The author tries to verify validity of a presumption that the digital entertainment is an object of a cultural stigma that was formed by combination of various factors which are closely specified in the work. According to the author, present perception of the digital entertaiment in society is formed by a media panic that repeated itself regularly in the course of history. Amongst other significant determinants one can find certain stereotypical viewes, efforts of a ruling class to sustain status quo and struggle of various social groups over cultural dominance which leads to hierarchization of cultural tastes.

Hercogová, Simona ; Pokorný, Ladislav (advisor) ; Přibyl, Ivan (referee)
The thesis "Motor Skills of Volleyball and Beach Volleyball Players Depending on Their Anthropometric Parameters" discusses the distinctions in somatotypes of players of both sports. The thesis aims to define the influence of a somatotype for playing in each position. Furthermore, the thesis compares the differences in motor skills between beach volleyball and volleyball players. Nowadays, professional sports are characterized by growing pressure on athlete's performance. It leads to higher competition which lowers the differences between the individual athletes to minimum. As it gets more difficult for every athlete to be the best, room for science opens up in sport. For this reason, natural conditions of somatotypes and other anthropometric parameters play key roles. The aim of the thesis was to discover the differences in motor skills and somatotypes of beach volleyball and volleyball players. In the research, somatic and motor measurements were applied on players of the same performance categories. Thus, the thesis offers material that beach volleyball and volleyball coaches can later use in practise, for instance while spotting future talents, setting appropriate positions or creating game plans.

Computer game - a peculiar literal creation?
Kovaříková, Šárka ; Klumparová, Štěpánka (advisor) ; Kubíček, Tomáš (referee)
The bachelor thesis with the topic "Computer game - a peculiar literal creation?" consists of two parts. The first part introduces computer games in general and takes up the RPG genre, which is the closest one to literature due to its large content of text. It shows that for playing computer games similar abilities are needed as for reading books (mainly reading and information literacy). The term "flow-experience while playing computer games" is mentioned as well. Further, different scientific approaches, which can be applied to research about computer games can be found. The last topic of the first part describes fictional worlds, where different stories can take place. These stories are created by the different narrative categories - narrator and tale, time, space and characters. The second part of the thesis is dedicated to analysis and interpretation of the computer game "The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion". This part verifies that for playing computer games it is necessary to know special types of literacy. Besides that, the game shows one type of fictional world, where all the narrative categories create a specific world with its own rules.
