KAMENSKÁ, Julie
This academic-practical Bachelor's thesis attempts to outline various approaches to the depiction of dream imagery through the medium of photography. The first part of the academic section juxtaposes the interpretation of the meanings of dreams with regard to two theories Sigmund Freud's depth psychology and Carl Gustav Jung's theory of optimism.

The second part of the academic section presents diverse artistic approaches to imaginary photographies: Spanning from pictorialism, surrealism up to postmodern photographies and contemporary tendencies. The practical section of the thesis thematically continues the academic one by presenting five dream photographies. The comprehensive collection with the name "The Photographies of a Single Night" was inspired by my own dreams.

In the contemporary world that undergoes constant changes, theatre is changing with certain pace as well. It is only natural as it is an integrant, inseparable part of the society and its make-up.

Pragmatic moments in the dissertation of Karel Čapek
Váchová, Michaela ; Dadejík, Ondřej (advisor) ; Kaplický, Martin (referee)
Karel Čapek is known as a pragmatist of the Czech philosophical background. The truth is that the pragmatism had in the Czech philosophical background several idealistic followers in the 1st middle of the 20th century (Emanuel Rádl, Karel Vorovka, T. G. Masaryk). However the majority of them desinterpreted the idea of American pragmatism and they just proceeded via this philosophical tendence to the another one. My thesis deals with pragmatic moments in the Aesthetics of Karel Čapek because he finished his studies by the dissertation Objective Method in the Aesthetics regarding visual arts. Through the comparison with John Dewey's Art as Experience it's clear there's a pragmatic inspiration in the aesthetics too. However it is possible to speak just about the pragmatic moments, not about the pragmatic aesthetics.
