Lifetime in one company. Elektropřístroj Písek. Survey of Czech society in 60. - 80. years.
Schwubová, Martina ; Hlaváček, Jiří (advisor) ; Krátká, Lenka (referee)
Abstrat: The aim of this thesis is to reconstruct the everyday life of employees of Elektropřístroj Písek, by using the methods of oral history and other archival sources. Every single period of time was affected by building a socialist society and its consolidation. Helping the farmers by patronage of JZD was later replaced by a companionship with a soviet enterprise. Also work and social conditions were changing during particular periods of the comunist regime. A democratisation process and a more free society that culminated in the year of Prague Spring, which was reflected both in employees' initiative and in the company organization and its economy, was characteristic of the sixties of the last century. The August invasion ment a sudden change and the following period of condition consolidation completely suppressed liberal tendencies of previous development. The whole period is completed by stagnation in the eighties, atempts of ecomonic revival after M. Gorbačov's appointment, the revolution in 1989 and denationalization of the company during main privatization. Key words: industrial enterprise, central planning, normalization, transformation, oral history, everydayness

Named Entity Normalization in Czech Texts
Kubát, Petr ; Vidová Hladká, Barbora (advisor) ; Popel, Martin (referee)
Named entities are collocations used to refer to real world objects in text. Named entity normalization is a process of generating the basic form for a given named entity. The thesis is focused on creating a rule- based procedure for named entity normalization in Czech texts. The process of designing individual rules is closely examined. Stress is laid on the fact that each rule is motivated by entities from real-world texts. Additionally, some aspects of Czech language syntax are analyzed in order to achieve the highest possible accuracy. Based on the theoretical description of the procedure, a normalization application is implemented, and its accuracy is evaluated by comparison with manually normalized entities. Together with already existing tools for automatic named entity recognition, it is possible to use this normalizer in other text processing tasks, such as machine translation, searching and categorization, etc. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Original Czech Drama and Contemporary Drama in 70s of 20th Century
Šiller, Jiří ; Mocná, Dagmar (advisor) ; Peterka, Josef (referee) ; Brožová, Věra (referee)
Resumé This academical work called The Original Czech Drama and Contemporary Drama in 70s of 20th century looks back at 70s as the first ten years of Normalisation. The period was restricting in the field of literature. The authors could not write freely. The regime put borders to limit their work. The original drama shows how the culture acts under pressure and without freedom. Obviously, the literature describing current times was disadvantaged opposed to the literature which describes "get away" themes. The conditions for theatres were very strict, mainly for new plays which had to be approved by the regime. There were some improvisation but the reaction of the audience was not easy to predict. In this decade the authors pretend to believe in the ideas of Socialism. They write about the advantages socialistic development. Only in this were the authors were guaranteed that their work is going to be published and performed. This is the difference between 50s of 20th century, when the authors really believed in rightness of the socialistic development. Nevertheless, their beliefs were slowly broken and their private lives strongly influenced. The general concept of undistinguished greyness which means the official work of Normalisation period was opposed to work of some authors. These work were variable,...

Rokosová, Alena ; Schindler-Wisten, Petra (advisor) ; Krátká, Lenka (referee)
The thesis, 'Marriage in the period of normalisation: Stories of Women who got married between 1970 and 1989', focuses on the wedding rate in Czechoslovakia during normalisation period, 20 years after Soviet occupation. The analysis is done in the context of governmental family and population politics and endeavours of normalisation regime to support marriage and natality rate. The present study describes measures which the government introduced in the 70's and their justification. The focus falls also on the influence of demographic behaviour and how this behaviour was unique and exceptional during normalisation period. The whole study is based on the fact that personal testimony of narrators can contribute to an understanding of the human aspect of our history. The qualitative research method used was oral-historical interviews recording the experience of 6 women. The study analyses their decision making factors to enter the institution of marriage, what was young families' economic situation and how they perceived and exploited state support system for young families. This thesis helps understanding women in this specific period of normalisation as well as the period itself, given the fact that in the 70's and 80's the betrothed couples were the youngest and marriage rate was the highest in the...

Miloš Josef Pulec and Old Catholic Church
Wagner, David ; Foltýn, Dušan (advisor) ; Míšková, Alena (referee)
This thesis focuses on Dr. Miloš Josef Pulec as a personality, and particularly on his relationship to the Old Catholic Church. We will see Pulec first as a newly ordained priest, then suspended, then as a priest of the Prague parish, an influential man behind the Old Catholic Church synod meetings, and finally in the eighties also an episcopal administrator. He played out an important role in the crisis of 1969-72, which in effect led to break-up of the church into an official and an underground one and to several problems which caused the church significant losses in property as well as number of members. Pulec was accused of being closely in contact with the authorities and misusing these contacts to solve conflicts in the church administration. Pulec was not only a clergyman, his works focused on many other fields: he was interested in history, anthropology, pragensia and mycology. His life's legacy is for now mostly seen in a very negative light - the goal of the thesis is not to intentionally change this view, but rather to describe the influence of an individual on an organization, and his reflection in the history.

The Velvet revolution in Nachod. Its "winners" and "losers"
Škoda, Jáchym ; Valeš, Lukáš (advisor) ; Urbášek, Pavel (referee)
This thesis deals with the problem of the Velvet revolution in a small provincial town called Náchod. My purpose is to describe the political situation before the revolution, during it and after the revolution ended. I used two methods for my research. First of them was regular text analysis of documents in archives and the second source I used was the method of Oral history. Oral history enriches us with knowledge of living witnesses who help us understand reasons, motivations and feelings of people who took part in an important part of our history, which Velvet revolution surely is. To understand them even better I shortly described their life stories and their position during the revolution. I made life story interviews with 4 members of the Czechoslovak Communist Party and with 5 members of the Civic Forum. So we can hear opinions of both considered sides. At the end of the thesis I compared my conclusions with the conclusion doc. PhDr. Lukáš Valeš, Ph.D. made in his dissertation describing Velvet revolution in a small provincial town Klatovy. At the end I came to a conclusion that Velvet revolution changed political status of Czechoslovakia and its economy but the same people remained powerful.

Vladimír Dvořák and Czechoslovak TV's Entertainment Programms Department over 1968 - 1976
Hroncová, Alexandra ; Klimeš, Ivan (advisor) ; Přádná, Stanislava (referee)
(in English): Vladimír Dvořák (14 May, 1925 - 28 December, 1999) is mainly known to the public as the presenter of Televarieté, a TV entertainment programme, and older generations may also remember him as a music programme presenter and an author of lyrics to pop-music songs of the 1960s. However, this limited perception calls for a correction, as Vladimír Dvořáka was, without exaggeration, a universally talented man. As this text aims to show, Dvořák was strong in fine art and literary disciplines (wrote a number of librettos), as well as on the script-editing, programme presenting and acting sides, and all these artistic talents were sheltered with and maybe even shadowed by his organisational skills (completely unknown to the public) combined with enormous proactivity and high ambitions. During his presence at ČST Vladimír Dvořák created a TV entertainment development strategy that he worked on until his death. He was diplomatic and creative at the same time, and he introduced a number of very successful TV formats to feature many big names, at least those tolerated by the totalitarian regime. Vladimír Dvořák knew how to manoeuvre his way through the clearly demarcated world of communist TV broadcasting without having to make dirty compromises with the regime's officials. Moreover, although he...
