Cette thèse examine le problème de l’évaluation de la qualité d’information produite par des capteurs : ces derniers ne fournissent pas toujours une information correcte et l’évaluation de sa qualité est nécessaire pour en permettre une utilisation optimale. Nous proposons une approche qui ne fait pas d’hypothèse sur le type de capteur considéré, ne requiert pas de vérité-terrain et dépend seulement de méta-informations aisées à obtenir, qui exploitent des attributs partagés par la plupart des capteurs. Le modèle proposé est appelé ReCLiC, du nom en anglais des quatre dimensions sur lesquelles il repose : fiabilité, compétence, vraisemblance et crédibilité (Reliability, Competence, Likelihood et Credibility). Nous discutons les contraintes et propriétés souhaitées de ces dimensions et proposons des définitions motivées pour chacune d’entre elles. De plus, nous proposons une implémentation de la définition générique de ReCLiC pour un problème réel, dans le domaine de la signalisation ferroviaire : nous discutons de leur forme pour cette application et effectuons une analyse théorique du comportement du modèle de cotation d’information auquel elles conduisent, en examinant chaque dimension séparément. Cette implémentation est validée expérimentalement en utilisant des données simulées réalistes, générées selon un protocole expérimental permettant de contrôler les problèmes de qualité introduits. Le modèle ReCLIC est de plus mis en oeuvre sur des données ferroviaires réelles, en utilisant une méthode de visualisation originale qui permet en outre d'étudier la notion de dynamique de la confiance<br>In this thesis, the problem of assessing information quality produced by sensors is investigated. Indeed, sensors, usually used in networks, do not always provide correct information and the scoring of this information is needed. An approach is proposed that deals with some of the major limitations in the literature by providing a model designed to be sensor-generic, not dependent on ground truth and dependent only on easy-to-access meta-information, exploiting only attributes shared among the majority of sensors. The proposed model is called ReCLiC from the four dimensions that it considers: Reliability, Competence, Likelihood and Credibility. The thesis discusses in depth the requirements of these dimensions and proposes motivated definitions for each of them. Furthermore, it proposes an implementation of the generic ReCLiC definition to a real case, for a specific sensor in the railway signalling domain: the form of the four dimensions for this case is discussed and a formal and experimental study of the information scoring behaviour is performed, analysing each dimension separately. The proposed implementation of the ReCLiC model is experimentally validated using realistic simulated data, based on an experimental protocol that allows to control various quality issues as well as their quantity, Finally, the ReCLiC model is used to analyse a real datasetapplying a new visualisation method that, in addition, allows to study the notion of trust dynamic

The dissertation deals with methods that allow the use of domain knowledge to improve the quality of classifiers, where quality improvement concerns: feature extraction methods, classifier construction methods, and methods for predicting decision values for new objects. In particular the following methods have been proposed to improve the quality of classifiers: the expert features (attributes) defined using domain knowledge expressed in a language that uses the temporal logic, a new method of measuring the quality of cuts during supervised discretization using a matrix of the distances between decision attribute values defined by a domain knowledge, a new decision tree that uses redundant cuts to verify the partition of a tree node, a new method for determination of similarities between objects (e.g. patients) using an ontology defined by an expert with its application to the k-nearest neighbors classifier construction and a new method for generating cross rules describing the effect of a factor interfering perception based on a classifier. All of the aforementioned methods have been implemented in the CommoDM software library, which is one of the RSES-lib library extensions. Implemented methods have been tested on real data sets. These were comparative data sets known from the literature as well as own medical data sets collected during the preparation of the dissertation. The latter data sets are associated with the medical aspect of the dissertation that deals with the support of treatment of patients with stable ischemic heart disease, and the main medical problem considered in the thesis is the problem of predicting the presence of significant coronary artery stenosis based on non-invasive heart monitoring by Holter method. The results of experiments confirm the effectiveness of the application of additional domain knowledge in the task of creating and testing classifiers, because after the application of new methods the quality of classifiers has increased considerably. At the same time, the clinical interpretation of the results is more consistent with medical knowledge. The research has been supported by the grant DEC-2013/09/B/ST6/01568 and the grant DEC-2013/09/B/NZ5/00758, both from the National Science Centre of the Republic of Poland. Their results were published in 10 publications, including 3 publications in journals from the A list of the Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education, 3 publications indexed in the Web of Science, one chapter in a monograph and 3 post-conference publications.

