Possibilities of integrating Art Education with the Czech Language and Literature Education
Kohl, Lukáš ; Fišerová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Fulková, Marie (referee)
The thesis deals with the possibilities of integrating art education and Czech language and literature education. It is divided into two parts - theoretical and practical. In the theoretical part both subjects are introduced. The chapters devoted to art education deal with the factors that may influence its position in Czech schools. These chapters also deal with the main areas that art education is focused on (fine arts and visual culture) and with the didactic approaches that can be applied in art education. The chapters about Czech language and literature education describe its three components (language education, literature education and communication and style education) and relate them to the content of art education. In the first section of the practical part of this thesis, specific school activities of an interdisciplinary nature are proposed. Also, general principles are suggested on the basis of which a teaching unit integrating art education with Czech language and literature education can be built. In the second section, a plan for a teaching unit on the topic of illustration is presented, followed by a record of two implementations of the planned teaching unit, in which pedagogical action research was carried out to improve and streamline future teaching. Reflection on the teaching...

A Split Character in Literature and Film
KAVKA, Jan
This bachelor's work investigates the concept of dichotomous characters in both literature and film adaptations. The focus lies on specific portrayals of character dichotomy within narratives, examining how the presence of such characters impacts the perception of the fictional world they inhabit. Additionally, the work delves into the broader issue of the distinctions between the language used in literature and film, exploring the scope and limitations of narrative translation between these two mediums. A central aspect of this exploration will be the function and split nature of characters within literary and cinematic narratives, demonstrating how these elements can significantly influence the interpretation of a given work.

Kryštofová, Vendula ; Čeňková, Jana (advisor) ; Maňák, Vratislav (referee)
Literary reviews have changed considerably in the current fluid era and are still changing. This is due to new media, and especially social networks, where anyone can become a reviewer and professionalism and knowledge of literary scholarship is no longer needed as it used to be. Therefore, this thesis discusses the transformation of literary reviewing in the age of social media by examining the form, congruence and differences of professional reviews in cultural and social periodicals and instagram posts containing book reviews. The aim of this thesis was to find out what similarities or differences there are between reviews written by literary critics and book reviews posted on Instagram by ordinary users. The evaluation was carried out by analysing several professional reviews and several book posts on Instagram on three selected titles, namely Ostrov by Bianca Bell, Mezipřistání by Matej Hořava and Probudím se na Šibuji by Anna Cima, and then comparing these findings. The research section shows how literary critics and Instagram users express themselves in their reviews, what they consider important to convey, what form of review they write, and whether there is a difference in their final rating. Finally, the final findings of the practical section are formulated, including a description of...

Everything I ever wanted to write but was afraid to draw
Polák, Tadeáš ; Havlík, Vladimír (referee) ; Vlková, Veronika (advisor)
The bachelor's thesis takes the form of an author's book called Pesůňova cesta and is a colourfully illustrated story of a five-day journey of a fictional animal, half dog and half horse - pesůň. In the twenty-seven short chapters of the book he discovers the world and himself. The book oscillates between genres and collage-like changes of form, and it is impossible to say clearly what age group of readers it is aimed at, in the words of the writer Kurt Vonnegut, so perhaps "anyone who might be interested". The work is the result of the author's long-standing interest in the written word, drawing and illustration, and self-publishing books and zines.

The image of death, dying and mourning in modern German-language literature for children and adolescents, using the example of selected picture books
Vorlová, Kateřina ; Markvartová, Eva (advisor) ; Bučková, Tamara (referee)
The diploma thesis focuses on the theme of death, dying and grief in modern German picture books. The theoretical basis of this thesis is, in addition to the chapter on death, its concept in literature, the children's world and theology, a chapter on picture books and the afterlife from the perspective of world religions. In the practical part, selected works are interpreted and compared with each other based on their content. The aim of the thesis is to prove that death has never been a taboo subject in children's literature, but on the contrary, a rich subject, which is popularly depicted. Among other things, the thesis shows that each narrator and protagonist views death in a slightly different way, treats and evaluates it differently. Nevertheless, the final reconciliation is thematized in all texts. KEYWORDS Death, dying, literature, children, adolescents, consolation, sorrow, picture books

Gender differences in reading habits among children
Martinů, Veronika ; Pavlík, Petr (advisor) ; Knotková - Čapková, Blanka (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with children's relationship to books and reading and, above all, possible differences between girls and boys in their approach to reading. Its goal is to find out what the reading culture is like among children between the ages of ten and sixteen. The work also aims to find out what, if any, differences there are in reading between girls and boys. This was determined through a quantitative method, namely a survey research. Respondents are children and young people attending lower gymnasiums or the second level of primary schools in various places in the Czech Republic, which were randomly selected. The main themes of the work are differences in the frequency and popularity of reading, as well as the preferences of children and young people when choosing individual books, the influence of school, family and the respondents' close surroundings on their reading habits. The work reveals the differences in reading between girls and boys and shows whether children's reading culture is declining or the opposite.
