Jewish Feminism in Interwar Czechoslovakia
Efrati, Michaela ; Čapková, Kateřina (advisor) ; Kříhová, Zuzana (referee)
This bachelor thesis examines the period between the First and Second World War, with a focus on Jewish women's associations in interwar Czechoslovakia. The thesis analyses the development of these associations, their main programmes and their interrelations with the feminist movement both within and outside Czechoslovakia. It looks at the contacts of the leading figures of the feminist movements and their mutual support, or their different views on the programmes of the movement. With an emphasis on a transnational perspective, it examines the achievements of the Women`s International Zionist Organization (WIZO) in the areas of international and local aid and the results of their efforts. The research is based on an analysis of archival materials and contemporary prints and documents. A key figure in this study is Marie Schmolkova, a prominent figure in Czech Jewish feminism. The thesis attempts to identify the differences in the development of Czech Jewish feminism and Czech feminism and examines when and how the two movements came together and what the result of the collaboration was.

Comprehensive child developmenz in preschool upbringing
Vlasáková, Kristýna ; Komárková, Tereza (advisor) ; Swoboda, Jaroslava (referee)
This bachelor thesis is comprehensively devoted to the entire preschool period. It primarily focuses on child development where all branches of development are described, always in relation to a specific age period. The interweaving of knowledge about development into other areas closely related to the profession of a kindergarten teacher is also included. A closer look at developmental areas can be much more useful than it might seem at first glance. It makes it possible to solve complex problems such as professional burnout or issues of appropriate motivation. It makes it possible to improve communication between all participants in the educational process. It helps all teachers in getting to know children and choosing a suitable educational approach. It helps teachers in choosing activities. Last but not least, it helps to understand the world through children's eyes, which is essential for all educators who want only happy children in kindergartens. This and much more can be read in this bachelor thesis. Key words: Kindergarten, development, preschool period, upbringing, education, school preparedness and readiness, communication, burnout, diagnosis, motivation, activities

Double negation of the nene- type (nenedostal, nenepatrný) in Czech
Hartmanová, Lucie ; Dittmann, Robert (advisor) ; Šimík, Radek (referee)
This bachelor thesis examines double negation in Czech expressed by repeating the negative particle ne- twice in immediate succession. For the research, we aimed to find as many examples of words with this type of double negation as possible, gathering material from selected Czech dictionaries, written language corpora, the Lexical database of humanistic and baroque Czech and the Kramerius digital library (version 5). After collecting the excerpts we conducted a quantitative analysis according to individual parts of speech, focusing furthermore on the semantics of double negation and taking into account competing means of double negation expressed by two successive negative particles. Particular attention is paid to the development of this type of negation in biblical translation where its occurrences in Old or Early Modern Czech translations have been detected. Finally, we summarized the results of the research and offered possible starting points for further research.

Towards the Sound of Literature. Examining the Inherent Voice of Literary Works
Navrátilová, Eva ; Bílek, Petr (advisor) ; Kaplický, Martin (referee) ; Kroča, David (referee)
Charles University Faculty of Arts Department of Czech and Comparative Literature Philology (P7310) - General and Comparative Literature (P0232D090050) Abstract (EN) Towards the Sound of Literature Examining the Inherent Voice of Literary Works Za zvukem literatury Zkoumání inherentního hlasu literárních děl Mgr. & MgA. Eva Navrátilová Prague, 2024 Supervisor: Prof. PhDr. Petr A. Bílek, CSc. The dissertation strives for a comprehensive and at the same time universal con- cept of the topic of sound and literature. It is done so in various ways and in diverse contexts. The text relies on the inseparability of the auditory perception from the reading process itself (with certain exceptions, of course), both in the sense of un- derstanding the content through its sound, and in perceiving the sound structure of the text as the reader's individual implicit and immediate interpretation of the work. The concept of sound is in the vast majority of cases specified to the phenomenon of voice and speech, i.e. sounds that are eminently human. For the sake of systematic argumentation, the dissertation is divided into three parts. The first one in a form of a "cycle" deals with basic literary-theoretical concepts such as narrator and speech of the characters, to which actual speech is added as well as the concept of...