This was recently extended by the so called single molecule biology. Here we compare a large property datasets including biological activity (ChEMBL, PubChem) analyzing their relation to the aforementioned representations. The question of the maximal potency of ligands inspired the development and application of ligand efficiency (LE) estimators in drug design. LE which is a ratio of IC50 to heavy atom counts (HAC) could be interpreted as a property representation type. Most often LE is analyzed as a function of HAC. Here LE is compared to the series of other properties of chemical compounds typically measured in the molar or weight scales. In the drug design literature LE has appeared controversial. This inspired the development of the new estimators: PLE, pPLE and SCORE which was described and analyzed in this work. LE could also be interpreted in a single molecule scale, defining a potency of a single HAC This represents a molecular fragmentation. The dual representation of chemical compounds by molecules and substances decides that uncertainty of such fragmentation. This uncertainty can be described by a paradox similar to the Zenon paradox referring to the uncertainty of the division of space and time .

While taking into account the field of study of performing arts, I assume that the category called „performing arts“ underwent many reforms in the 20th century, making it almost impossible to set clear boundaries between theatre, dance and performance art. Therefore I deal with their common ground that I call the zero point and that allows me to explore means of expression of human body and also time – space dimension of live action. The zero point is located in the pelvic region of the body and it is the center of stability, balance and life enegry. In my dissertation I focus on the analysis of physical trainings that work with the zero point in theater, dance and performance arts. Primary output of this work is then analysis of physicality as culturally encoded construct and the practical part of disseration is focused on the realisation of the point zero symposium.

