A wood path to the vital self: the power of nature in D. H. Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's Lover
Klosová, Kateřina ; Armand, Louis (referee) ; Beran, Zdeněk (advisor)
A wood in spring of such tender and perceptive description would certainly stir a living string not only in Connie Chatterley, the heroine of D. H. Lawrence's novel Lady Chatterley's Lover. The vividness and intensity of life that glares out of this 'picture' represents a dominant feature of Lawrence's novel which belongs to the last, fifth period of the author's career. It is not a mere coincidence that what later became published as Lady Chatterley's Lover was, in fact, a novel Lawrence originally proposed to call Tenderness. It is indeed sensibility of extraordinary degree, intense perception of colours, of slight movements and changes that occur in nature and the parallel changes taking place in the characters that play a vital role in this novel. This "extension of consciousness, [ ... ] an ability to experience what it is like to be a tree or a daisy or a breaking wave or what he (A. Huxley) called Lawrence's 'superior otherness",2 chiefly account for the poetic, soothing, almost pastoral character of Lady Chatterley's Lover. It seems to be in this novel that Lawrence's long-lasting belief in the revitalizing and revivifying power of nature, the idea of man's contact with and return to nature and the acceptance of his origins therein as the only means of survival for mankind come to their climax and...

Bank of Czechoslovak legions in 1919-1938
Brádlerová, Daniela ; Kubů, Eduard (advisor)
Předkládaná disertační práce má za cíl zpracovat pokud možno celistvý obraz, na československém meziválečném peněžním trhu do značné míry ojedinělé, bankovní instituce - Banky československých legií. Těžiště práce spočívá ve sledování důsledků hospodářských aktivit čsl. legií v Rusku, ideových motivů a politicko-vojenských okolností doprovázejících založení banky. Dále pak v analýze struktury banky a rozkrytí jejích obchodně podnikatelských aktivit v období I. republiky. Ojedinělý byl již způsob, načasování a místo vzniku Legiobanky, kdy těžiště jejích počátečních obchodních aktivit leželo na území cizího státu, zmítaného válkou. S tím souvisí otázka z jakých zdrojů pocházel akciový kapitál Legiobanky. Dosavadní poznatky určily za hlavní zdroje vklady Vojenské spořitelny a zadržené služné vojáků, ale problémem zůstávala obvinění vznášená jak v dobovém tisku a publikacích bývalých bělogvardějských generálů, tak v sovětské vědecké literatuře, že Legiobanka vznikla na základě ukradeného ruského zlatého pokladu. Vzhledem k tomu, že Legiobanka během svého působení na Sibiři hrála aktivní roli v nákupu surovin pro československý průmysl (surovinová akce), k čemuž použila vedle vlastních peněžních prostředků (vklady Vojenské spořitelny) také peníze státu (zadržené služné), pokusila se předkládaná práce vyhodnotit...

Problems of the hip in patients with childhood cerebral palsy in childhood and adolescence. Experimentally influenced centering of the hip by a combination of operational tactics
Schejbalová, Alena ; Trč, Tomáš (advisor) ; Koudela, Karel (referee) ; Karpaš, Karel (referee) ; Kokavec, Milan (referee)
Cerebral palsy it must be nonprogressive brain lesion or lesions. The original lesion must occur prenatally, at birth, or early in the postnatal period. The primary disorder involves the musculoskeletal systém and lack of motor control, mental retardation or defects of hearing, language. Prevalence of cerebral palsy is different - between 0,6- 5,9 per 1000 births. In Western countries, the birth prevalence rate is about 2,0 per 1000. In children with cerebral palsy the hip joint appears to be relative nornmal at birth. There is abnormally increased femoral anteversion and neck-shaft angle. Increasing adduction-flexion contractures of the hip, acetabular dysplasia, subluxation eventual dislocation of the hip.Adduction deformity of the hip is caused by spasticity and contracture of the hip adductors and the medial hamstrings. Flexion deformity of the hip is primarily caused by spasticity and contracture of the iliopsoas and secondarily by rectus femoris muscles. When the rectus femoris is the cause, hip flexion deformity is increased with the knee in flexion and decreased with the knee in extension. When it is due to the iliopsoas muscle, the position of the knee has no effect on the degree of hip flexion contracture ( Thomas test). On passive flexion of the knee, if the test is positive, the pelvis will...

