Homosexuality in the Age of Oscar Wilde
KOLÁŘ, Filip
The introductory part of this bachelor 's attempts to outline the historical context of the times that preceded the Victorian era. Homosexuality in ancient Greece and in Czech lands is explored in the first chapter. This chapter also deals with the evolution of definition of sexual scandal in different times. In the following chapter, the attention is paid to an English educational system, which shaped society to a large extent. It highlights the fact that homosexual activities were performed by young students, who were to become a future elite of British society. Three important scholars are also mentioned in this chapter, John A. Symonds, Edward Carpenter, and Havelock Ellis. The last two chapters deal with homosexuality in Victoria England and its empire, with Oscar Wilde trials and places certain elements in context of more liberal France, where Oscar Wilde fled.

Veselková, Eva ; Kozák, Kryštof (advisor) ; Raška, Francis (referee)
A History of Unequal Opportunity in the U.S. Segregation of Latino School Children Half a century has passed since the U.S. Supreme Court famously stated that separate educational facilities are inherently unequal. After all this time, separate facilities are still the reality and they are still unequal. This thesis examines the educational experience of Latino children in the United States from the twentieth century up to the present, with the main focus on the area of the American Southwest. The history of Latino school segregation is examined from the legal perspective, focusing on the significant court cases in which Latinos fought against segregation and for equal educational opportunities. A special attention is paid to Mendez v. Westminster federal court case, which has ended de jure segregation of Latinos after the World War II. While the topic of school segregation in relation to Latinos is often overlooked by professional literature and little known to the public, it is very important as Latinos represent one fourth of all public school children in the United States today. This paper concludes that, because of school segregation, the educational history of Latinos in the United States is one of unequal opportunity. Moreover, the educational opportunities of Latino children remain...