Przedmiotem rozprawy jest analiza współczesnego słownictwa potocznego wyekscerpowanego ze źródeł leksykograficznych końca XX i początku XXI wieku. Podjęte zagadnienie włącza się w szeroki nurt badań nad stanem współczesnej polszczyzny i zjawiskiem kształtowania się nowej jakości języka, o którym coraz głośniej w debacie publicznej. Zmiany obserwowane w sferze języka, ich zasięg, charakter i dynamika, rozpatrywane są często w kontekście dewaluacji i procesów obniżających jego wartość. Źródło przeobrażeń – w powszechnej opinii – stanowią czynniki zewnętrzne, czyli masowy napływ wyrazów i struktur obcych polszczyźnie. Największą zaś ekspansywność w tym zakresie przypisuje się językowi angielskiemu. Niektóre środowiska badawcze kładą jednak większy akcent na uwarunkowania wewnętrzne, przyjmując, iż realne zagrożenie tkwi w samej polszczyźnie. Przyczyn obniżania się jakości języka upatrują w dominacji leksyki potocznej w dyskursie publicznym. Głównym zamierzeniem niniejszej rozprawy jest zatem próba odpowiedzi na pytanie, w jakim stopniu zjawisko ekspansji potoczności do innych odmian decyduje o przewartościowaniach w sferze języka. Opracowanie tak sformułowanego problemu wymagało odpowiedzi na inne pytania pomocnicze: - w jakim stopniu proces upowszechniania się elementów potocznych rejestrują słowniki języka polskiego, - w jakim stopniu potoczność w języku ogólnym zaakceptowana została przez normę językową, - czy na tym etapie rozwoju języka można mówić o rewolucyjnych przeobrażeniach systemowych (strukturalno-leksykalnych), czy przeciwnie –przekształcenia te zachodzą wyłącznie na poziomie wykorzystania zasobu leksykalnego? Rozstrzygnięcie tak sformułowanych problemów badawczych nie byłoby możliwe bez szczegółowego przeglądu współczesnego słownictwa potocznego. W pracy przeprowadzona zatem została analiza struktur włączonych do języka równolegle do zmian społeczno- -politycznych, jakie miały miejsce na przełomie XX i XXI wieku. Przyjęcie nowych wyrazów do języka rozumiane jest jako dodanie ich do zasobu słownikowego, w ten właśnie sposób uzyskały one status quo w polszczyźnie. Badania oparte zostały na materiale leksykograficznym w przekonaniu, iż każdy słownik ogólny języka narodowego jest najbardziej wiarygodnym i najdoskonalszym świadectwem aktualnego zasobu i świadomości językowej jego użytkowników. Jest to materiał wyekscerpowany z wydanego w 2003 roku Uniwersalnego słownika języka polskiego pod red. S. Dubisza [skrót: USJP] i porównany z zasobem Słownika języka polskiego pod red. W. Doroszewskiego, którego kolejne tomy ukazywały się w latach 1958–1969 [skrót: SJPD]. USJP jest największym jak dotąd po dziele opracowanym pod red. W. Doroszewskiego słownikiem języka polskiego (liczba zgromadzonych w nim haseł sięga blisko 100 tys., w SJPD – około 125 tys. jednostek) i pierwszym tak obszernym źródłem odnotowującym słownictwo polskie po zmianach ustrojowych 1989 roku. Poszczególne etapy ekscerpcji materiału polegały na wyodrębnieniu z USJP wszystkich leksemów kwalifikowanych potocznie – zarówno tych, które występują wyłącznie jako potoczne, jak i tych, dla których użycie takie jest jednym z wielu możliwych. W ten sposób zgromadzona została grupa około 17 tys. jednostek słownikowych. W kolejnym etapie leksemy te porównane zostały z zasobem SJPD, co pozwoliło wyodrębnić dwie kategorie badawcze: jednostki leksykalne, wcześniej niepoświadczone przez słownik przełomu lat 50. i 60, oraz jednostki, których definicje z SJPD rozszerzone zostały o nowe znaczenia kwalifikowane w USJP jako potoczne. W rezultacie materiał ograniczony został do grupy blisko 5 tys. wyrazów, obejmującej rzeczowniki, czasowniki, przymiotniki, przysłówki, jak również struktury o charakterze skrótów, partykuł, spójników, zaimków, przyimków, wykrzykników. Wciąż stanowiło to ogromny zasób leksykalny, trudny do przeanalizowania i opisu w ramach jednego opracowania. Z grupy tej wydzielone zatem zostały leksemy rzeczownikowe. Jako te, które najwyraźniej odzwierciedlają najnowsze tendencje słowotwórcze i neosemantyzacyjne, stały się one przedmiotem dalszego opisu. To prawie 2 tys. wyrazów: 980 notowanych dopiero w USJP jednostek leksykalnych i 845 nowych znaczeń. Podział ten wyznaczył granice tematyczne dwóch rozdziałów, z których pierwszy dotyczy analizy nowo notowanych rzeczowników, drugi – analizy semantycznej nowych znaczeń. Przeprowadzona charakterystyka słownictwa objęła dwie płaszczyzny języka: słowotwórstwo i semantykę. W rozdziale pierwszym – obok semantycznej charakterystyki nowych wyrazów – wskazane zostały najbardziej typowe dla słownictwa potocznego modele słowotwórcze. W tej części pracy nowo notowane słownictwo porównane zostało również z zasobem leksykalnym współczesnych słowników odmian stylowych polszczyzny: Słownika polszczyzny potocznej pod red. J. Anusiewicza i J. Skawińskiego (wyd. z 1996 roku) oraz z zasobem Słownika polszczyzny potocznej Macieja Czeszewskiego z 2008 roku. Notacje leksemów w wymienionych źródłach pozwoliły określić stopień utrwalenia słownictwa w nieoficjalnym nurcie polszczyzny. Charakterystyce nowych znaczeń wyrazów prowadzonej w drugim rozdziale pracy towarzyszy opis najbardziej typowych dla polszczyzny potocznej procesów neosemantyzacyjnych oraz opis przesunięć semantycznych, jakim poddane zostały poszczególne nazwy. Ten sposób potraktowania materiału pozwolił wskazać nowe obszary i kierunki ekspansji semantycznej poszczególnych grup gramatyczno-znaczeniowych, a mianowicie nazw obiektów, subiektów i abstraktów, według których prowadzona była analiza materiału. Rozdział trzeci jest próbą syntezy spostrzeżeń i wniosków, jakie wyłoniły się na różnych etapach pracy, oraz próbą nakreślenia obrazu współczesnego słownictwa potocznego i jego udziału w przeobrażeniach obyczajowo-językowych przełomu XX i XXI wieku. W tej części rozprawy wskazane zostały najnowsze tendencje językowe, zaobserwowane podczas analizy tak bogatego i różnorodnego materiału. Szczególne miejsce wśród tych tendencji zajmuje ekonomizacja języka, czyli silna dążność do skrótu i językowej zwięzłości. Znajduje ona wyraz w rosnącym udziale takich procesów językowo-myślowych, jak zespolenia jednostek, substantywizacja, uniwerbizacja czy apelatywizacja. W rozdziale tym zaobserwowane podczas badań wnioski odniesione zostały do czynników, które w debacie publicznej wskazuje się jako największe zagrożenie dla języka polskiego: wulgaryzacji, powszechności opozycyjnego wobec normy i etykiety kodu językowego oraz deprawacji języka pod wpływem struktur obcych, zwłaszcza anglo- -amerykańskich. Zagadnienia te omówione zostały w kolejnych podrozdziałach, ujęte jako hasła problemowe: wulgaryzacja języka czy wulgaryzacja zachowań językowych?, nowa grzeczność czy niegrzeczność językowa?, rola anglicyzmów w potocyzacji polszczyzny. W końcowej fazie pracy podjęta została próba zdefiniowania pojęcia nowa jakość polszczyzny i odpowiedzi na pytanie, czy na zachodzące w języku zmiany należy spoglądać przez pryzmat rozwoju i kształtowania się nowej wartości czy raczej w kontekście jego dewaluacji i zepsucia. Rozważania zamykam tezą, w świetle której u podłoża przewartościowań w sferze języka legł nieadekwatny do sytuacji komunikacyjnych sposób zagospodarowywania przez współczesnych użytkowników zasobu leksykalnego, nie zaś gwałtowny przyrost słownictwa potocznego. Zgromadzony materiał egzemplifikacyjny wykazuje bowiem, iż kształtowanie się nowej jakości języka odbywa się głównie na bazie rodzimego zasobu leksykalnego. Niska świadomość i brak poczucia estetyki językowej, zmiana systemu edukacji i ukierunkowanie jej nie na słowo, a na obraz, wszechobecność komunikacji wirtualnej i szybkie tempo życia – to najbardziej podstawowe czynniki obniżające jakość współczesnej polszczyzny.