Zuzana Urbanová The Function of Direct Forms of Presentation in the Generic Structure of Newspaper Reports Abstract The thesis deals with the employment of direct forms of presentation in the genre of hard news. The texts for the analysis were excerpted from the main British broadsheet newspapers. The classification of forms of presentation is based on Semino and Short (2004) and focuses on their deictic and syntactic properties, interpreted in terms of the pragmatic concepts of perspective, faithfulness claims and the role of the reported and reporting speaker. Attention is paid to various direct forms, including direct speech, free direct speech and combined forms, i.e. non-direct forms appearing with a partial direct quote. The thesis draws heavily on the work by White (1998), whose approach to genre is informed by the ideas proposed by the Sydney School and Systemic Functional Linguistics. Hard news is characterised by the orbital generic structure, consisting of the nucleus and a number of specifying satellites (White 1998). The occurrence of direct and combined forms of presentation is explained by their deictic, syntactic and pragmatic properties, the generic role and characteristic features of the nucleus and individual satellites, and the overall function of hard news. The function of hard news and...

Mrázková, Tereza ; Satrapová, Lenka (advisor) ; Nováková, Tereza (referee)
Title: Effect of fitness concept FLOWIN® on balance and spinal segmental stabilisation Objectives: The goal of this thesis is to find out whether exercising the fitness concept FLOWIN® has any real and measurable effect on balance and spinal segmental stabilization of the individual, based on the comparison of measured data of exercisers of different levels of profficiency, which is differentiated by the length of exercise (beginners, advanced) and instructors of group lessons operating in the Czech Republic. Methods: The study in nature was a blinded experiment, attended by 13 beginners, 19 advanced exercisers and 10 instructors of the fitness concept FLOWIN®. Each participant's balance was tested by using the Y Balance test on lower and upper body and testing of spinal segmental stabilization was performed by using tests based on the principles of Australian method. The average results of testing of balance and spinal segmental stabilization of the experimental groups were then compared with each other. Separately were evaluated results of measuring spinal segmental stabilization in the group of instructors, depending on their experience in practicing the concept. Results: In the case of testing balance, the resulting research data showed that after comparing the average values of individual...

The function of hard news and forms of presentation is also discussed in terms of the more general concepts of heteroglossia, dialogue...
