Letters from Milada Horáková - their path and media coverage following 1989
Váchová, Nina ; Groman, Martin (advisor) ; Vlček, Tomáš (referee)
This bachelor thesis focuses on the letters from Milada Horáková, their journey from writing to getting to the hands of her family and their publication, and the associated post-1989 media coverage. The thesis thus aims to describe the different stages of the letters' path and to uncover a part of their journey not known to the public. Furthermore, it sets out to analyse the post-1989 media coverage of the letters up to the present day, using qualitative content analysis of documentary films and series that mention the last letters and were produced after 1989, and relevant national print media articles published after 1989. Along with this, it compares the description of the path of the letters in the analysed material to the one in this thesis. The introduction contains a historical context in which the topic is set, the life of Milada Horáková, and the political trial, therefore the events leading up to the writing of the letters. The following chapters cover the contents of each letter and their publication in 1990. The journey of the letters is further detailed in the thesis, along with the fact that the letters were secretly taken from the General Prosecutor's Office and safely hidden by JUDr. Lubomír Štěpán for twenty years, before their handover to the bereaved family, information not yet...
The Sacred and the Beginnings of Cubism
Jahnová, Kateřina ; Lyčka, Milan (advisor) ; Petříček, Miroslav (referee) ; Vlček, Tomáš (referee)
This dissertation deals with the relationship between the sacred and the cubism of Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. Through the analysis of images, it shows how the sacred is present in the main inspirational sources of Cubism, i.e., in the work of Paul Cézanne and in primitive art, and how it manifests itself in the early and later stages of Cubism. It also points out the affinity between Husserl's phenomenology and Cubism, which is manifested primarily from the analytical phase of Cubism onwards. The first chapter deals with the sources of inspiration of cubism, namely Paul Cézanne and primitive art. It explores elements of otherness and ugliness, mainly associated with the feeling of tremendum. In Cézanne's work it notes his relationship to the landscape, which it examines in connection with sacred space. Primitive art served as a parenthesis for Picasso, thanks to which he was able to look at things in a new way. The real breakthrough, however, comes with the creation of analytical cubism, for it is a picture of a radically different and new world, a world based on the subjectivity of its creator. The second chapter traces the chronological development of Cubism from the analytical period, through the invention of collage to the synthetic period. In doing so, it pays particular attention to...