<br>The aim of this thesis is to analyze the contemporary colloquial vocabulary selected from a variety of lexicographical sources of the late twentieth and early twenty-first century. Analyzed issue can be included in the current research on the state of contemporary Polish language and the phenomenon of forming new quality of language, which is being more and more widely discussed in the public debate. Changes that can be observed in the sphere of language, their scope, nature and dynamics are often analyzed in the context of devaluation and other processes that reduce its value. In common opinion, external factors, such as the massive influx of foreign words and structures, are where these transformations come from. The biggest expansiveness in this regard is attributed to the English language. Nevertheless, some of the research communities put greater emphasis on internal conditions, assuming that the real danger lies in the Polish language itself. They perceive the reasons of declining quality of language in the fact that colloquial lexicon is becoming dominant in public discourse. The main aim of this paper is therefore an attempt to answer the question to what extent the phenomenon of colloquiality expansion to other language varieties influences the revaluations in the sphere of the language itself. Developing such problem required answering to some more auxiliary questions: - To what extent the Polish language dictionaries are capable to record the process of dissemination of colloquial elements? - To what extent the colloquiality in general language was accepted by language standards? - Whether at this stage of language development any revolutionary system transformations (structural-lexical) can be found, or the contrary – do such transformations occur only at the level of lexical use? The resolution of problems formulated above would not be possible without a thorough review of contemporary colloquial vocabulary. Therefore, the work carried out for the purpose of this thesis involved analyzing the structures included in the language in parallel to social and political changes, taking place at the turn of the twentieth and twenty-first century. The process of incorporating new words into the language is understood as adding them to a dictionary resource, so that they obtain the status quo in the Polish language. The research has been based on lexicographical material in conviction that every general dictionary of national language is the most reliable and the most perfect testimony of the current linguistic resource and linguistic awareness of its users. This material is selected from the Universal Polish Language Dictionary, edited by S. Dubisz (abbreviation: USJP), issued in 2003, and compared with the resource of the Polish Language Dictionary, edited by W. Doroszewski, which subsequent volumes were published between 1958 and 1969 (abbreviation: SJPD). After the work edited by W. Doroszewski, the USJP is so far the largest polish language dictionary (it contains almost 100 000 definitions, whereas SJPD – around 125 000) as well as the first so comprehensive source reporting Polish vocabulary after political changes in 1989. Individual stages of material selection consisted of extracting from USJP all lexemes qualified as colloquial – both those occurring only as colloquial as well as those for which such use is only one of many possible. In this process a group of 17 000 definitions was selected. In the next stage these lexemes were compared with the SJPD resource, which enabled the distinction of two research categories: lexical units previously unlisted by the dictionary from the late 50s and early 60s, and lexical units which definitions from SJPD have been extended with new meanings and classified as colloquial in USJP. As a result, the material has been confined to a group of nearly 5 000 words, including nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, as well as such structures as abbreviations, particles, conjunctions, pronouns, prepositions and exclamations. Still it was a great amount of lexical source, difficult to analyze and describe in a single study. Therefore, only substantival lexemes were selected from this group. As those most clearly reflecting the latest trends in word formation and neosemantics, they became a subject for further description. It was almost 2 000 definitions: 980 words listed only in the USJP and 845 new meanings. This division set thematic boundaries of two chapters, first of which concerns the analysis of newly listed nouns and the second – semantic analysis of new meanings. The characteristics of vocabulary, carried out for the purpose of this thesis, covered two levels of language: word formation and semantics. The first chapter – apart from semantic characteristic of new definitions – also indicated a number of word formation models that are most typical for colloquial vocabulary. In this part of the thesis the newly listed definitions were also compared with a lexical resource recorded in various contemporary dictionaries of Polish language: the Polish Colloquial Language Dictionary, edited by J. Anusiewicz and J. Skawina (published in 1996), and the Polish Colloquial Language Dictionary, edited by M. Czeszewski (published in 2008). Notations of these lexemes in mentioned resources helped to determine the degree of vocabulary fixation in the current unofficial Polish language. The characteristics of new meanings of words conducted in the second chapter is accompanied by the description of the most common neosemantic processes, occurring in the Polish colloquial language. It also contains a description of semantic shifts, which individual words have been subjected to. Such way of proceeding the material enabled the identification of new areas and directions of semantic expansion of individual grammatical-semantic groups, such as objects, subjects and abstracts, according to which the material analysis was conducted. The third chapter is an attempt to synthesize the findings and conclusions that emerged at different stages of work. It is also an attempt to outline the image of contemporary colloquial vocabulary and its part in lifestyle- and linguistic transformations at the turn of the XX and XXI century. The latest language trends, observed during the analysis of such rich and diverse material, have been indicated in this part of the thesis. The economization of language, which means a strong aspiration to achieve linguistic brevity, holds a special position among the trends mentioned above. This tendency is being reflected by the increasing importance of such linguistic and thought processes as anastomosis of lexemes, substantivization, replacement of two-word name with one-word name or transformation of specific names into common ones. Moreover, in the third chapter the conclusions reached throughout the research are compared to the factors, which are considered the Polish language greatest threat, such as vulgarization, popularity of a linguistic code opposition to linguistic norms and standards, and depravity of language structures resulting from foreign influences, especially English and American. These issues, formulated as problems, are discussed in the following subsections: vulgarization of language or vulgarization of language behaviour?, new politeness or linguistic rudeness?, the role of anglicisms in colloquialization of the Polish language. In the final stage of work the attempt was made to define the concept of a new quality of Polish language and to answer the question whether linguistic changes should be seen through the prism of development and an advent of new value, or rather in the context of its devaluation and damage. I conclude my considerations with the thesis, according to which it is a way of managing our lexical sources which is inadequate to the communication situation that underlies the revaluations in the sphere of language rather than the current rapid increase in vocabulary. In fact the exemplary material that has been collected for the purpose of this paper shows that the development of a new quality of the language is mainly based on the native lexical source. Low awareness and lack of sense of linguistic aesthetics, change in educational system and its focus on the image rather than the word, the omnipresence of virtual communications and the fast pace of life are the most basic factors reducing the quality of contemporary Polish language.<br>Wydział Filologiczny.

