KEŇOVÁ, Hedvika
The topic of my bachelor's thesis are women's lives and life careers from the viewpoint of women at the beginning of senior age. This theme was elected for its topicality and still developing publication rate in the given issue, especially from the qualitative viewpoint. The main target of the thesis is to find out important life events and milestones which influenced the lives of women standing at the beginning of senior age at present and how they perceive them now. The topic focuses on the life stories of women and on their connection with important historic events having occurred during their life. In the theoretical part, the hitherto knowledge of this topic is summarised by means of the written documents. The study of lives, characteristic milestones in the life of women in the context with historic events and social environment are analysed and processed here. The research part of bachelor's thesis is elaborated in a qualitative way. For the data collection, oral-history method and the method of biographic talks were applied. For the evaluation, the method of putting down the formulas was applied by which the identical formulas in the life of women were described. In the discussion, the method of creating bunches was applied. Based on this method and the determined fields of life and categories, the target was postulated to describe the individual life stories of women enriched by their statements as well as to answer two research questions. Based on the evaluation of the acquired data, the first research question: where the respondents see the main differences in the life style in the time at the beginning of their active career and now was answered subsequently: the main change in the life of women was the change in the arrangement of the society in which they had lived at the beginning of their lives careers and in which they live now. In connection with this change, additional changes in their lives took place. The women perceive the changes in the family as well as work live, where the change is e.g. the uncertainty of work. The second research question was: which main life events influenced the life style of these women? In what aspects and how? The most frequently stated life events having influenced their ways of life are the possibility of study or decision on the field of study by their parents, wedding, maternity, death of a close person and detection of a serious illness. The bachelor's thesis deals with a topical sociological subject and it tries to bring this topic closer to the wide public as well as the students of sociology. It may represent a contribution also for the students of humanistic disciplines e.g. social work, where especially the individual attitude to the individual as well as his/her life story may be applied and utilized.
