Morgensteinová, Denisa ; Čeňková, Jana (advisor) ; Novotný, David Jan (referee)
The bachelor thesis deals with the analytical evaluation of the critical reaction to Skvorecky's novel The Cowards in the 50s and 60s of the 20th century. These two decades have been specific by its political and social atmosphere. Characteristics of the 50s and 60s are different and therefore different specificities of the two decades are reflected in the critical reactions. In the first part the author focuses on the creation of a theoretical framework, which is then used as the basis for the analysis of reviews. In the first three chapters of the work she focuses on a biography of Josef Skvorecky (and how it was affected by edition of his debut novel), as well as the status of the novel in the context of Czech post-war literature. The important element in the analysis of reviews of The Cowards is primarily the context of the historical period and with it the changing societal values. Texts created on this basis have at one time denounced The Cowards and other time praised it as a modern and quality work. At the end, the author summarizes the facts affecting the formation and character of reviews. In light of the lessons learned then closes media analysis with a commentary.

The media image of danish director lars von trier in contrast to popular and professional magazine
Šára, Filip ; Novotný, David Jan (advisor) ; Štoll, Martin (referee)
The topic of the bachelor thesis is "Media Image of The Danish Director Lars von Trier in Contrast of A Professional and A Popular Magazine." Media image is a very broad term that deserves a more detailed explanation. It contains several aspects of the media as well as cultural and social areas: a construction of the text, a way of how to work with information, services for the readers, the elements of art journalism or the principles of the proper use of the Czech language. Last but not least, objectivity, the semiotic semantic encoding of texts, the policy of selected printed periodicals and ultimately, the personal and the professional life of the films' creator including his works. The thesis represents the controversial filmmaker Lars von Trier in the context of his work and personality. Emphasis is placed on journalistic work at the weekly periodical Reflex and the quarterly magazine Film and Time (Film a doba). Selection is not random - its purpose is to highlight the diversity of styles of the popular and specialised periodicals, as indicated by the term "contrast" in the title of the bachelor thesis. Analysis of individual materials, mentioning von Trier (and consequent approaches) is the core of the thesis. My goal is to summarize the results of reporting about the director and the...

Diversity of Neofabraea species causing bull's eye rot in the Czech Republic
Pešicová, Kamila ; Novotný, David (advisor) ; Mazáková, Jana (referee)
Neofabraea is a genus of an important plant pathogenic fungi having worldwide appearance. Four Neofabraea species are responsible for bull's eye rot of pome fruits. The aim of this thesis was to investigate which of these species occur in the Czech Republic. 81 isolates were collected during a two- year period and they were identified using PCR fingerprinting (primers ERIC 1R and M13-core) and DNA sequencing (ITS, mtSSU and tub2). The results showed that species N. alba, N. perennans and Cryptosporiopsis kienholzii occur in the Czech Republic. According to available information, this is the second record of C. kienholzii in Europe. One isolate (KP4) failed to be identified as any of the species. KP4 is very close to C. kienholzii, but it can be distinguished both biologically and genetically. Furthermore, the aggressiveness of individual species was compared.N. perennans and strain KP4 proved to be most aggressive, the least aggressive is C. kienholzii. Two N. alba strains (KP36 and KP37) isolated from healthy apple fruit and leaf are pathogenic for apple fruits. Keywords: aggressiveness, Cryptosporiopsis kienholzii, Dermateaceae, Helotiales, apple tree, Malus, PCR fingerprinting, postharvest diseases Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Mycobiota of energy sorrel
Janďourková, Hana ; Novotný, David (advisor) ; Nováková, Alena (referee)
Energy sorrel (Rumex patientia L. x Rumex tianschanicus A. Los.) is a plant with a high yield of above-ground biomass. Because of this, it is grown as energy crop, but in Ukraine it is also important forage crop. Mycobiota has not been examined, even though energy sorrel is grown in the Czech Republic experimentally since 1992 (in agricultural operations since 2001). The aims of this thesis were: to determine the composition of mycobiota of healthy plants and of mycobiota associated with leaf and stem spots, to verify whether fungi isolated from spots can cause these spots and if previously isolated fungus Phomopsis sp. can cause spots. Fungi were cultivated on 2% malt extract agar and then morphologically determined. From representative strains were isolated DNA and sequences of the ITS region were compared with the GenBank databases, this verified the morphological determination and the sterile species were determined. In total 24 morphotypes of endophytic fungi were cultivated from healthy plants. The most common species were: Clonostachys rosea f. rosea, Cladosporium cladosporioides, Rhizopus arrhizus var. arrhizus, Alternaria alternata and Acremonium strictum. From the spots were isolated in total 29 morphotypes, the dominant species were: A. strictum, Aureobasidium pullulans, C....

Publicistic style elements in czech television'documentary series "13th chamber"
Štefánková, Aneta ; Štoll, Martin (advisor) ; Novotný, David Jan (referee) ; Šoltys, Otakar (referee)
The aim of my thesis is to define the publicistic style elements of characteristics within Czech television's documentary series "13th Chamber". The analysis section is based on episodes that were broadcasted within the first five years of the series between 2006- 2011. I found that the program has more features of a television journalism program than a television documentary in which the creators claimed. The project is a typical example of the terminological genre confusion of Czech television. In the theoretical section of my thesis, the concepts of television journalism, television documentary, television format and the differences of cycle and television series are discussed in detail. In context with the theme, I have designed a program structure in which the principle production, choice of topics, individuals parts and authors who participated in the preparation and shooting are involved. The program structure includes a practical component with specific parts in which I discuss the pre-defined publicistic elements. These elements are mandatory especially given structure, the presence of journalists, expert talks, the use of comments and interviews. The aim is to look at the agenda in terms of audience, the degree of fun and bulvarity within the program structure. In terms of resources, I...

Fungi of the energetically important plants
Janďourková, Hana ; Novotný, David (advisor) ; Marková, Jaroslava (referee)
This thesis gives a literature review of fungi of energy crops. The most important phytopathogenic and endophytic fungi of these plants are mentioned, with special reference to genus Fusarium. Energy crops are plants growing for phytoenergy. Species suitable for this purpose were chosen especially for great production of biomas with a cost. Various plant species are used for this pupose. Little information of mycobiota of the energy crops is known in comparison with traditional crops. Better are known phytopathogenic than endophytic fungi of energy crops. In my master's thesis I will study endophytic mycobiota of Miscanthus sinensis, Rumex patientia x R. tianschanicus and Sorghum, excerption of mycobiota of these plants was carry out with special attention. Anamorphic genus Fusarium belongs to the most important phytopathogenic and endophytic generas of herbs, therefore closer attention was paid to this taxa. Key words: phytopathogenic fungi, endophytes, energy crops, phytoenergy, Fusarium
