Primary letters, relationes and other writing of then missionaries and soldiers. Written sources are supported by few pictures taken by 18th and early 19th century artists.

Most detailed description exists for appearance and clothing for both men and women. Almost every author writes about their nomadic life, diet and horse riding. Exact date and route of Apachean migration southward is not known, but their way of life was shurely influenst by climate change after coming to present day area. Trading and other contacts with neighbouring tribes were important source of cuI tural change. Peublos influence was most important, because part of this tribe joined Navajo short befor 1700 AD and teached them art of weaving, making fine pottery and silver jewellery.

The Use of Pictorial Material in German Lessons for the Lower Grades of Primary School
Kotyzová, Pavla ; Švermová, Dagmar (advisor) ; Nečasová, Pavla (referee)
ln der vorliegenden Diplomarbeit beschäftigte ich mich mit dem Einsatz des Bildmaterials im Deutschunterricht an Grundschulen. Das Bild als ein visuelles Medium hat schon seit jeher einen festen Platz im Unterricht allgemein und insbesondere im Fremdsprachenunterricht. Dies lässt sich bis zu Comenius zurück verfolgen. Je nach Unterrichtsmethode änderte sich die Verwendung des Bildes und damit seine Bedeutung. Ich untersuchte die verschiedenen Funktionen von Bildmaterial im Deutschunterricht und arbeitete Besonderheiten heraus. Dabei zeigte sich, dass die Motivationsfunktion eines der wichtigsten Elemente im Unterricht ist. Darüber hinaus gab ich einen Überblick über die Bildtypologie, definierte Begriffe wie analoge, logische Bilder und Abbildungen, und gliederte sie weiter in verschiedene Bildsorten auf. Ich erarbeitete Vorschläge und Arbeitsschritte zum Umgang mit Bildmaterial im Unterricht, die weithin anwendbar sein können. Dabei bezog ich auch Text-Bild- Kombinationen in meine Überlegungen mit ein. Wie erwartet zeigte sich, dass sich Bildmaterial auf vielfältige Art und Weise dazu eignet, den Deutschunterricht mit anderen Unterrichtsfächern zu verbinden. Hauptsächlich die Fächer Kunst, Landes- und Naturkunde, aber auch Musik oder Literatur bieten hier viele Möglichkeiten. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

In this paper, I deal with drama for children in Bohemia. In its first part, I try to outline particularities of drama for children, their reflections in time, and possible influence of the drama on children. In the second part, I focus on Divadlo v Dlouhé which regularly devotes its presentations to children. I deal more thoroughly with presentations by Jan Borna called Malá vánoční povídka aneb Jak jsem se ztratil (Short Christmas Tale, or How I Got Lost), Kdyby prase mělo křídla (If Pigs Had Wings), and Myška z bříška (Small Mouse from a Tummy). I focus on dominant elements and individual parts of the presentations and reactions of children to them. This paper also consists of two dialogs with authors ? director Jan Borna and actor Martin Matejka ? and of pieces of art created by the young spectators based on the presentations viewed.

Čichovský, Jan ; Rakušanová, Marie (advisor) ; Bydžovská, Lenka (referee)
Meditation in the works of the Czech masters in the 20th century The personal imaginations a meditations of artist discovering their spiritual way through the art are mostly the point of this work. Introduction of this work expresses the general problematic of the spiritual streams, which had influenced the visual art, and especially particular groups and streams like for example antroposophy, theosophy or Rosencrucian's philosophy which had directly toutched the artistic activities at the beginning of the 20th century. The real body of my work is the selection from the spiritual oeuvre by the authors Rudolf Adámek and František Bílek who, as a minotity among the artists, followed the way of the Christian mystic which was the common feature of these two artists. My work wants to show the way how the artists hand over the spiritual message of the invisible world and how they corporealize it by means of the painting. Watching of the most inner dreams and longings of the mystic should be used as a mean for better understanding of the art piece and specific symbolic which is used by each artist. Their personal visions are important as well. My work wants to complete selected meanings of the symbolistic art dealing with the mystical themes and meditation as the mean to gain the cognition and also to...

CZECH NATURALISTIC RURAL DRAMA IN POSTMODERN PRODUCTIONS
Pokorný, Vít ; VEDRAL, Jan (advisor) ; FRANZ, Vladimír (referee)
This thesis analyses several plays of postmodern Czech naturalistic rural drama. By using comprehensive analysis and numerous examples, the work deals with the key question why traditional realistic dramas based on the mimetic principles are so attractive for the nonconformist and provocative authors, generally known as postmodernists.The work introduces the term postmodernism as a new philosophical way of seeing Euro-American civilization but also as an artistic style, which gives these thoughts an aesthetical basis in the context of Czech and also world history and culture. To get the essential knowledge of the topic, the main principles of realistic and naturalistic poetics are introduced. The work is trying to find an answer to the question ask above by analysing seven plays of postmodern Czech naturalistic rural drama. The analysis is based on experience of spectators and readers and also numerous examples from postmodern literature, film, fine art and music. The key factor of this analysis is the conflict of archetypal human essence and today often discussed absence of transpersonal order, which affects humans even against their will. The interpreted texts work with the topics of human struggle with love, faith, responsibility and compassion, which seem to be very attractive for the postmodern artists. These kinds of texts can give us an evidence of the epoch we live in. Whether the personal freedom ruined human faith in some greater sense or the sexual revolution actually buried the metaphysical essence of love. As an author, I came to the conclusion, that discussed plays demonstrates a postmodern human as a schizophrenic being, denying under the influence of general moral status existence of universally valid order, in spite of seeking this order in its soul desperately. Introducing my own concept of “the great second”, I try to defend my conviction, that in this exhausting struggle, the art can be for human desired, purifying and fulfilling power
