Josisová, Pavlína ; Peregrin, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Kolman, Vojtěch (referee)
The diploma thesis examines the role of convention in J. L. Austin's speech act theory. It describes the possibility of "how to do things with words": such an analysis of language will be suggested that does not focus on the category of truth when dealing with particular utterances but rather replaces it with the category of felicity of a speech act in the social context. After having offered the explication including the central points of the given theory, there starts the investigation of which parts of the speech act theory are conventionally based and what role do conventions play in the speech act theory as a whole.

Martyrs of the genre Traps
Křenková, Jarmila ; Čeněk, David (advisor) ; Hanáková, Petra (referee)
Bachelor's thesis Martyrs of Genre Traps deals with the analysis of Pascal Laugier's film Martyrs as a unique transgressive work of art, which, owing to its split between genre and non-genre, expands even into very diverse discourses. It establishes its position within the horror as a crisis narrative, the forming of which is influenced by circumstances of the period, and puts it in context of contemporary European horror and integrating creative vision. The analysis itself then focuses on an innovative approach to genre structures defined by the method of radical dramatic cuts, which lies in precise fulfillment of horror subgenre conventions and their subsequent alterations, due to which the conventionalised genre rediscovers its subversive potential. Keywords Horror, Martyrs, Pascal Laugier, Genre, Convention, Inovation, Crisis narrative, Gore film

How facticity influences normativity: conventions in law
Rygl, Vojtěch ; Kühn, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Tryzna, Jan (referee)
How facticity influences normativity: conventions in law This thesis is about social practice and its influence on the legal system. We examine the basic philosophical approaches to law and use them to challenge the very existence of conventions in law. After we derive the basic notion of convention we develop the three-step test to guarantee that we are able to identify conventions within the legal system and distinguish them from other categories of legal notions. The three-step test presented in chapter two is slightly modifying Andrei Mamor's test. The first criterion of the test is the existence of certain social group that maintains in certain situation specific conventional rule. The second criterion is build around the idea that conventions exist when there are people who have certain reasons to comply with this rule. Final criterion represents the existence of an alternative rule that could be upheld by those people as well. Nevertheless, those people rather comply with the conventional rule. If those three criterions are met, it is probable that we are dealing with conventions. We conclude that the conventions are present within every system of social norms although its importance within various legal cultures and systems varies dramatically. The value of social practice for legal practice shall...
