The content of the thesis is an architectural study, which proposes a new use of the grounds of the VUT area on Kraví hora. The aim was to combine the interests of VUT and the City of Brno in this extraordinary territory for the benefit of both subjects. The study addresses not only the VUT land, but also the whole area of Kraví hora, which is one of the unique green spaces in the center of Brno. The High School of Technology at Kraví Hora is one of the most valuable areas of the city of Brno. Just like the rest of Kravi hora. But we are talking about a territory that is scattered over several sub-sections. The biggest problem of the whole mountain is impenetrability and lack of solidarity. Kraví hora is a place that has served history, relaxation, afternoon activities and family trips. Today, it is mainly used as a gardening colony - the private sector. From another part there are spaces that are leased to different companies and private owners. However, the use of these spaces, in most cases, does not correspond to the character that has long since existed. Another problem is poor transport accessibility, low capacity of parking spaces and large distances from the area to public transport stops. In the interest of the City of Brno, cultivation of the Kraví hora as urban green space and the creation of a whole green park, which will serve primarily the public.

To this end, headlines expressing veiled eroticism or obscenity from the popular sensationalist newspaper Meia Hora, published during the Olympic Games of London 2012, were selected as corpus of analysis. The research is founded on the study of Preti (2010) about the discourse based on veiled sexualization and obscenities; on the methodology principles of the French school of Discourse Analysis developed by Maingueneau (2010, 2013), supported by Bakhtin (1992, 1997) and on the studies about human interaction by Grice (1982), Goffman (1967) Brown and Levinson (1987); on Ducrot's (1977, 1987) studies of Linguistic Semantics and on the theory developed by Raskin (1985, 1992) inserted into a new interactional social-cognitive perspective of Text Linguistics, that formulates the semantic-linguistic mechanism of humor. In the present work, we observe that the discourse of veiled sexualization and obscenities explores a semantic-linguistic resource that, at the same time, leads to laughter. This resource is based on the partnership between reader and newspaper, in a way that veiled obscenity and humor are explored in the elaboration of sensationalist headlines to recreate the notified facts, as a strategy to produce empathy and closeness, to please a particular readership who shares the same social values and has linguistic competence to take part in a playful usage of language / A presente dissertação tem por objetivo principal o estudo dos mecanismos linguístico-discursivos envolvidos na instauração do discurso da malícia e do humor nas manchetes jornalísticas, para a compreensão mais profunda do mecanismo de construção de sentido desses textos. Para tanto, foram selecionadas, como corpus de análise, as manchetes maliciosas do jornal popular sensacionalista Meia Hora, veiculadas no período dos Jogos Olímpicos de Londres em 2012. A pesquisa fundamenta-se no estudo de Preti (2010) sobre o discurso da malícia; nos princípios da metodologia da Análise do Discurso de linha francesa desenvolvidos por Maingueneau (2010, 2013), apoiado em Bakhtin (1992, 1997) e nos estudos sobre interação humana de Grice (1982), Goffman (1967) e Brown e Levinson (1987); na Semântica Linguística dos estudos de Ducrot (1977, 1987) e na teoria desenvolvida por Raskin (1985, 1991), inserida em uma perspectiva sociocognitiva interacional da Linguística Textual, que formula o mecanismo semântico-linguístico do humor. No presente trabalho observamos que o discurso da malícia dispõe de um expediente semântico-linguístico que, ao mesmo tempo, leva ao riso e baseia-se na cumplicidade entre leitor e jornal, de forma que a malícia e o humor são explorados na elaboração das manchetes sensacionalistas para recriar os fatos noticiados, como uma estratégia para produzir empatia, aproximação e agradar a um determinado público leitor, que partilha dos mesmos valores sociais e que tem competência linguística e cômica para participar de um jogo lúdico com a linguagem