Umowa powierzenia przetwarzania danych osobowych jest instrumentem prawa prywatnego, ściśle powiązanym z prawem publicznym, służącym ochronie szczególnego dobra, jakim są informacje dotyczące osób fizycznych, kwalifikowane jako dane osobowe. Instrument ten kształtuje relacje między uczestnikami procesów przetwarzania danych osobowych (administratorem, podmiotem przetwarzającym i podmiotem podprzetwarzającym). Umowa powierzenia nie ma charakteru samodzielnego – musi być związana z innym stosunkiem prawnym (umowa zasadnicza), w ramach którego dochodzi do sytuacji, gdy administrator danych przekazuje zewnętrznemu podmiotowi przetwarzanie danych osobowych w jego imieniu i na jego polecenie, co reguluje umowa powierzenia. W pierwszej kolejności wyjaśnienia wymagają pojęcia informacji, danych osobowych, przetwarzania danych i powierzenia przetwarzania danych osobowych. Szczegółowych rozważań wymaga charakterystyka prawna umowy powierzenia przetwarzania danych osobowych oraz jej elementów konstrukcyjnych. Ponadto na uwagę zasługuje zastosowanie przedmiotowej umowy oraz funkcje, jakie pełni ona w obrocie. Dopełnieniem rozważań jest kwestia odpowiedzialności ponoszonej przez uczestników procesów przetwarzania danych osobowych. Umowa powierzenia przetwarzania danych osobowych jest instrumentem ochrony danych osobowych gwarantującym ochronę interesów stron umowy oraz praw osób, których powierzone dane dotyczą.<br>The contract on processing personal data on behalf of data controller is an instrument of private, as well as public law.

