The aim of my thesis is to analyze testimony of narrators from the perspective of scientific psychoanalysis. The thesis will also focus on memory which is at the origin of human thoughts and potential fiction. The thesis is not given only deals strictly by lies but also forgetting which stands for adjusting or accidental embellishing the truth. The aim of my thesis is also determine the extent to memory. Thought is responsible for the inaccuracy of information and understanding the lie was said in full consciousness and with the clear intention fiction and conceals the true past.

In my diploma thesis I describe the process, in which some episodes of the radio program Příběhy 20. století are made and with this example I explain, which factors can influence remembering in a medium of the public sphere and how "lieux de mémoire" occur in its broadcasting. I examine the recording of some of the narratives that can possibly be presented in the radio program, how the interviewers handle the interviewees and what motivation do they have to work in a project like this. I focus on how the stories are picked for the radio program, how are they edited, who takes part in the editing and how is it possible that they are in charge of it. My diploma thesis also includes a detailed description of the social position of Post Bellum organisation and its fundamental project Paměť národa, which are both closely connected to radio program Příběhy 20. století. In the conclusion of my thesis I deal with the fact, that this social position is one of the main elements in the process of memory making in public sphere medium, because it has an indirect impact on it. In my thesis I try to answer, what influence can the examined radio program (as part of institutionalized remembering and media communication) have on social memory.

This thesis is an autoethnography based on a two week Trans-Siberian railway journey from Moscow to Vladivostok in October 2011. It explores the role of memory in our spatial surroundings, the effect remembering has on the way we move through and interpret the present and ourselves. In the chapters about community, rhythms, memory/imagination, and landscape the journey becomes a backbone for the personal narratives and the stories of others, which intertwining unveil the complex relationship between the self and the world, the present and the absent, and the imagined. Thesis explores the inevitable mobility of the mind, which sees us losing the ability to stay fastened to physical spaces, images and our own being, and opening the possibility to travel in time, space and memory. The physical landscape, landscape of Siberia gradually becomes almost invisible, disappears and re-emerges as a series of personal images and stories, feelings and dreams, suggesting that even moving through the vastest landscapes in the world we are always travelling inward, towards an understanding of ourselves and the world around us.

So, it is necessary to implement cognitive stimulation s procedures in order to minimize or to stabilize such losses. Studies based on Behavior Analysis, particularly in equivalence relations have shown the possibility of forming new relational networks by the elderly and that relational network could help to restore repertoires that are being affected by aging, such as remembering of names of people or objects. The present research had four studies, three of them with the objective to verify if conditional relations teaching, to the participants, could help them remembering names of people or objects and the fourth study with the objective to verify if conditional discriminations teaching biographical data could form equivalence relations. The participants were four old women diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. Before submitting them to the experimental procedures, the initial repertoire was evaluated. In the Studies 1, 2 and 3, the conditional relations were trained with sound (word dictated), image (representative of the word) and text (written word); these stimuli were presented or in simultaneous pairing or also with successive pairing (0 and 5 seconds). In the Study 4 only visual stimuli were used with simultaneous pairing. The emergence of new relations was tested, and the final repertoire was evaluated. The results of the first three studies showed improvement in remembering names behavior, but it was observed significant variation, among the participants, in the emergence of new relations. In the Study 4 was observed the emergence of equivalence relations. Some possible variables that may have interfered in the participants performance were pointed out, and suggestions for future studies were presented / Considerando-se que idosos enfrentam perdas cognitivas, sendo a mais frequente a perda de memória, torna-se necessário desenvolver atividades de estimulação cognitiva para minimizar ou estabilizar tais perdas. Na Análise do Comportamento, estudos pautados nas relações de equivalência têm mostrado a possibilidade de formação de novas redes relacionais pelo idoso, o que pode auxiliar também na reinstalação de repertórios que estão sendo afetados pelo envelhecimento, como o comportamento de lembrar nomes. O presente trabalho contou com quatro estudos, sendo que os três primeiros verificaram se o ensino de relações condicionais poderia favorecer o comportamento de lembrar nomes e o último estudo verificou se o ensino de discriminações condicionais de dados biográficos poderia favorecer a ocorrência de relações de equivalência. Participaram quatro idosas com diagnóstico de Doença de Alzheimer. Antes de submetê-las aos procedimentos experimentais, realizou-se a avaliação do repertório inicial. Nos Estudos 1, 2 e 3, o procedimento de ensino de relações condicionais utilizou estímulos nas modalidades som (palavra ditada), imagem (representativa da palavra) e texto (palavra escrita), sendo que os estímulos foram apresentados, ou apenas com pareamento simultâneo, ou também com pareamento sucessivo sem atraso e com atraso de 5 segundos. No Estudo 4, utilizaram-se apenas estímulos visuais, com pareamento simultâneo. Foi testada a emergência de novas relações, não treinadas, e se avaliou o repertório final. Os resultados dos três primeiros estudos indicaram melhora no comportamento de lembrar nomes, sendo que houve grande variação nos índices indicativos de emergência de relações não treinadas; no Estudo 4 não foi observada a emergência de relações de equivalência. Apontaram-se possíveis variáveis que podem ter interferido no desempenho das participantes, apresentando-se sugestões para futuras pesquisas