In light of the established criticism of this piece of literature, we attempt to uncover what innovative ideas the story of Macabéa brings to the Clarice Lispector literary project. The Hour of the Star re-calibrated the literary form developed by the writer the moment the misery of Macabéa became the central theme of the novel. Through careful examination of the events of Macabéa s life, a Young woman, orignally from the northeast of Brazil, that works as typist despite being semi-illiterate, who later lives in Rio de Janeiro, we attempt to better comprehend the perspective of Rodrigo S.M., narrator/character of the novel. Following this examination it becomes evident that the narrator is committed to material issues such as class, culture and his profession as a writer. One issue faced by Clarice Lispector, as with other writers, is to find a literary form with which to represent this historic time in Brazilian history that was marked by a military dictatorship. Far from only being a discussion centered on the representation of material content, The Hour of the Star is the moment in Clarice Lispector s body of literary work where her writing gains weight and density in a mature and conscience way. In this context, it is necessary to analyse Rodrigo S.M. as a formal solution of a novel that accomplished a settlement with its time and its social experience. The reader of the novel, cannot forget that the caracters of The Hour of the Star, as well the narrator are, for Clarice Lispector, figures of a piece of literarture that eagerly desire to respond to its time and to the social experience that inspired her / Esta dissertação de mestrado, cujo objeto de investigação é A Hora da Estrela, de Clarice Lispector, visa analisar as relações entre Rodrigo S.M. e Macabéa, respectivamente narrador e protagonista desse romance. À luz da fortuna crítica dessa literatura, pretende-se analisar qual a novidade que a história de Macabéa apresenta para o projeto literário de Clarice Lispector. O romance A Hora da Estrela parece redimensionar as pesquisas formais desenvolvidas pela escritora ao longo de sua obra, a partir do instante em que a miséria, à qual Macabéa está destinada, se torna o tema central da figuração. Apoiados na análise da história desta jovem nordestina, datilógrafa semi-analfabeta, habitante do Rio de Janeiro, ambicionamos avaliar de que maneira os acontecimentos vivenciados por Macabéa fornecem subsídios para que compreendamos a posição de Rodrigo S.M., narrador/personagem do romance. Narrador que vê o seu relato comprometido com questões materiais evidentes como: classe social, cultura e profissão. O problema desloca-se para o exame das relações entre matéria histórica e forma literária. Longe de ser uma discussão centrada na representação dos conteúdos materiais, A Hora da Estrela é o espaço literário em que a pesquisa formal, na produção literária de Clarice Lispector, ganha corpo e densidade, de modo maduro e consciente. O leitor do romance não pode esquecer que não só as personagens de A Hora da Estrela, mas também o seu narrador são, para Clarice Lispector, figurações de uma literatura que deseja responder ao seu tempo e à experiência social que a motivou

[pt] O Evangelho segundo João desperta grande interesse pelas alusões, em preferência às citações, que faz do Antigo Testamento para anunciar a Boa Nova de Jesus, o Filho de Deus. Localizada na primeira unidade deste Evangelho, que aponta para a hora de Jesus, a perícope de Jo 3,1-12 é a primeira grande seção do diálogo com Nicodemos, um fariseu e um principal dentre os judeus, ali representando seus pares. O anúncio de um novo nascimento necessário de água e espírito, por obra do Espírito, para que se possa participar do escatológico Reino de Deus, é incompreendido por Nicodemos. A repreensão que lhe é dirigida evidencia que na base do anúncio está algum texto das Escrituras de Israel. A presente pesquisa encontrou texto próximo daquele em Ez 36,24-28, onde, ao disperso e desolado Israel, o Senhor promete purificação total e profunda renovação pela infusão do Seu espírito. A dissertação procedeu à análise exegética de Jo 3,1-12, situando-a em seu contexto amplo e imediato, à análise exegética de Ez 36,24-28 e à análise das relações intertextuais entre os dois, segundo os critérios de Markl. Os resultados apontaram significativas correspondências: em ambos se encontra o Senhor em diálogo com o Povo da Antiga Aliança, após o juízo sobre Jerusalém e o Templo, anunciando a salvação escatológica que se cumprirá para o Israel renovado, não necessariamente os descendentes na carne dos israelitas. Mas, o anúncio de João ultrapassa o de Ezequiel: os que recebem o Espírito Santo nascem como filhos de Deus. / [en] The Gospel according to John arouses great interest in the allusions of the Old Testament, in preference to the quotations, to announce the gospel of Jesus, the Son of God. Located in the first unit of this Gospel, which points to the hour of Jesus, Jn 3:1-12 is the first great section of the dialogue with Nicodemus, a Pharisee and a principal among the Jews, representing his peers there. The announcement of a necessary new birth of water and spirit, by the Spirit, to participate in the eschatological Kingdom of God, is misunderstood by Nicodemus. The rebuke directed to him shows that there s some text of Israel Scriptures at the base of the announcement. This research found a similar text in Eze 36:24-28, in which the Lord promisses, to the scattered and desolated Israel, total purification and deep renewal by the infusion of His spirit. The dissertation proceeded to the exegetical analysis of Jn 3:1-12, placing it in its broad and immediate context, to the exegetical analysis of Eze 36:24-28 and to the analysis of the intertextual relations between them, according to Markl s criteria. The results point to significant correspondences: in both the Lord is in dialogue with the People of the Old Covenant, after the judgment on Jerusalem and the Temple, announcing the eschatological salvation to be fulfilled for the renewed Israel, not necessarily descendants in the flesh of the israelites. But John s announcement goes beyond Ezekiel s: those who receive the Holy Spirit are born as children of God.

