Media Image of the Romani
Divíšková, Jaroslava ; Vojtěchovský, Miroslav (advisor) ; Moravcová, Mirjam (referee)
This master's thesis presents the media image of the Czech Romani and the origins of stereotyping them in relation to the individual photography project of the American portrait photographer Chade Evans Wyatt. The thesis propose two interrelated questions. While the first one is concerned with the media image of Romani as constructed by the Czech daily newspapers and television from the 1990s to the beginning of the 21st century. The second question reviews the significance of the monothematic part of Wyatt's artwork, who within the same time attempted both to create and present a new media image of the Czech Romani that would confront the stereotypical approach of the majority to the Romani, which at the beginning became the major motive for that project.

Visual experince as example and pattern in relation to the expansion and influence into human life
Nohejl, Jiří ; Czumalo, Vladimír (advisor) ; Vojtěchovský, Miroslav (referee)
The main theme of this dissertation is to define an image as a visual experience. The human interaction is described by the author himself as a perception of the image, which serves as an information unit that could be presented as a possibility, example and pattern for the individual. There is an emphasis on the process of perception itself and on the way of interaction of an individual emphasizing the context of social learning and imitation in this text. The analysis of the principles of this interaction leading into introduction of the partial interactive models covering these processes is formed by the essential plane. The structure of the thesis is divided into ten main chapters in which the author tries to introduce a category of perception, a definition of the image and imitation as a tool of cultural transmission, presentation of the units of this transmission, the process of the interaction itself and analogous example of the fundamental role that a person in this interaction holds. There are also three analogies of these roles, which refer to the anthropological universal interaction describing the man as a gatherer and hunter. Their main purpose is to illustrate the form of a human experience better. Finally, there are reflections on the topic above. The possibilities and results, which...

The Media as a Theme in the Arts Across the History of the Czech Media
Ježková, Tereza ; Köpplová, Barbara (advisor) ; Jiroušek, Bohumil (referee) ; Vojtěchovský, Miroslav (referee)
Like newspapers, books, cinema or music, fine art is a medium of human communication, and the carrier of a message. Its role as a specific means of communication has transformed throughout history, along with the role of mass media. Before the rise of mass communications across all of society, this function was to some degree facilitated by works of art. A work of art is itself a medium of communication, while at the same time it can also represent other media - in various stages of the evolution of arts and culture the mass media themselves became the subject of art. This can be defined as the meta-communication of one medium with another. The present dissertation focuses on the research and work of Czech artists engaged with visualizing the means of mass-media communication (periodicals, radio, television) and its actors (the recipients and producers of media content). The relevant works of art for this thesis (paintings, drawings, prints, sculptures) are the focus of a qualitative analysis resulting in an overview of the evolution of this subject matter since the advent of mass media, i.e., from the emergence of the first printed periodicals to the 1960s. My dissertation The Media as a Theme in the Arts Across the History of the Czech Media approaches the topic as historical research viewed...
