The Analysis of the Portrayal of the Region in the Works of the Teschen Silesian Writers via Kubisz's Writings
Kurová, Jana ; Poslední, Petr (advisor) ; Pátková, Jana (referee)
The goal of this thesis entitled The Analysis of the Portrayal of the Region in the Works of the Teschen Silesian Writers via Kubisz's Writings is to bring the life's work of Jan Kubisz-known writer, educator, and community organizer-into public discourse, and to demonstrate the aspects which have influenced both his creations and a Teschenian mentality. We begin with presenting a historical research of the region whose basis rests in Kubisz's works, primarily in Pamiętnik starego nauczyciela. We also discuss the literary characteristics of Teschenian Silesia in order to pinpoint distinctive local tendencies and issues. We proceed to examine Kubisz's approach to Germanization of the region and his handling of nationalism. The analysis of the Teschenian anthem illustrates Kubisz's legacy for the future generations. In order to facilitate the understanding of the terms used in this thesis, the additional chapter outlines their meanings and connotations. Finally, we show the impact of Kubisz's works on local population and its understanding of identity by introducing separate study and interpreting its outcomes. Keywords Teschenian Silesia, Region, Kubisz, the Issue of Nationality, Nationalism, Memorial, Identity

The entry of lead into the brain after experimental administration of lead acetate
Patková, Jana ; Žurmanová, Jitka (referee) ; Vojtíšek, Maxmilián (advisor)
Lead is a ubiquitous environmental toxin that induces a broad range of fysiological, biochemical and behavioral dysfunctions in man and in experimental animals. The present study is focused on the effect of lead on the central nervous system, which is considered to be most deleterious, especially alterations of cognitive and behavioral functions. New concepts in the neurotoxicology of lead include advances in understanding mechanisms of lead-induced damage to the nervous system, like induction of oxidative stress. In the experimental part the entry of lead into the brain of mature mice after long-term exposure to lead acetate (PbAc) and the influence of lead on cognitive function and motoric skills of exposed animals were observed. Cognitive function was tested in Morris water maze, motoric tests were performed on rotating cylinder and horizontal wire. Healthy and neurodefective Lurcher mutant mice were used. Further the influence of lead on the development of oxidative stress in the brain by fluorescent spectroscopy was studied. Lipofuscin-like pigments were used as indicators of oxidative stress. The prominent accumulation of lead in the brain of exposed animals as compared to controls was observed after the long-term exposure of mice to PbAc. No changes in motoric or cognitive functions in healthy or...

The concepts of literary space in the Slovak prose of the 70s of the 20th century
Pátková, Jana ; Chmel, Rudolf (advisor) ; Sabolová, Olga (referee) ; Machala, Lubomír (referee)
The collection of five interpretative essays deals with various concepts of home and its different spaee speeifieations in the officially published prose of the 70s of the last century in Slovakia. Through the analysis of the literary spaee we enter an unfathomed region whose comprehension may also change - to a great extent - the existing sight of the official production of the "normalisation period". When interpreting the individual texts, the emphasis was placed on observing especially the common features of the literary space. That is the reason why even reiterating ehapter titles were chosen (horizontal and vertical forms of the space, open or closed space, transitions points, topos of the journey periphery and forms of border, etc.). By their synthesis we may eome to the eonelusion that the seleeted authors (Dušan Dušek, Július Baleo, Ladislav Ballek and Stanislav Rakús) are arguing especially against the diverse representations of the power through different concepts of the space. Objective of my work is to draw attention to some of the fundamental paradigmatic prineiples ofmodelling the literary spaee in the Slovak prose ofthe 70s. Apart from the thematie escape of the authors into the history, the motif of home and childhood belong to the most discussed problems ofthe beginning of the...

Modern National Novel in Central Europe
Kúdelka, Peter ; Chmel, Rudolf (advisor) ; Pátková, Jana (referee)
in English The papers contain a finding of the national literature in between novels in the Central Europe at the age of modernism in 20s and 30s o 20th century. The idea definition of national novel in the literatures of Central Europe is difficult and complicated process. This papers work with literal texts as a part of national literature with polish novel Przedwiośnie by Stefan Zeromsky, hungarian novel Édes Anna by Deszo Kosztolanyi, slovakian novel Cesta životom by Ladislav Nádasi-Jégé, czech novel Osudy dobrého vojáka Švejka by Jaroslav Hašek and austrian novel Mann ohne Eingeschafen by Robert Musil. The finding is divided into two parts - first is finding of national novel - second is about national character. Both situations are actualized with new terms - novel of the nation and character of the nation. Both literary terms correspond to objects that are not directly denouncing the life of the nation, but produces its main ideas and identification. The slovakian and the hungarian novel focus on the struggle of individual characters with society and their new status. In the contrary to the austrian and the czech novel reveal the principle of applying national characteristics in literary philosophical swirl. The polish novel is stranded somewhere in between these two types of novel. Key...