Ochrona danych osobowych bezwzględnie wiąże się z prawem do prywatności i stanowi szczególny instrument ochrony tych interesów jednostki, które są związane z jej życiem prywatnym. Podstawową regulacją w Polsce zakresie ochrony danych osobowych jest ustawa z dnia 29 sierpnia 1997 r. o ochronie danych osobowych, w której ustawodawca kompleksowo unormował zagadnienia z obszaru ochrony danych osobowych człowieka, zdefiniował podstawowe pojęcia i instytucje odnoszące się do ochrony prywatności jednostki oraz wprowadził prawne mechanizmy kontroli i ochrony danych osób fizycznych. GIODO zajmuje ważną pozycję w systemie organów państwa i odgrywa istotną rolę w procesach ochrony autonomii informacyjnej człowieka. Powierzono mu zadania, jakich wcześniej nie wykonywał żaden inny organ. Pojawienie się takiego organu w Polsce podniosło rangę ważności problematyki ochrony danych osobowych jednostki. Od początku jego istnienia okazuje się on ważnym elementem w systemie ochrony praw i wolności w Polsce, a jego pozycja oraz zakres przyznanych mu kompetencji upoważniają do stwierdzenia, iż w istotny sposób wpływa na przestrzeganie przepisów ustawy o ochronie danych osobowych i stanowi realizację praw podmiotowych w zakresie ochrony prywatności jednostki.<br>Protection of personal data strictly associated with the right to privacy and a special instrument to protect the interests of individuals who are related to her private life.

