Geomorphilogy in ancient Greece and Rome
Leglerová, Anna ; Křížek, Marek (advisor) ; Šefrna, Luděk (referee)
Ancient Greece in the 7th century BC was important for the creation of philosophy and development of science. Although geomorphology didn't exist as an independent science in this time, there were the first attempts to explain and describe geomorphologic processes and landforms. The goal of this bachelor thesis is to aggregate descriptions and explanations of these phenomena from works of ancient Greek and Roman philosophers, historians and other authors. The main purpose is to point out correct explanations and to explain the cause of these which are wrong. Main phenomena, which were scholars focused on, were earthquakes, volcanism and the annual flood on the Nile River. Greeks and Romans believed that the Earth's relief is changing all the time. Relief landforms were used during campaigns, in agriculture and for the foundation of cities. The scholars were able to critically analyse theories of their ancestors. Despite the fact that some of the explanations were different from these of today, it shows us that science in ancient Greece and Rome is an important period for development of geomorphology and science in general. Key words: geomorphology, ancient Greece and Rome, Mediterranean

Špetlíková, Denisa ; Martinová, Marta (advisor) ; Kotík, Michal (referee)
This bachelor's thesis deals with the Greek (mainly Athenian) and Roman institutions of marriage, prostitution and homosexuality in ancient times, which analyzes in depth in the first part. It shows standards which the ancient society recognizes in these relationships and shows the boundaries of normalcy. It discovers the conditions under which the institutions evolved and what had an impact on their development or shows why the institutions and their individual aspects are beginning to decline. The second part discusses the same institutions in contemporary Czech society, especially through sociological surveys from the years 2000- 2011. It shows what specific differences exist here and what opinions have the contemporary society on them. It justifies and explains how and why the differences occurred and what are their significances. The thesis outlines too, how could possible future developments of some aspects of the institutions look like.