Based on Christina Reid&rsquo / s five Plays &ldquo / Tea in a China Cup,&rdquo / &ldquo / Did You Hear the One About the Irishman &hellip / ?,&rdquo / &ldquo / Joyriders,&rdquo / &ldquo / The Belle of the Belfast City,&rdquo / and &ldquo / My Name, Shall I Tell You My Name?&rdquo / the aim of this study is to put under discussion the idea that the sectarian conflict between the two ethno-religious communities in Northern Ireland is maintained deliberately and a national identity unique to the people in this country cannot be constructed at least in the near future. The Protestants in Northern Ireland cannot choose Irishness as a national identity because the Irishness has been monopolized by the Catholics, and cannot adopt the Britishness as a national identity because of the varieties in the social factors they have. Likewise, the Catholics in Northern Ireland do not call themselves British because their Catholicism involves an Irish identity with the rejection of the British rule, and they cannot truly entitle themselves Irish due to the differences in social conditions. However, both factions try to adhere themselves to a national identity through their communal ideology. The Protestants claim that they are part of Britain, while the Catholics claim that they are members of Irish Nation. This situation has led to reluctance in both communities to stop the conflictual circumstances which encourage both groups to tether to their traditions more intensely, to contribute to the otherization process reinforcing their social identity and lead them to impose their working ideology on their new members whose divergence from traditions will definitely pose a threat to their identity. Also, in this country the forgetting / remembering process, which is actually exploited to forge a national identity, is orchestrated by the two communities to enlarge the intercommunal chasm through the narration of the old stories and memories, creation of stories, commemoration activities and museumizing certain objects. Throughout the study the key points which will be highlighted are as follows: nation, national identity and nation building process, the sectarian conflict between the two communities in Northern Ireland, maintenance of conflictual situation and the employment of the forgetting / remembering process in Northern Ireland.

This work focuses on the social practice of recollection, the so-called standardization in public sphere and possibilities to grasp this subject in history teaching. The aim is to describe this practice and at the same time, to define effective methods of its thematization in school environment. In the first part, I am concerned with the concepts of memory from Maurice Halbwachs to Alison Landsberg and I emphasize my preference for the concept of media memory as the basis for my further researches. Furthermore, I analyse models of historical education in Anglo-American environment on the one hand and German environment on the other hand. I analyse the strong and weak points of these models based on the concept of "historical thinking" and "historical consciousness". In the second part, I analyse the resemblance of memoir characters to the so-called standardization in movie presentations and their perception by users of the movie site www.csfd.cz. The objective of this analysis was to point out to the fact how we communicate about movies and which values are associated with watching movies. I linked the analysis of movie images and their perception to the idea of dominant cultural formations of the Czech society in Michael Kennedy's mind. I have analysed four movies, which, in my opinion, represent...