The diploma thesis "Dance as a Manifestation of Devotion, its History and Use in the Christian Liturgy" enquires into the phenomenon of dance in the context of Christian culture. It outlines the development of the religious dance in the history of mankind, its forms and modes of perception in different cultures and religions. The thesis also deals with dance as an expression of faith in Jewish culture whence the Christian liturgical dance often drew inspiration and thus went back to its own roots. It seeks to explore the positive attitudes of believers towards dance, but also the mistrust that accompanied dance throughout the history of Christianity. Additionally, the paper presents the situation of dance in the contemporary Christian culture on different continents (Europe, America, Africa), to pursue finally the question of dance as a manifestation of devotion in the Czech Republic. Based on the collected material, the thesis seeks to present the deep potential of dance that make believers express through gestures and movements their respect to God, their joy and anxiety, grief and hope, and thus can, alongside music and singing, enrich the liturgy to a great extent. Keywords Dance, gesture, liturgy, prayer, expression.

Title: Description of somatotype as part of sports performance in sports dance. Objectives: Create images of selected portions of the structure of sport performance in sport dancing. Help everyone in this sport. Establish model Czech dance couples in the world's top closer, only with a certain measurement for certain segments of the exercise. Methods: For the Purposes of this paper we will work with methods: analysis of scientific literature, the method of interviewing, observation method. Results: The aim was to show the close similarity between the partners and partner dancing couples individually and as a whole. These results I was able to prove (the differences were minimal). Based on my research, it is possible to generalize the model, which is important for dance and sport for all athletes who want to get closer world leaders. Keywords: Sports performance, sports dance, posture, BMI, WHR, height, weight, Latin American and Standard dances, somatotype.

The thesis is based on a field research carried out on Java primarily in communities gathered around the ritual dance called jathilan - an ancient, exorcistic and unique trance dance which operates with a binary opposition of good and bad forces. The aim is to extend the field of knowledge about this ritual and to enrich the existing sources of the insight into the issue of participation in jathilan and related factors. Interviews with research participants bring unique testimonies that are set into the context of the Javanese rural community. The central topic of the study is the motivation and the experience of the participants of jathilan with emphasis on the central motif of jathilan - trance and kesurupan (obsession). Great space is also devoted to the religious dimension of the jatihlan and its reflection by the participants themselves. The thesis approaches this phenomenon from three perspectives: 1) As a way to strengthen local communities, popular culture and regional cultural identity. 2) As a manifestation of religious syncretism on Java and how this syncretism is reflected by the main actors in Jathilan. 3) As a dynamic social, artistic and religious phenomenon under transformative conditions. All these perspectives are examined by the optics of jathilan participants, analyzed and set...

The thesis focuses on the fusion of theoretical knowledge of visual art and dance art. The practical use of this knowledge has resulted in the realization of presented dance choreographies which are inspired by non-traditional artistic forms such as performance or happening, and are using their methods. The key point of the whole thesis is the movement, which is seen as a crucial part of the dance and visual arts, as well as a primary essence of the human existence. My work also shows how the theme of movement can be used when working with children. In various etudes with children, it includes various art techniques (drawing, painting, spatial creation). The practical part focuses on the expression of human emotions through the specific movements of the body, in the form of dance choreographies. It also uses new technologies, where photographs and video footage serve as an output. At the same time, the thesis shows the process of collaboration with other artists and necessary communication with them, which represents one of the crucial parts of the origin of an art work and one important chapter of this work as well. Taking account of specifics of both attitudes the aim of my thesis was to connect the fundamental components of visual art and dance which has together created a new perspective and...