The importance of different sources and sequencing protocols in increasing the accuracy of NGS analysis in diagnostic applications
Kvapilová, Kateřina ; Kozmik, Zbyněk (advisor) ; Piherová, Lenka (referee) ; Slabý, Ondřej (referee)
1 ABSTRACT Continued advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology, such as capacity, speed, and reduced cost per sequenced base, revolutionize personalized medicine and bring genomics into routine clinical practice. Nevertheless, NGS is still under rapid development, and the variability of sequencing protocols and validation procedures is one of its current bottlenecks. This thesis aimed to study the influence of different sample sources and NGS protocols (NGS library construction-sequencing-data analysis) on the accuracy of NGS analysis in diagnostic applications. In the first study, performed during the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, we developed NGS protocols suitable for a whole genome analysis of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Subsequently, in the second study, we examined the suitability of human saliva-derived gDNA for genomic/genetic analysis of selected variant types compared to traditional blood-derived gDNAusing validated NGS protocol and statistical comparison of the obtained data. Whole genome analysis of the SARS-CoV-2 genome was performed using two captured- based approaches and one amplicon-based approach to study the quality and effectivity of the respective NGS protocols. Synthetic controls were employed to verify the accuracy and specificity of the developed NGS protocols. We proved that...

Bottleneck identification for constraint relaxation in resource-constrained project scheduling
Nedbálek, Lukáš ; Švancara, Jiří (advisor) ; Bulín, Jakub (referee)
In modern manufacturing systems, production planners create schedules by iteratively obtaining proposed schedules and adjusting input parameters to satisfy multiple, often competing, optimization goals. The goal of this thesis is to address the problem of reduc- ing the tardiness of a particular manufacturing order in an obtained schedule, which is a practical problem commonly arising in production scheduling. We do this by identifying bottlenecks in the schedule and proposing relaxations to constraints related to the iden- tified bottlenecks. We develop two methods for this purpose, both utilizing constraint programming. The first baseline method adapts existing approaches from the literature and proposes general relaxations. The second method identifies potential improvements in relaxed versions of the problem and proposes relaxations targeting the specific man- ufacturing order. Numerical experiments show that the baseline method achieves great improvements for small costs. while the second method is more reliable in achieving improvements across various problem instances.

Behavioral Genetics of Mate Preferences
Fischer, Martin ; Štěrbová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Bosman, Dita (referee)
Mate preferences are a multidimensional set of mental representations about the characteristics of a potential partner. The aim of this theoretical work is to present the current state of knowledge in the field of inheritance of mate preferences. While there have been several studies that have attempted to estimate the contribution of genetic components and (shared and non-shared) environment to mate preferences and mate choice, the current research suggests the key role of gene-environment interactions. This thesis provides a brief introduction to behavioral genetics and introduces the basic principles of heritability of mate preferences. All studies previously conducted on humans are dealt with in greater detail. However, the environment appears to play a more significant role than direct genetic influences. Consequently, other mechanisms of ontogeny of mate preferences, of which this environment may be composed (i.e. imprinting-like effect, associative learning, social learning, active parental influence on mate choice), are presented. The thesis is concluded with a synthesis of findings on individual mechanisms of the emergence and development of mate preferences and their potential interactions. Each mechanism may explain a relatively small part of the emergence of mate preferences, yet they...

Germanisms in the novel The End of Punk in Helsinki by Jaroslav Rudiš
Müllerová, Michaela ; Vachková, Marie (advisor) ; Šemelík, Martin (referee)
This thesis analyzes the Germanisms in Rudiš's novel "The End of Punk in Helsinki". The aim is to describe the individual Germanisms in terms of their function in the text, their comprehensibility, and the subjective perception of their use in contemporary Czech. Subsequently, some Germanisms were also analyzed in the Czech language corpus InterCorp and SYN, whereby their frequency and the stylistic markers found in the dictionaries were verified. The analysis and the corpus research showed in most cases the correspondence of the stylistic markers found in the dictionaries with those in the novel or the corpus, as well as stylistic effects that, among others, contribute to a closer characterization of the speaker from the regional or social point of view.
