Postural function and its influence on singing performance
Janů, Karolína ; JONÁŠOVÁ, Jana (advisor) ; KAUPOVÁ, Helena (referee)
The thesis aims at the classical singing technique within the context of the postural function and the body posture. The center of attention is the question, how does the position of the body taken while singing influences the technical and sound quality of the professional singing performance, considering the close relationship between the classical singing technique and the physiological process of breathing, as well as the close link between breathing and the posture. This topic is being seen from the kinesiological point of view, as well as from the singing point of view and the acquired knowledge is afterwards being applied on the particular vocal piece.

Forms and challenges of multiculturalism in the 21st century in the western context
Janů, Karolína ; Müller, Karel (advisor) ; Dvořáková, Vladimíra (referee)
The thesis focuses on the subject of multicultural coexistence with the stress on the western European and north European countries. It proposes the main thesis, if this multicultural coexistence, in its present form, is or is not functioning, and if there is the potential for future also. The question also is, if there really comes the so called "crisis of multiculturalism" and so there would be substantive transformation necessary in the future. As the background for this research will serve the theoretical part of the thesis, which tries to show the different approaches to the multicultural phenomenon on the academical ground and their emergence. The second empirical part will illustrate, on the example of three European countries Sweden, Germany and France, how these theoretical models can appear in the reality.
