Mrázek, Jan ; MARUŠÁK, Radek (advisor) ; ČERNÍK, Roman (referee)
This work is a description of the realization of a pedagogical project that uses the method of drama in teaching philosophy. It's themes are the truth, authenticity and Charter 77, with focus on the personality and work of Jan Patočka. It is divided into a theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part presents the creation of the project, the preparation of the realization, the philosophical starting points and also the analysis of the methodology of drama in philosophy. In the practical part, the realization of the project is being described, with notes on the fulfillment or non-fulfillment of the starting points from the theoretical part. The key method of the work is reflection. It is set between pedagogy, philosophy and theater and aims to draw methodological conclusions from the implementation of the project. These conclusions are based on pedagogical and philosophical assumptions. This work may be an inspiration for pedagogues dealing with the combination of drama and other disciplines in teaching or for educators seeking the philosophical foundations of their work.