Where do the limits of l'informe lie?
Hejný, Kryštof ; Konečný, Lubomír (advisor) ; Vlček, Tomáš (referee)
The present study centres on perceived blank space within research dedicated to czech ceramics of the second half of the twentieth century. Its purpose is to map and summarize the totality of published period discourse pertinent to the selected topic. Most forms of object oriented expression and production within fired clay medium generated throughout the period of immutability and economic centralization fall into categories defined by terminological adjacency to "non-fine art" education, industrial application and/or modernist material semantics. Study observes a historical, hence limited field whose horizon emerges via questions meaningfully unencumbered by partially mythologized experiences and overreliance on stereotypes in judgement of relative importance of concepts, events and goals. Those have insofar marred attempts for general interpretation. The issue of supplementarity or, in moral terms, inferiority of the medium ran an unsolved red line through the period discourse. Sociological advancement however, whose tools were curated consumption and a mixture of work ethic and esthetic, bracketed ceramic supplemental to industry. Its value was then judged by its adherence to original material dialectic (place of craft, or artistic means, in Theodor Adorno's Esthetic theory, ADORNO 1970). As...
Structural aspects of aesthetic visualinformation processing
Douchová, Veronika ; Nešetřil, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Klazar, Martin (referee) ; Vlček, Tomáš (referee)
Univerzita Karlova Filozofická fakulta Katedra logiky Obor: Logika Strukturální aspekty zpracování vizuální informace s estetickou složkou Structural aspects of aesthetic visual information processing Abstract Mgr. Veronika Douchová vedoucí (supervisor): prof. RNDr. Jaroslav Nešetřil, DrSc., 2022 Abstract In the thesis, we investigate and formulate a framework for analyzing certain aspects of aesthetics from a structural and mathematical perspective. We build on the results of neuroaesthetics-a (relatively new) field in neurol- ogy introduced by S. Zeki in 1990's-which links the process of seeing, and evaluating information with an aesthetic component, with the structure of the human brain. Several principles influencing aesthetic judgements were identified by neuroaesthetics and connected with the structure of the human brain, such as the notions of modularity, symmetry, harmony, or balance. We argue that these results provide an objective interpretative framework for an- alyzing certain aspects of visual information with an aesthetic component by means of mathematical methods. We apply these results to Birkhoff's aes- thetic measure, providing objective foundations for his theoretical methods, based on algebraic invariants for aesthetics. We follow up with a discussion of the theory of J. Nešetřil-which...
Hybrid materials with improved thermomechanical properties
Perchacz, Magdalena ; Beneš, Hynek (advisor) ; Vlček, Tomáš (referee) ; Brožek, Jiří (referee)
Epoxy resins have been broadly used in the industry for adhesives, laminates, coatings, composites, encapsulation of electronic devices, printed circuit boards, etc. Despite their excellent adhesion to different materials, heat and chemical resistance and good mechanical properties, they also exhibit few drawbacks like brittleness, high thermal expansion coefficient (CTE), poor resistance to crack initiation and growth. Therefore, the thesis is focused on the preparation of epoxy-silica hybrid materials exhibiting improved thermomechanical properties compared to the neat epoxides, without impairing their beneficial features. The main synthetic route of epoxy-silica hybrids' preparation has been the sol-gel process of alkoxysilanes, allowing either in-situ formation of high purity and homogeneity silica particles or creation of various siloxane structures in a form of liquid (sol) silica-based precursors. The sol-gel method, on one hand, helps to omit too high viscosity of nanofiller suspension and energy-intensive nanofiller dispergation problems, but on the other hand, is often associated with necessity to use solvents and to remove formed volatiles. Therefore, in the first part of the thesis, a simple solvent-free sol-gel procedure, enabling to minimize the side-effect of solvent evaporation and...
Security Policy of Neutral States After 9/11: Comparison of Selected European Countries
Vlček, Tomáš ; Karásek, Tomáš (advisor) ; Bahenský, Vojtěch (referee)
This bachelor's thesis compares Switzerland, Austria and Sweden as European neutral states and their activity in security policy. There are two dimensions for the comparison: peacekeeping dimension and counter-terrorism dimension. The time interval begins with the terrorist 9/11 attacks and continues to the present. In peacekeeping dimension the main focus is on contribution of units to peacekeeping missions. In counter-terrorism dimension the main focus is on strategy of global war on terror and strategy of combating terrorism. The result of this thesis is either confirmation or refutation of hypothesis about relationship between attitude to neutrality and activity in security policy. The assumption of this comparative study is that state with codified neutrality which is also mentioned in its foreign-security strategy is less active than state with non-codified neutrality not mentioned in its foreign-security strategy.
Vaclav Radimsky - Ignored Czech Impressionist
Černá, Jana ; Pech, Milan (advisor) ; Vlček, Tomáš (referee)
Anglická anotace: Václav Radimský - The omitted Czech Impressionist At the end of the 19. century to escalate the interest about reality in the artistic background. Reaction of this fact have make the new artistic phenomenon- the impressionism. My bachelor thesis will deal with the position ignored but very principal Czech impressionist Vaclav Radimsky at the Czech artistic stage. The next part of it is the reflection this term of course and its knottiness of the simply application at the Czech history of art and cultural background.

Transformation of Radio Freen Europe after 1989 with regard to the work of Mrs. Kamila Moučková (case study)
Šalanská, Lucie ; Štoll, Martin (advisor) ; Vlček, Tomáš (referee)
The aim of this bachelor's thesis is to outline to a potential reader the work of Mrs. Kamila Moučková in Radio Free Europe. It is desirable that the reader can create a comprehensive view of the issue. For this reason, the bachelor's thesis contains a chapter describing in detail the life story of Mrs. Kamila Moučková. At the same time, the work describes the origin and development of Radio Free Europe. Attention is focused mainly on the activities of the Czechoslovak and subsequently the Czech editorial office of Radio Free Europe. Due to the fact that Mrs. Moučková joined the editorial office of Free Europe only in the post- revolutionary period, it is necessary to describe the transformation of the station in the period in question. The work was processed mainly by the method of analysis of professional literature and by interviewing former colleagues Mrs. Moučková from Radio Free Europe. Namely Mr. Radko Kubička and Mr. Petr Hartman. Mrs. Moučková worked at Radio Free Europe for almost the entire period of the Czech newsroom's existence. Mrs. Moučková participated mainly in the program Události a názory. In her case, the practical creation of one of the programs of this iconic radio station in the later phase of its existence can be shown.

The topic of this bachelor thesis is a radio documentary and its processing. In the theoretical part I describe the main features of a radio documentary and the principles of its creation. Furthermore, in this part I also briefly deal with the history of the genre. In the practical part of my work, I enclose a specific radio documentary I prepared on the topic of the departure of Soviet troops from Czechoslovakia, which took place after the Velvet Revolution. The basic element of the documentary in the practical part is mainly working with the radio archive and an interview with a witness. The skript of the practical part of the work is a part of the appendix.
