Discourse analysis of language of tabloids
Gazdošová, Sára ; Walek, Agata (referee) ; Langerová, Petra (advisor)
Tato práce obsahuje popis jazykové analýzy textů z hlediska lexikálního, gramatického a stylistického. Dále jsou probírány termíny jako koheze, koherence a kontext. Tato práce je rozdělena do dvou částí. První část se zabývá teorií a obecnými informacemi o diskurzní analýze a obsahuje obecné příklady. Tyto informace jsou důležité pro pozdější pochopení analýzy jazyka bulváru. Je zde také zmíněna historie a základní typy masmédií. Druhá část se zabývá analýzou praktických příkladů z online verzí bulvárních deníků Daily Mail a The Sun. Je zde krátce popsán vzhled a rozložení stránek těchto deníků. Vybrané prvky analýzy jazyka jsou aplikovány na příklady z těchto bulvárních novin.

Stylistic Differences in English Speeches of Male and Female Members of the European Parliament
Buňková, Jana ; Matuchová, Klára (advisor) ; Morgan, Craig Alan (referee)
This diploma thesis is a sociolinguistic analysis of speeches rendered in English by members of the European Parliament. The aim of this diploma thesis is to analyze the stylistic patterns in speeches of members of the European Parliament based on gender, as a sociolinguistic factor. This thesis is based on three main linguistic disciplines: grammar, stylistics and sociolinguistics. The practical part is based on a research of 100 randomly chosen members of the European Parliament, 50 men and 50 women, whose speeches rendered in English, were transcribed and analyzed by the quantitative method used for a comparison of linguistic features. This thesis predominantly focuses on grammatical analysis of parts of speech and syntax. It also deals with hyper- sentential links: cohesion and coherence. This thesis also includes profiles of MEP which, together with other sociolinguistic researches, help to interpret the results of a grammatical analysis. The practical part is concluded by profiles of hypothetic MEPs who are likely to render their speech in English.