Tereza Kolmačková Votive offerings at selected Catholic pilgrimage sites: Theoretical reflection and anlysis of extant examples Abstract The aim of my thesis is to analyse votive offerings at Catholic Marian pilgrimage sites mainly from the early modern period. Firstly I discuss Marian images at pilgrimage sites to show who were the votive offering brought to and to describe a broader context of their placement. The thesis is then focused on analysis of textual evidence from the 17th century relating to the Czech pilgrimage site Svatá Hora and of extant objects mainly from Bavaria. Based on these sources the most common types of votive offerings seem to be painted pictures, models of body parts, statues and figures, candles and jewelry, other objects, however, occur as well. The votive offerings were mostly donated to express gratitude for a miracle. Therefore, the miracle process is also shortly discussed in my thesis. Votive offerings did not, however, only show the gratitude of a devotee but it seems that their promise was needed for Virgin Mary to perform a miracle. My analysis suggests that very important aspects of votive offerings were their performative character and the power to create and maintain relationships with Virgin Mary and other pilgrims.

Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / The present study aims at investigating, under the perspective of Critical Genre Analysis (MEURER, 2002; 2006; MOTTA-ROTH, 2005; 2006) and based on studies about science and its popularization (SOUZA SANTOS, 2006; VOGT, 2003; 2010; MOTTA-ROTH, 2009; 2010), the configuration of texts that popularize research in the area of Informatics, by trying to identify the conditions of production, distribution and consumption in Zero Hora newspaper. This study is based on the importance of analyzing discourses to qualify the language teaching. As a Portuguese language teacher, I understand that I need to position myself as a discourse analyst in order to contribute in the critical formation of Basic Education students. Critical Genre Analysis articulates three theoretical perspectives of social approaches in language studies: the socio-rhetorical theory (SWALES, 1990; 2004), Systemic-Functional Linguistics (HALLIDAY, 1978; HALLIDAY; HASAN, 1989) and Critical Discourse Analysis (FAIRCLOUGH, 1992; 1999; 2001; 2002; 2003). The research corpus is composed by 27 science popularization texts from the field of Informatics, published in the Economy section of Zero Hora newspaper in 2009. The analytical procedures adopted involved the study of the context and texts. In the contextual analysis, conducted through bibliographical studies selection, documental data available in the newspaper website and interview with the producer of the Economy section in the studied media, I try to identify and interpret the contexts of culture and situation of the newspaper. In the textual analysis, I describe and interpret how two analytical categories are configured: rhetorical organization and intertextuality. The results indicate that Zero Hora newspaper produces news, news report, and infomercial, a hybrid genre (FARICLOUGH, 2001, p. 149) which merges characteristics from the news and advertisement genres in the recontextualization of reports of research conclusions in the Field of Informatics. These discursive events are considered hybrid genres because they combine marks of journalistic, scientific and pedagogic discourses which point to an approach of commodification. / O presente estudo procura investigar, sob a ótica da Análise Crítica de Gênero (MEURER, 2002; 2006; MOTTA-ROTH, 2005; 2006) e com base em estudos sobre ciência e sua popularização (SOUZA SANTOS, 2006; VOGT, 2003; 2010; MOTTAROTH, 2009; 2010), a configuração dos textos que popularizam pesquisas da área de Informática, tentando identificar as condições de produção, distribuição e consumo no jornal Zero Hora. Este estudo se fundamenta na importância de analisar discursos para qualificar o ensino de linguagem. Como professora de língua materna, entendo que devo posicionar-me como analista do discurso para contribuir na formação crítica de estudantes da Educação Básica. A Análise Crítica de Gênero articula três aportes teóricos de vertentes sociais dos estudos da linguagem: a Socior-retórica (SWALES, 1990; 2004) a Linguística Sistêmico-Funcional (HALLIDAY, 1978; HALLIDAY; HASAN, 1989) e a Análise Crítica do Discurso (FAIRCLOUGH, 1992; 1999; 2001; 2002; 2003). O corpus da pesquisa é composto por 27 textos de popularização da ciência, da área de Informática, publicados na seção de Economia do jornal Zero Hora em 2009. Os procedimentos analíticos adotados envolveram o estudo do contexto e do texto. Na análise contextual, realizada a partir da seleção de estudos bibliográficos, de dados documentais disponíveis no site do jornal e de entrevista realizada com o produtor da seção de Economia da mídia em estudo, procuro identificar e interpretar o contexto de cultura e de situação do jornal Zero Hora. Na análise textual, descrevo e interpreto como se configuram duas categorias analíticas: a organização retórica e a intertextualidade. Os resultados indicam que o jornal Zero Hora produz notícia, reportagem e infomercial, um gênero híbrido (FARICLOUGH, 2001, p. 149) que mescla características dos gêneros notícia e de anúncio, na recontextualização de relatos de conclusões de pesquisas da área de Informática. Esses eventos discursivos são considerados gêneros híbridos por combinarem marcas do discurso jornalístico, do científico, do pedagógico e que apontam para uma abordagem de comodificação.

