Abstract The thesis gives several examples of literature published in Czech /Slovak that either focus on the matter of the Indians of the US Great Plains, or are original pieces of Indian literature. The selected fiction and non-fiction work is a starting point for discussing the topic of North American Indians, our relation to it as well as potential analogies with the topics of the current society, and designing related drama education projects. The thesis consists of three chapters, each devoted to stories and issues of a single tribe. The first two chapters contain North American Indian mythology, the third one explores the relationships and conflicts of Indians and settlers (especially throughout the 19th century). The resulting projects of each chapter aim at different target groups (pre-school age, primary school age, secondary school age).

When Karel Čapek´s R.U.R. (the acronymic title is short for ??Rossum?s Universal Robots??) was first performed in 1921, it became a major international success and made Čapek an internationally known playwright. Although R.U.R. may appear slightly dated nearly hundred years later, the concerns expressed by the playwright are still interesting to modern audiences which explains why this play was chosen to be stage designed in the first place.

This thesis is dealt with one of the most important domain in preparatory and production works of radio drama - sound dramaturgy. In the first part I systemize sound material from the point of view of creativity focusing on its formative and semantic potential. Then I apply the previous findings considering the radio drama production itself. I distinguish two phase of sound-dramaturge`s work: phase of timeline construction and phase of building up the sound scene. There are many practical examples illustrating my partial conclusions in the thesis as well as contemplations of next radio drama sound dramaturgy development. I suppose this thesis will be a contribution for radio drama theory in the Czech area.

The master's thesis Acting in Animation reflects the author's experience, gained by combining studies of animation and of authorial acting.
