Utilization of XML databases for retrieval of data-mining specifications
Marek, Tomáš ; Kliegr, Tomáš (advisor) ; Kosek, Jiří (referee)
The aim of this work is to create a querying system in analytical reports stored as PMML documents. These PMML documents are stored in native XML database, because these documents are structured as XML documents. Selected XML database is available for free and its resources and means meet the proposed solution. Also searching algorithm is created to search these documents by means of XQuery language. Inasmuch as searched data have the character of the XML data the use of language for querying XML data suggests. In terms of the use of the XQuery language structure of PMML document was explored and data links in these documents was used to ensure proper search results. Results of the search are association rules from these analytical reports stored in PMML documents, requests of the search are attributes to be in the rules, their values and other limits of the search. So that the whole system is complete and could be fully used, it is necessary to create a communication environment through which the work with stored data is performed. For this purpose, Java and REST(ful) architecture for creating applications are used.

Waldorf Approach to Teaching Foreign Languages
Dvořáková, Kateřina ; Spilková, Vladimíra (advisor) ; Ries, Lumír (referee) ; Betáková, Lucie (referee)
12. SUMMARY This dissertation, titled The Waldorf Approach to Teaching Foreign Languages, deals with the methodology of foreign-language teaching used at Waldorf (Steiner) schools with a particular focus on young learners aged 6 to 10. Its main aim is to present and explore how foreign languages are taught in this pedagogical system with over ninety years of worldwide experience in incorporating two foreign languages into a primary curriculum from the first class onwards. The choice of the topic was determined by the following factors: 1) Even though Waldorf pedagogy has been the subject of numerous scholarly works in the Czech Republic since 1989, there are no studies specifically treating the theme of foreign-language teaching. 2) Books about the Waldorf approach to teaching foreign languages are largely written in German, and on the whole they are not easily accessible. In addition to this general lack of resources, the available materials contain mostly information about the content and expected outcomes for each school year and suggestions for concrete activities, but there is no systematic and thorough description of the methodological background to foreign-language teaching. 3) The Waldorf methodology deeply rooted in the humanistic tradition could be a stimulating and thought-provoking incentive for...

The key for including of a mural to the catalogue was the founding date between early middle-ages up to the year 1526; end of the hegemony of the Jagellon dynasty amongst Bohemian Kingdom. The core of the work is a comprehensive catalogue of such murals. Included are 12 localities where these murals can be found, dating through 300 years of the middle-ages. Not included in this catalogue are the three well-documented sacral spaces in Karlštejn castle, although they also fit the time period in question. It must be acknowledged that the Karlštejn chapel murals are key elements in understanding this style and era, due to their quality and influential nature. This essay sought to isolate and explore any specific typology in this class of artwork. However, it must be stated that no such unique common character exists. The murals are more a reflection of the requirements and tastes of the individual patrons; they also express the fashion of their particular eras. There are also discrepancies in quality, which vary from century to century. In the 14th century, the quality of the investigated murals cannot be compared to that of paintings in the court of the King. However, by the late 15th and 16th centuries, the quality of murals...

"Sonne, this sall be oure takynnyng…" Sir Percyvell of Gales and Chrétien de Troyes's Conte du Graal: narrative strategies in a Middle English romance
Zátka, Ondřej ; Čermák, Jan (advisor) ; Znojemská, Helena (referee)
The Middle English verse romance Sir Percyvell of Gales was preserved in a unique copy in the Thornton manuscript held by the Lincoln Cathedral Library as MS 91. Altogether the manuscript contains sixty-four texts of various genres ranging from saints' lives to medical treatises as well as eight romances, including Sir Percyvell. Although the manuscript was written around the half of the 15th century, the date of composition of the poem was set early in the 14th century.1 The foolish, blundering, and unmannerly knight Perceval made his first appearance on the stage of medieval European literature in Chrétien de Troyes's twelfth-century Le Conte du Graal, or Le Roman de Perceval, an unfinished masterpiece of 9234 lines, which turned out to be one of the founding texts of the genre of Arthurian verse romance2 not only in French, but also in all the other vigorously developing national literary languages of Western Europe of that time. Chrétien's Perceval is a prime example of the refined courtly mode of chivalric romance. It is embroidered with subtle love-talk and ritualized courtly manners. It features long psychologizing sketches of the heroes, a composition which is far from linear and in which events are often presented not in chronological order, but rather in a changed succession subjected to the...
