The image of jungle in the novels The Vortex by José Eustasio Rivera and Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad
Schürgerová, Johana ; Poláková, Dora (advisor) ; Housková, Anna (referee)
The goal of this bachelor's thesis was to focus on the image of the rainforest in the roman The Vortex (La vorágine) by Jose Eustasio Rivera and then to compare it with the african jungle where is set the novelle Heart of Darkness by Johseph Conrad. The object of exploring were the effects of the environment on the characters,too. We observed changes in their behaviour and of their actions in the wilderness. In the end, we have shown the historical events that went down in history as gross abuses of human rights and, subsequently, we analyzed the motives of exploitation of both man and nature in both works.

Humour and critique in Pantaleón y las visitadoras from Mario Vargas Llosa
Frimlová, Petra ; Poláková, Dora (advisor) ; Sánchez Fernández, Juan Antonio (referee)
OF THE THESIS: The novel Captain Pantoja and the Special Service introduces the second period of Mario Vargas Llosa's literary production, which is caracterized by the simplification of the narration and the discovery of humour. The thesis focuses on the formal and thematic analysis of the novel with the objective to prove that despite the novel is in general humorous and parodic, there could be found some constant topics, known to the readers from Llosa's previous novels, which he had always treated very critically, and he also did so in this erotic and humorous work. Therefore, apart from the analysis of humour the thesis also examines the critical approach to the social problems present in the novel. The analysis also shows that the narration is slightly simplified in comparison to the author's formers works, but it still perfectly demonstrates the unconventional narrative techniques, which Vargas Llosa has used since the 1960's, since the period of the new hispano-american novel. KEY WORDS: Mario Vargas Llosa, Captain Pantoja and the Special Service, The Time of the Hero, The Green House, Latin American boom, Hispano-American new novel, total novel, experimental narrative techniques, types of humour and irony, humorous prose, parody, erotic novel, libertine prose, rainforest, criticism of the...

Above all, it focuses on the creation of so-called jungle tales and its particular environment. The first part is theoretical and tries to sum up the most important facts of the author's life and creation and it is followed by the part summarizing various information about the theory of the concept of space in literature. A special chapter is dedicated to (the) a term "topos", which is appllied to the hispanoamerican literature and to the generation of regionalism, especially to the novel of the jungle. The work continues with the a practical analysis of the short stories. It describes the comparison of expressions of Quiroga's different styles and the image of the province of Misiones, where the author lived for a long time and which remains captured in his works.

Vliv způsobu lesnického hospodaření na biodiverzitu lesních ekosystémů v kontextu globální klimatické změny
Ekologické služby, s.r.o., Hořovice ; Hošek, Jan
Úkolem projektu bylo na podkladě shromážděných existujících a nově pořízených souborů dat zhodnotit význam vybraných vlivů lesního hospodaření (změna druhové a věkové skladby) na biodiverzitu indikačních skupin organismů ve vztahu k podmínkám stanoviště. Podařilo se vytvořit jednotnou koncepci výzkumu vyhohovující zavedeným metodickým postupům a shromáždit rozsáhlé datové soubory o druhovém bohatství různých taxonomických skupin organismů ve shodném prostorovém a časovém měřítku. Výsledky analýz prezentované v této zprávě ukazují na významný vliv vlastností lesního porostu a způsobu lesního hospodaření na diverzitu všech sledovaných skupin organismů. Ukazuje se, že pro některé ze sledovaných skupin je pravděpodobně klíčovým faktorem lesní prostředí vůbec nenarušované lesnickým hospodařením. Jsou tak potvrzeny významné rozdíly mezi lesními porosty s různou intenzitou lesního hospodaření. Další analýzy umožní nalézt klíčové faktory pro sledované taxonomické skupiny v daných typech lesních porostů.
