Theatre decoration? Set design? Scenography?
Vöröšová, Markéta ; KOUBSKÁ, Vlasta (advisor) ; CÍSAŘ, Jan (referee)
This thesis focuses on and compares the theoretical perception of scenography in the works of Czech aestheticians Otakar Zich and Růžena Vacková.
The whole comparison is integrated into the context of Czech modern scenography. Several key productions were chosen to demonstrate new tendencies that appeared at the specified time point in our theatre history. The thesis mentions theatre authors together with their works that played important role in forming Zich?s and Vacková?s opinions and theatre conceptions.
Taking into account how versatile personalities Otakar Zich and Růžena Vacková were it was necessary to bring up all areas of their activities. I attempted to summarize their professional careers and their influence on followers and I also wanted not to omit their life?s history . I deal with the importance of Zich´s key work Estetika dramatického umění and I also focused on personality of Vacková and the circumstances of the creation of Výtvarný projev v dramatickém umění.
It is a compilation work in which I try to present two approaches to the visual component of theatre performances. I compare their terminology used. I try to describe some aspects of scenography which Vacková developed under the influence of her predecessor and teacher and also the aspects that she was not in accordance with. Further, I focus on the problems of the possible forms of set design, connection between scenography and painting or architecture, and also on how the authors conceived the ideal scene, on whether they attached greater or lesser importance to stage directions and also on the problems of light, costumes, masks, stage objects?
This thesis should be perceived as a mere starting point for further in-depth exploration. There is a possibility to go deeper into details and/or extend the view so as to cover also other representatives of the Czech theatre theory with their scenography conceptions. I hope that, in the future, I will be able to continue working on this topic and to cover the history of Czech set desing theory in its integrity up to present days.

Civil Society in Non-Democratic Regime. Analysis of Civic Groups in Current Burma and Their Relation towards the End of Military Goverment
Peřinová, Marie ; Mlejnek, Josef (advisor) ; Andělová, Petra (referee)
Since 1962, Burma (Myanmar) has been under the rule of a military junta, which, through the extensive state and military apparatus, forms one of the most repressive regimes in the world today. In spite of, or rather because of the authority of the authoritarian regime, hundreds of associations with a variety of social, economic and political goals have been emerging in the country in recent years. The existence of numerous associations under authoritarian rule is a rather new phenomenon which has aroused contradictory views among observers - hopes for the formation of civil society struggling for liberalization on the one hand, and fear that the associations are just another of the regime's tools to manage people's lives on the other. On the basis of a qualitative analysis of various organizations, movements, parties and groups in current-day Burma, this thesis aims to explain that neither of the aforementioned views alone can depict the complexity of associational life under the authoritarian regime, but rather that both roles must be viewed as an intrinsic and mutually-interacting part of it. Many of the associations are apparently controlled and used by the military government for its own objectives, including the aim to preserve the regime. At the same time, there are organizations which strive to...

It has also a potential to use social networks for its publicity and development. The aim is to first determine what areas of the clubs operations are the most appropriate to be supported by any information system. Another objective is to find out how other clubs already integrate any information systems. The final objective is to design and create a specific application. The first two objectives are addressed through a survey among the leaders of the biggest Czech clubs. Indeed in these clubs, the use of automation and simplification of existing processes could have a great potential. The proposal for a specific application is then based on the previous survey and the field experience of the author. While serving many existing processes in running the club, the proposed application adds many elements of social networking.
