Empathy in the Context of Edith Stein´s Philosophy
 ŠTORKÁNOVÁ, Radka
The aim of the thesis is to dive deeper into the early philosophical work of Edith Stein, especially with regard to her dissertation thesis On the Problem of Empathy. She defended it in 1916 before Edmund Husserl and its main contribution is to open the question of the possibility of mediating the knowledge of the world among subjects. In her first work, Stein focuses on the act of empathy itself, on the constitution of a psychophysical individual, and she asks about their conditions and possibilities of empathy and our own self-concept. This thesis will follow the line of her thinking in detail and it will try to grasp her contribution (comprehensively and in context) to topics such as intersubjectivity and constitution of our self and experience, on the border of the phenomenological method. The affiliated issues, including those related to empathy, will not be left aside either.

David Kellogg Lewis' possible worlds
 ŠTORKÁNOVÁ, Radka
This bachelor thesis deals with philosophical theory of possible worlds which are on the border between logic and metaphysics. The aim of the thesis is to introduce and critically evaluate modal realism of the American philosopher David Kellog Lewis. At first the thesis defines what the possible worlds are and what their use is. In this case basis can be already found in pre-philosophical intuition regarding possibility. The next section focuses on the central points of Lewis' understanding of possible worlds. His greatly original concept, including the fact that other possible worlds exist as well as ours, naturally brings many difficulties. The nature of these problems is discussed in the last section.
