Revision of Renaissance values by Ariosto and Cervantes
Horká, Alice ; Blinková Pelánová, Eva (advisor) ; Pelán, Jiří (referee)
The diploma thesis deals with the revision of Renaissance values in the works of Orlando Furioso and The Ingenious don Quixote de la Mancha. The first part is focused on the identification of contemporary Renaissance values. The main part of the thesis is devoted to the analysis of the two works mentioned above. The last part refers to the comparison of these works in the context of the laid out Renaissance values. The analysis and subsequent comparison of the two works shows that the chivalric theme, with which both authors work, changed already in the second half of the 15th century, and works that parody this genre appeared. Both authors portray realities different from the idealized world of Breton novels. The ideals are unattainable and unrealistic in both works, the characters move in a world that does not belong to them, they only live in it with a feeling of loss and alienation. At the same time, they are no longer idealized representatives of certain groups, and therefore they can make mistakes, they can behave contrary to moral principles and chivalric virtues, they also act on the basis of their inner motivations, wishes, weakness or fear. The stories of ordinary people and soldiers who solve their problems and desires also come to the foreground. We get to the essential questions of...

Blažek, Daniel ; Peřinová, Radka (advisor) ; Crossan, William Morea (referee)
Title: Sport as a pedagogical tool Objectives: The aim of the bachelor thesis is to identify and describe, based on available literature and on interviews with coaches and educators, how sport can be used as a pedagogic tool in practice. Methods: The theoretical part contains an analysis of the literature on the pedagogic impact of sport. On the basis of this analysis, three organisations were selected (Ambassadors FC Praha, Scout, Sokol). These organizations were chosen because their goal is personal formation through sport; moreover I have personal experience with these organizations. For these organisations, an analysis of materials (websites, magazines, methodologies) was carried out in order to identify their values, goals, and pedagogic emphases. In addition, I assessed various psychological and pedagogic studies identifying thus the areas that are most easily influenced through sport. The practical part identifies, through semi-structured interviews with one coach from each selected organisation, what their pedagogic activities look like in practice. In these interviews I inquire about three thematic areas: the values and goals of the organization, the use of sport as a pedagogical tool, and the demands on coaches and their further formation and training.

Ethics Horizons at a Gymnazium
FEJTOVÁ, Blanka
The thesis deals with the state of interpersonal relationships, students' relations to humanities and science and ethical values in grammar school. The theoretical part deals with the principles of upbringing and education at grammar school and the definition of the concepts of ethical values. The practical part includes a system of evaluation of the interpretations of students' interviews with regard to the quality of interpersonal relationships and level of teaching, students' attitudes and relationships to the school subjects taught and ethical values. The quality of interpersonal relationships appears to be at a very good level in connection with the size of the gymnasium of around 400 students. The level of teaching meets the expectations of the students and the requirements for admission to universities and thus legitimises the existence of a generally focused grammar school. The students accept with slight resentment the disbalance in favour of science while subjects of humanities are neglected, and they show the practice of basic ethical values.
