What I Want to See
Šavarová, Veronika ; Helia De Felice, Jennifer (referee) ; Fexová, Patricie (advisor)
What I want to see is the culmination of a five-year creation that consisted of several projects. The content varied, but the core remained the same – the creation of a beautiful, perfect world and the associated escapism from the real world. Elements of mystery, surrealism, various kinds of symbols, or feeling of distress have always been present in this previous work, and this is no different in the current project. What I want to see from this years of work draws and borrows its narrative. The work is closely related to my personal experiences. Its name therefore derives from the need for the presence of a particular ideal and utopian place.

Analysis of current views of mutism in specialized Czech and foreign literature
Páleníková, Petra ; Klenková, Jiřina (advisor) ; Květoňová, Lea (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with mutism from the perspective of specialized czech and foreign literature. The character of the thesis is theoretical and the thesis is divided into three parts. In the first chapter, there is mutism described based on the study of czech specialized literature as well as etiology, symptoms, diagnostics and treatment. The second chapter describes the same categories but based on the study of foreign literature. The last part is dedicated to the analysis and comparison of acquired knowledge in particular areas. The most signifiant differences can be found in the area of diagnostics and therapy of mutisms, which are more elaborated in foreign literature than in Czech literature. Some differences appear in all other areas of mutism. The learning theory is the characteristic feature of foreign literature in the field of etiology of mutism, also the social enxiety is the characteric feature in the area of symptoms and treatment; overall we can see a dominant influence of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. The Czech literature provides a number of different views not only on the definition of mutism, but also on the etiology and symptomatology. The diagnostics and the therapy of mutism is not further elaborated in the Czech literature.
