, we further show how to obtain predictions also for other quantities than particle masses.