This thesis deals with the musical and dance style known as "Salsa" which roots can be traced to the Caribbean of Latin America. In this work, salsa is investigated as a global phenomenon in the local context of Prague and at the same time as a commercialized product. In terms of salsa as a global phenomenon, the work deals with the characteristics of salsa as a social dance in the local context and tries to trace its social functions. In addition to the effects of the commercialization and tropicalized ideas of salsa and Latin American cultures on its form, the thesis also touches on topics such as internal negotiation and external construction of Latin American identity (latinidad), which are related to salsa as a global phenomenon and its commercialization. The work is based on several months of ethnographic research and semi- structured interviews conducted mainly with salseros from Latin America, the Czech Republic and others, not only European countries. Key words: salsa, social dance, global phenomenon, commercialization, product, commodification of culture, Latin American identity, latinidad , tropicalization, imagination

The thesis' subject is the career of Gustav Voborník, a reliable dancer and an accomplished choreographer, in the J. K. Tyl Theatre in Pilsen from 1968 till 1981. The chief part of the thesis deals with the total of nineteen ballet productions that Voborník created in the Pilsen theatre in his lifetime. A brief introduction discussing the problem of sources in this field of research is followed by a biography of Gustav Voborník, detailing his experience as a dancer and as a choreographer as well as his preparation for a production and for a work with dancers. To complement the overview of Voborník's artistic work, this part also features chapters dedicated to various ensembles that helped shape his artistic personality: the Czechoslovak State Song and Dance Ensemble and the Vít Nejedlý Army Artistic Ensemble. The final chapter before the part describing Voborník's Pilsen works as a choreographer is a short one introducing his views of the folklore, since folk dances and culture in general are the sources of many of his choreographies, while the 2nd half of the 20th century is known as an era of substantial shift in the perception and practice of folk traditions.

Annotation: This thesis aims to reveal to the general public, what dance is in the eyes of professional dancers, and to recommend ballroom dancing as one of the very good ways to meaningfully use their free time. The aim is to find out how pupils and students under 20 years of age spend their free time and how they perceive dance as a leisure activity. This work is divided into theoretical and empirical part. In the theoretical part, I explain the concept of free time and the importance of meaningful use of it. Further, I detail the history of dance, which shows why people started to dance and what it yields to them. The theoretical part also includes information about the dance sport, institutions providing dance training, sports nutrition, and also the fact that dance can help and heal. The empirical part is devoted to questionnaires measuring how much of their free time children spend on dance activities, and guided interviews with professional dancers who let us peek into their dance world. These dancers will answer the questions: why dancing became their way of life, what positives and negatives it brings, what is so beautiful and liberating about the dance, and also why a place called Blackpool is often mentioned in the dance environment.

In her doctoral thesis the author would like to present the play Yoshitsune and the Thousand Cherry trees (Yoshitsune senbonzakura) as a unique piece of Japanese drama which has a great complexity and an outstanding place within the corpus of Japanese literature. Even if the play can be compared to Chushingura mono in its importance, Yoshitsune senbonzakura has not been widely translated to western languages. There are two exceptions, however: the English translation (Jones, Jr. 1993) and the German translation (Klopfenstein 1982). While comparing the two translations and using the most full original texts available (as preserved in Takeda Izumo and Namiki Sosuke Joruri Collection and Yuda Yoshio's Bunraku Joruri Collection), the author's goal is to present the play to Czech readers and its interpretation to Czech scholars. As for the flow and structure of the interpretation of Yoshitsune senbonzakura the author begins with the historical background of the legend of Minamoto Yoshitsune, capturing the life of Yoshitsune from the time of Heiji rebellion (1159) when he was born to his death in 1189. Next the author concentrates on the legend itself as it evolved within the course of Japanese literature. With a shift from the court literature of Heian period towards the battlefield stories and...

This master thesis deals with the affair Spiegel from 1962 and the Czech Television-Crisis from the turn 2000 and 2001. Both cases are compared by the conceptual approach of democratic consolidation from the Juan Linz's and Alfred Stepan's work The Problems of Democratic Transition and Consolidation (Baltimore, 1996). The analysis aims to find out whether German Federal Republic in 1962 and the Czech Republic on the start of the third millennium fulfilled the first three Linz's and Stepan's criteria of a consolidated democracy. The theoretical chapter highlights some of alternative approaches and discussions about democratic consolidation as an analytical tool in comparative politics.