Hodnocení Výsledků Fuzzy Shlukování
Říhová, Elena ; Pecáková, Iva (advisor) ; Řezanková, Hana (referee) ; Žambochová, Marta (referee)
Cluster analysis is a multivariate statistical classification method, implying different methods and procedures. Clustering methods can be divided into hard and fuzzy; the latter one provides a more precise picture of the information by clustering objects than hard clustering. But in practice, the optimal number of clusters is not known a priori, and therefore it is necessary to determine the optimal number of clusters. To solve this problem, the validity indices help us. However, there are many different validity indices to choose from. One of the goals of this work is to create a structured overview of existing validity indices and techniques for evaluating fuzzy clustering results in order to find the optimal number of clusters. The main aim was to propose a new index for evaluating the fuzzy clustering results, especially in cases with a large number of clusters (defined as more than five). The newly designed coefficient is based on the degrees of membership and on the distance (Euclidean distance) between the objects, i.e. based on principles from both fuzzy and hard clustering. The suitability of selected validity indices was applied on real and generated data sets with known optimal number of clusters a priory. These data sets have different sizes, different numbers of variables, and different numbers of clusters. The aim of the current work is regarded as fulfilled. A key contribution of this work was a new coefficient (E), which is appropriate for evaluating situations with both large and small numbers of clusters. Because the new validity index is based on the principles of both fuzzy clustering and hard clustering, it is able to correctly determine the optimal number of clusters on both small and large data sets. A second contribution of this research was a structured overview of existing validity indices and techniques for evaluating the fuzzy clustering results.

The 2015 Refugee crisis and politics of the Czech Republic
Woloszczuková, Kristýna ; Prorok, Vladimír (advisor) ; Lisa, Aleš (referee)
The theses deals with the most current problem of refugees stemming from the Syrian crisis, and the consequences the migration crisis can have for stability and the overall political situation in the chosen region. Due to the fact that the Syrian crisis is felt not only in the region, the aim of this thesis is to look at the impact of subsequent migrant crisis on the EU with focus on the Czech Republic. Despite various attempts by the international community, including the EU and the Czech Republic itself, to stabilise the situation the migration crisis is not, within a short and midterm time frame, closing to an end, and it is necessary to focus on possible negative consequences it may bring. The aim of this thesis is to uncover possible political repercussions. Even though, the Czech Republic is in reality afflicted by the migration wave on a minimal scale, the main hypothesis of this thesis is that the current migration wave has an influence on its political scene. The thesis is focusing especially on extremism in the Czech public and consequently in the political scene.

Archivation and data backup
Zámostný, Jindřich ; Havránek, Martin (advisor) ; Ladislav, Ladislav (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with backup and archiving of data in a business environment.
The first part of the thesis focuses on individual categories of backup systems for possibilities how to backup and archiving as well as the backup repository. Given that companies are dependent on the timeliness and availability of data, spending more and more resources on systems that they ensure that data is securely backed up.
The second part contains analysis of the current backup status in the company. It also includes requirements for business what they need to back up. After that three backup and archiving systems are chosen, which meet the business requirements.
The last part deals with the evaluation of information and recommendations.

More effective approaches of brown coal post-mining restoration
Christov, Ivan ; Hendrychová, Markéta (advisor) ; Walmsley, Alena (referee)
The thesis is focused on evaluation of landscape restoration procedures. The land was heavily devastated by large-scale quarrying. Here are compared reclamation procedures used in the Czech Republic and abroad. Study area is the North Bohemian brown coal basin, which formed areas valuable for many endangered species of flora and fauna after the mining has ended. Surface coal mining method causes the extinction of villages, roads, railways, land and greenery. Our task now is to minimalize these effects as much as possible. To create a new landscape, with an emphasis on the environment. Reclamation helps us to do that.
Monitored location is Střimická dump, where the representation of non-productive habitat was evaluated and there was proposed new, more efficient version of reclamation. Mapping has found that the current state of the dump is 5,2 % representation of non-productive habitat. The proposed variant represents the addition of new elements and thus increase the proportion to 23,5 %, which corresponds with the current trend of post-mining landscape recovery.

Economic consequences of the dissolution of Czechoslovakia in 1993
Ječmeň, Tomáš ; Tóth, Andrej (advisor) ; Chalupecký, Petr (referee)
The aim is to analyze the economic and political aspects of the dissolution of Czechoslovakia in 1993 in the context of monetary separation and further analyze its impact on monetary indicators in the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic. The thesis provides a comprehensive view of the development of relations within Czechoslovakia after 1989 and monetary separation in 1993. First, attention is focused on description and analysis of economic and political relations between the two nations, which are demonstrated in the illustrative examples of the development of Czechoslovakia between 1989 and 1993. Then analyzes the preparation, conduct and impact of monetary separation on the inflation rate, balance of payments, interest rates and foreign exchange reserves, and consequently macroeconomic indicators are compared both newly formed states. The thesis is written for use with the description, analysis and comparison. Based on the analysis, we can conclude that the collapse of the state was no longer possible in 1993 to avoid. It can be concluded that the monetary separation had no immediate impact on the study of monetary indicators. Based on comparison of selected macroeconomic indicators of the countries we were able to demonstrate that in the first years after the collapse of the federation with the Czech economy developed better and more stable than Slovak Republic. Implementation and results of the disintegration of Czechoslovakia and the associated monetary separation can be considered as a basis for solving current problems eg. In any disintegration of the common currency in the European Union or the possible dissolution of several national states. A proper currency separation in 1993 had a negative impact on the development of monetary variables surveyed states.