The topic of the diploma thesis BUT Area Kravi hora is a strategic study of the BUT area at Kravi hora from the previous semester to a scale of 1:200. The subject is the elaboration of the concept in order to bring together the interests of BUT and Brno city in this extraordinary territory for the benefit of both subjects. This work deals in detail with newly proposed objects in the BUT territory. A number of regulations have been issued in the territory limiting the subsequent use of the area, but the current area does not suit the existing potential of the site. The main concept was a creation of a set of buildings that will serve the University for representation and public activities, while allowing the access and use of the general public by the inhabitants of the city of Brno. The whole site will be set up in a newly-built city-wide park and other park areas that will create an attractive part of the now-inaccessible and unspoilt area connecting Veveri with Kravi hora. There will also be added additional features inspired by the existing features in the area, namely the Art Colony with ateliers, then Business Units and spacious Public Workshops. The entire Kravi hora area will be interwoven with a number of services serving both adults and children. The new proposal will also lead to the diversion of car traffic from the whole territory in order to ensure the safest relaxed movement of visitors. There will be numerous parking spaces located on the outskirts of the area. The main goal is to create a strong concept focusing on relaxation, health, education and sport, which should result in the overall opening and attractiveness of the territory.

The aim of my diploma thesis is to solve vehicle traffic safety and technical conditions on road I/43, research specific dangerous parts, subsequent evaluationandprocessing of individualpoint defects. It´s a 10km long section between Milonice and Krhov, approximately25km north from Brno. In total I found 4 defect points, which should be solved before realization of new motorway project R/43, which will replace existing I/43. The first defect point is in close proximity of Milonice village, there is an inconvenient intersection of I/43 with III/31775. There is a huge traffic intensity on road I/43 and an absence of turning lane on the left side. Second defect point is in village Závist, where is unsuitable connection from MK to I/43 and behind village is big longitudinalinclination, which is not suitable for slow vehicles. Third defect point is concerning the area between Závist and Černá Hora villages. There are unsuitable directional, high-altitude solutions, longitudinal inclinations and a crosswise arranged road. The last defect point is the horizon on road I/43 near village Krhov, this part of the road is the most dangerous section. On the horizon is an unsuitably planned project with a combination of directional, high-altitude solutions and transverse arrangement of roads with non-standard finishes ascending road lanes. I tried to solved defect points in the best possible way and to depict suggested action.

The master thesis covers the topic of memorials of the victims of the Great War in the district of Kutná Hora. History of the memorials since their unveiling to the present day will also be taken into account. The differences in the memorials (e.g. in iconography) men in k.u.k. army and in the legions, will be researched. As one of the district's cities, Čáslav, was also the resident city of the 12th landwehr and the 21st infantry regiment of the k. u. k. army, the thesis has the ambition to find out, whether there was any sign of it in the memorials around the city.

The way men and women into municipal politics of Kutna Hora. This work focuses on the motivation and the reasons why men and women to enter municipal politics a medium-sized cities such as Kutna Hora. I put emphasis on issues of participation in the political representation of both sexes. What are the obstacles to municipal politicians to meet at the entrance to the policies and the active participation in political office. I introduced myself to municipal politics in the Czech Republic looks like and what powers and responsibilities councilors city. In the empirical part, I introduced our own research and put a short excursion into the history of Kutna Hora. Obtained through interviews with municipal politicians and politicians were analyzed through three levels of coding. I started from the thesis of Marcela Adamusová, which dealt with master suppression techniques techniques and compared my results with her. Keywords: women, men, gender, municipal politics, local government of Kutná Hora, councilors, master suppression techniques, political reprezentation, barriers.
