A pesquisa que realizei se concentrou em minha avó materna Akie Sakasegawa Matsuyama e suas famílias: seus pais e irmãos (Sakasegawa) e seu marido e filhos (Matsuyama). Não conheci meu avô Hideo Matsuyama. Talvez este estudo seja a maneira que encontrei de conhecer um pouco de sua história. Concentrei-me principalmente no espólio de Akie Sakasegawa Matsuyama, que compreende cartas, fotos avulsas e álbuns fotográficos, e na coleção fotográfica de sua mãe, Ine Narita Sakasegawa. Conduzi entrevistas não estruturadas, com fotografias, com diversos membros de sua família, nuclear e estendida, no Brasil e no Japão. Através desse material, pude vislumbrar os meios pelos quais as relações familiares foram mantidas após a imigração para o Brasil. O principal intuito do trabalho foi questionar o papel da fotografia nas trocas interpessoais entre as famílias no Japão e no Brasil. E, dessa forma, entender as ligações entre os retratos fotográficos e a noção de identidade que os imigrantes tinham de si mesmos. Por se tratar de um estudo sobre a família, a minha família, tentei utilizar metodologias concernentes à antropologia reflexiva, ou seja, procurei deixar claro que sou eu quem faz as reflexões e escreve sobre elas. Assim, muitos pontos podem dar margens à discórdia, muitas afirmações são escolhas que tive de fazer em função do texto. Uma vez que este estudo se refere à vida íntima de membros de minha família que, em sua maioria, não tive o privilégio de conhecer, boa parte do texto está aberta a outras interpretações. Tentei não impor minha visão demasiadamente, procurei estar aberto o suficiente para ouvir sem preconceitos o que os informantes me comunicaram. Busquei, enfim, seguir os rastros deixados por meus antepassados e ser fiel ao que pude vislumbrar. Este é um trabalho cuja intenção é preservar a memória das histórias e dos afetos compartilhados pelos imigrantes japoneses e suas famílias. Através de materiais permeados por amor e amizade, fotos e cartas, tentei compreender as relações íntimas entre os imigrantes de minha família materna. / This research focused on my maternal grandmother, Akie Sakasegawa Matsuyama, and her families: her parents and siblings (Sakasegawa) and her husband and children (Matsuyama). I did not know my grandfather, Hideo Matsuyama. Maybe this study is a way I found to know a little about his life history. My main focus was on the state of Akie Sakasegawa Matsuyama, encompassing letters, photographs and photographic albums, and on the photographic collection of her mother, Ine Narita Sakasegawa. I conducted several non-structured interviews, using photographs, with members of her family, nuclear and extended, in Brazil and in Japan. All this material helped me to understand the means by which the familial relationships were maintained after the migration to Brazil. The main purpose of this work was to question the roles of photography in the interpersonal exchanges between the families in Japan and in Brazil, and try to figure out the liaisons between photographic portraits and the sense of identity the immigrants had of themselves. Once this is a study about the family my family I felt the need to make use of methodologies within reflexive anthropology. I wanted to make it clear that I´m the one thinking about these issues and writing about them. In this aspect, in many instances, there is room for disagreements; many of the statements I support are choices I had to make in order to write a somewhat coherent text. Because this is a study about the intimate life of members of my family I did not have the chance to meet or interview, a lot of my assumptions are open to interpretation. Nonetheless, I tried not to force my points of view in an exaggerated fashion, I wanted to be open enough to listen without preconceptions what the interviewees told me. Thus, I tried to follow the threads left by my ancestors and be faithfull to everything I could find. The objective of this work is to preserve the memory of the histories and endearments shared by the Japanese immigrants and their families. Using materials that are fulfilled with love and friendship photos and letters I tried to comprehend the intimate relationships between the immigrants and their families.

This diploma thesis deals with family memory of 1950s Czechoslovak political prisoners. Its two major questions are: Is there a well preserved story in an actual family memory of a family ancestor who was politically persecuted and imprisoned in the period after 1948 and is his story preserved without significant shifts from reality? Given topic is being analyzed throughout a story of three particular families - those of Bedřich Fučík, Ladislav Jehlička and Karel Procházka. These three political prisoners died already, therefore were the subject of examination records of three generations of their descendents. Primary sources for this thesis are thus personal interviews with these family members. Both archive sources and original texts written byl Bedřich Fučík and Ladislav Jehlička were also used. Individual interviews have shown that a story of their ancestor is well perserved in family memory, but every particular family or narrator have their own specificities. Some narrators have shown major shifts from reality, whereas others have not. Key words political prisoners, 1950s, family memory, communist regime, oral history

essay deals with Josef Jedlička’s family chronicle Krev není voda (‘Blood is no water’), regarding the genealogical figures of thought which structure the text and organize the narration of family history. It examines how the Czech author adapts and redefines the traditional genre of the family chronicle for his writing purposes, as well as to what extent the reconstruction of one’s own family history and the narrative about social origin interlock. The thesis is that Krev není voda is an interesting example of a Central European family chronicle that works with a deterministic concept of origin and distinguishes itself from nostalgic, mythologizing, representations of one’s own family history.

The diploma thesis deals with affirmative approaches in the primary school system, with a focus being placed on educating Roma pupils. It includes the historical context that is important to gain an understanding of the issues in this area, and concentrates on the concept of the Roma Integration Strategy for 2015-2020, presenting the objectives of the Strategy aimed at supporting the education of the Roma. The determinants that have an impact on the process of educating Roma pupils - the family and school in particular - are characterised. Furthermore, the significance of the affirmative approaches playing a major role in achieving social integration and facilitating the creation of equal opportunities for the Roma in education, including employment and social involvement, is illustrated. The last chapter of the thesis aims to evaluate the preparatory class, which is among compensatory approaches to Roma pupils in danger of social exclusion, and verifies whether a two-year education in the preparatory class can compensate for Roma children's delayed psychomotor development before they enter the first grade. A questionnaire for teachers who work with these pupils on a long-term basis was used as the research tool. A comparison of the children's results before entering and after finishing the...