In the early 1990s, the student movement in the State of Goiás was retaken with the publishing of former movement leaders memories, focusing on the period of action (the 1960s), and of political agents in the present of remembering (the 1990s). Firstly, interviews made by researchers from the Universidade Federal de Goiás History Department under the guidance of on of its professors (he himself a student militant in the 1980s) brought to light the rebuilt memories of former student militants who acted in the city of Goiânia. Secondly, two former student militants published a book with interviews with former militants to paid homage to their brother that disappeared during the military government. The accounts reveal a re-evaluation of these former student militants past according to the interest in rebuilding their own image of the militancy and of the political responsibility regarding the students action. The setting of remembering includes political discussions in the national sphere dealing with the student reorganization in the so-called movement Caras pintadas ( painted faces ) contrary to the Brazilian president at the time Fernando Collor and the transmission by Rede Globo of the soap opera Anos rebeldes, on the youth action during the military government in Brazil. Besides, the end of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (URSS) and the fall of Berlin Wall, in 1989, gave directions to the search of a student and political identity, menaced by new images of the student movement and the Socialist propositions discredit, which stimulated social movements during the military regime. In this regard, the images revealed by the former militants memories focus on the students action demonstrations and decision making and the attribution of meaning to the condition of being a student militant heroes and society representatives, justified by the student consciousness in the 1960s. / No início da década de 1990, o movimento estudantil goiano é retomado com a publicação das memórias de ex-líderes no período de atuação anos de 1960 e agentes políticos partidários no presente de rememoração anos de 1990. Entrevistas feitas por pesquisadores do Departamento de História da Universidade Católica de Goiás (UCG), sob coordenação de um professor do departamento e ex-militante estudantil na década de 1980, expõem as memórias reconstruídas de ex-militantes estudantis que atuaram em Goiânia; noutro momento, dois ex-militantes estudantis homenageiam o irmão político desaparecido na ditadura militar com livro que traz entrevistas feitas por eles com ex-militantes. Os relatos selecionados e narrados denotam caráter político de reavaliação do passado vivido segundo o interesse em construir uma auto-imagem da militância e da responsabilidade política viabilizadas pela participação estudantil. O tempo de rememoração é permeado por rediscussões políticas de âmbito nacional, com a reorganização estudantil no movimento conhecido como Caras-pintadas , contrário ao então presidente Fernando Collor, e a exibição, pela Rede Globo, do seriado denominado Anos rebeldes, sobre a ação dos jovens na ditadura militar. No panorama mundial, o fim da União das Repúblicas Socialistas Soviéticas (URSS) e a queda do murro de Berlim (1989) também direcionam uma busca de identidade estudantil e política, ameaçada por novas imagens do movimento estudantil e pelo descrédito nas propostas socialistas que impulsionaram os movimentos sociais no Brasil no regime militar. Assim, as imagens selecionadas pelas memórias dos ex-militantes se voltam à ação dos estudantes passeatas, manifestações, tomadas de decisão e à atribuição de significados à condição de militante estudantil heróis e representantes da sociedade, justificados pela consciência estudantil nos anos de 1960. / Mestre em História

A diploma thesis is concerned with research. The research is focused on compare of effectiveness and differences of two opposite techniques, which are using in school environment. Methods and techniques of drama in contrast of classics method of frontal teaching. A primary aim of diploma thesis is finding out, if these particular methods has got influences for better or worst understanding and remembering subject matter and how big are these influences. The diploma thesis is divided on two parts. First is theoretics and second is practice's part. Theoretics part is making efforts to sketch these problematics of technical viewpoint. It is working mainly with specialized literature. Theoretics part is creating foundations for practices part. Practice's part is asking about research questions first and choosing explorative methods for research. Like research method is selecting of analysis of tests from children from both of classes. Test was created on the basis of take places of lessons. Starting point for practice part was book names "Old Greece mythos and legends" from author Eduard Petiška. In this book I choose one of them. Choosed legend is "Trója". The end of practice part is reflecting of lessons and knowledges, which was achieved in this research. In the end will be make summary and...

In the thesis, I aim to analyze how people remember their past in changed political circumstances, what and who affect that memory, and why and how does rapture between social memory and historical narratives come about. My subject of inquiry is the personality of Josip Broz Tito and above that the period of socialism and the years of his reign. Studying these my intention is not in writing his biography, rather I use him as an object through which I can get a closer look at the production of a new social memory. I analyze my ethnographic data by using the theory of collective memory and politics of memory theory. Those two main analytical tools are combined with more concepts and hypotheses. The inquiry is done on multisited places, by doing multi-local ethnography namely in Croatia and Serbia. I argue that the mnemonic communities like nations, social groups or power elites influence how people perceive their past and consequently remember historical facts. In times of unstable political circumstances like the change of communist order into capitalistic one, people tend to make sense of their complex past by producing different narratives which are often contested.

This Master's thesis focuses on the presence and use of remembrance in the context of pastoral care for the elderly within the Evangelical Church of Czech Brethren. The aim of this thesis is to explore various ways, in what specific situations, reminiscence is present and used in the context of pastoral care as well as to identify specific reminiscence tools that are utilized in the process of pastoral care for the elderly. This thesis is divided into two main parts. The first part focuses on explaining the theoretical bases for this thesis by focusing on two main topics: pastoral care for the elderly and reminiscence work, and outlines ways in which both areas are connected. The second part is focused on qualitative research using semi-structured interviews with pastors. This investigation aims to arrive at an answer to the primary reseach question about the role of reminiscence within pastoral care for the elderly.
