Its source is primary the Culture Directory from the year 1934, respectively the kvantification of its informations. This informations or profiles are analyzed through categories of position in hieararchy in historography, nationality, lokalization and specialization. According this categories we can see many different ways of creating symbolic representation in our set of historians. The phenomene of change in time and trends we can see by using category of generation, defined objectively every ten years according the date of birth. Thanks variability of categories we can see the plurality of ways of creating symbolic representation. For exact analysis of symbolic representation we use a concept of "field of representations" where the representations make a really exactly defined units. Their complicated struktures create a symbolic representation of whole czechoslovac historiography. By using a kvantification we can see the facts, which are by other method unachievable.

World and thoughts of non-tolerated religious communities in eastern bohemia during 18th and 19th centuries
Taich, Tomáš ; Štaif, Jiří (advisor) ; Tinková, Daniela (referee)
The phenomenon of disident religious groups in Bohemia and Moravia in the end of the 18th Century and during 19th Century is tightly connected with illegal protestantism before the tolerationist patent of 1781. These non-tolerated communities surfaced in the same regions as secret evangelical, and then newly formed reformed and lutheran churches. Also their base thoughts were formed by the same book titles as it was with the later official protestants, and the phenomenon is tied with the evangelical church even with a few names of important leaders from the time of illegality. Tolerationist reality was a distinctive move from the times of catholic monopoly, but it offered way too strict rules that did not take in consideration the specific way of Czech reformation. Some of the evangelics then, being raised in family tradition and by hidden and smuggled literature and supported by pietistic churches in Prussia, Silesia and Lustaia, did not always find room for themselves in the newly formed churches and rather postulated themselves as the third, illegal side. As the time went on, their theology seems to accent more of a pantheistic meanings and a radical departure from the common world. Popularity were also gaining different prophecies of religious or social turn over. Later in 19th Century it is quite...

Prague sculpture exhibitions 1898 - 1916. A contribution to the theme of gallery sculpture presentation
Cermanová, Jana ; Štaif, Jiří (advisor) ; Blümlová, Dagmar (referee) ; Lenderová, Milena (referee)
Jana Cermanová Prague sculpture exhibitions 1898 - 1916 A contribution to the theme of gallery sculpture presentation Dissertation synopsis Sculpture as an artistic discipline experienced a dynamic rise in the Czech lands at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. This followed the much admired example of France, where Charles Morice, referencing Rodin and his pupils, asserted the dominance of modern sculpture over painting in 1910. Thanks in large part to major art world figure and educator J. V. Myslbek, the Czech lands also saw the development of a highly ambitious group of sculptors poised to address a growing social demand for monumental works (particularly memorials) that recaptured the city's public space. Sculptors worked on architectural commissions for decorative sculptures and on orders for funerary objects, which guaranteed them an income and enabled them to pursue their own creative work. However, it was chiefly this "flood of monuments" that attracted public attention to sculptors and garnered them social prestige. Sculptors became more deeply involved in art events and played a major role in addressing contemporary art world issues. The public boom enjoyed by sculpture carried over into exhibition halls, where ...

Poverty, Pauperism and Social Question as Public Discourses in the Habsbburg Monarchy in the Era "Vormärz" and Revolution of 1848/1849
Raška, Jakub ; Štaif, Jiří (advisor) ; Petrbok, Václav (referee)
(in English): This paper deals with early views on industrial pauperism in texts intended for a public reading in the western part of the Habsburg monarchy during the pre-March period (here 1830-1848) and at the time of the revolution in 1848-1849. The main observed phenomenon is the dynamics of social and political imagination of the Austrian society in a relation to structural processes of European modernization. On two basic areas, journalism and literature, it explores development of views on the mass poverty from the general romantic rejection of modernization process to the proposals for solutions of the social question, which were formulated on the basis of affiliation to any political camp, for example, education by liberalism or the welfare state by socialism. The work does not deal so much with a thinking of big personalities of social theory, but rather focuses on the everyday negotiations dichotomy of "old" and "new", which was led by nowadays more or less forgotten authors.

Sculptural centre in Hořice v Podkrkonoší - the Czech artistic exhibition phenomenon of the beginning of 20th century
Cermanová, Jana ; Pullmann, Michal (referee) ; Štaif, Jiří (referee)
Na počátku 20. století disponovaly Hořice v Podkrkonoší českým monopolem jak v oblasti středního sochařského vzdělání, tak ve výstavnictví specializovaném na prezentaci sochy. Dlouhá kamenosochařská tradice regionu poskytla předpoklady pro vznik ve středoevropské oblasti jedinečného sochařského centra. Rozvíjením uměleckého zaměření Hořic usilovala místní inteligence o povýšení města na kulturní středisko kraje. Založení sbírky českých moderních sochařských děl v roce 1908 se stalo jedním z nejpříznačnějších produktů těchto snah. V rigorózní práci se věnuji okolnostem zrodu hořického sochařského střediska a umělecké galerie. Analyzuji činnost, akviziční politiku i uměleckou normu Galerie plastik v první čtvrtině 20. století a zabývám se také obecnějšími souvislostmi života uměleckých muzeí a galerií, do jejichž rámce hořickou instituci zasazuji.
