Authorship identification in case of songs for several voices in Czech hymnal from museum in Hradec Králové that were not written by Adam Václav Michna z Otradovic
Janosik-Bielski, Marek ; Kolár, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Hošna, Jiří (referee)
Od nepaměti člověk vyjadřuje všeliká hnutí ducha také navenek, ať už neurčitým zvukem, nebo slovem. Slovo jako takové může často vyjádřit více než pouhý zvuk, někdy však je bud' nedostatečné, nebo naopak na škodu. Člověk proto skloubil slovo s vlastnostmi jiných, neurčitých zvuků a vytvořil slovo zpívané, které plněji vyhovuje jeho vyjadřovací potřebě v případě uvedeném výše. A jako je slovo na počátku všeho Gak krásně - ačkoli v jiném kontextu - praví svatý Janl ) aje základem řeči, tak slovo zpívané tvoří základ zpěvu. Zpěvem lidé od pradávna vyjadřovali své city, nálady a přesvědčení (zpěvem mezi sebou i komunikovali); toto se později přeneslo i do prostředí církevního, v němž se nakonec především chrámový zpěv a různé druhy hymnů a sekvencí napevno usadily a staly se jeho samozřejmou součástí. Avšak daleko dříve, než se tak stalo v celém církevním prostředí, staly se zpěvy v národním jazyce pevnou součástí liturgie slovanské, a to především české, kde zcela v rozporu s dosavadními zvyklostmi římskokatolické církve bylo s bohoslužbou spjato několik zpěvů, které žádná světská ani církevní moc nedokázala vymýtit (ne nadarmo se říká "co Čech, to muzikant"). Musela na to být papežem udělena výjimka. Tak tomu bylo na samém prahu chrámového zpěvu v Čechách a tato skutečnost dala ráz i praxi budoucí. Další,...
Saint Procopius in literary sources
Dušek, Jan ; Hošna, Jiří (advisor) ; Matějec, Tomáš (referee)
The bachelor thesis Saint Procopius in Literary Sources is dedicated to Saint Procopius and The Monastery of Sázava in the period from the 11th to the 14th century. It observes the story both of this saint and the Slavonic monastery until 1097 on the basis of medieval legends about Saint Procopius. The thesis also deals with attitudes and opinions of historians and Slavists concerning information gained from the legends. These refer to the saint himself (e. g. his origin, Slavonic education, entry to monastery) as well as to the Monastery of Sázava, which is thus described as the well-known centre of Slavonic culture, and the residence of expelled Slavonic monk comunity during the period of 1055-1061. The depiction of the Monastery of Sázava until the 14th century is enlarged with the information about its situation in the Romanesque and Gothic period, which is known thanks to the archeological research done by Květa Richterová and Petr Sommer. This knowledge is discussed within the context of other works of art. Furthermore, the thesis deals with the position of Saint Procopius, our first saint canonized by pope in Rome, among the Czech saints.
The character of a priest in Czech literature of the 19th century
Trdlica, Vilém ; Vaněk, Václav (advisor) ; Hošna, Jiří (referee)
The thesis analyzes the prose works of Czech literature of the 19th century, in which a character of a priest appears. The thesis interprets the passages of selected works of K. V. Rais, K. Klostermann, J. Š. Baar, I. Herrmann and B. Němcová. The works of fiction, which elaborate on the psychology of the characters more deeply, are set into rural environment. The priests enter various relationships and conflicts with the parishioners. By that, either a picture of a traditional village is illustrated, or, its profound transformation is depicted. The thesis is also devoted to analyzing the description of mutual relations between priests. For the figure of a priest in Czech literature is typical that he communicates with believers mainly through his office, but that he also expresses his social feeling beyond that. The thesis concludes that, in Czech literature of the 19th century, the priest is generally perceived and depicted as a character with predominantly positive features.

Kopal, Petr ; Hošna, Jiří (advisor) ; Bláhová, Marie (referee) ; Téra, Michal (referee)
The world of Cosmas. The image of political nation in the oldest Czech chronicle This work focuses on the image of the political nation in the oldest Czech chronicle - Chronica Boemorum (The Chronicle of Czechs) by Cosmas, "the first Czech historian" [Robert Bartlett, University of St Andrews: "Bohemia made a spectacular debut in this respect with Cosmas of Prague, whose vivid prose style, gifts of powerful characterization and ability to convey action, and the occasional personal touches he allows (such as the yearning picture of his long-gone student days) make him not only a vital historical source for the Premyslid lands but also one of the great writers of the Middle Ages. He initiated a tradition which continued, with peaks and plateaux, throughout the Premyslid period, and this was important, for a native historical tradition was one of the marks of a Latin Christian society."] Cosmas' Chronicle (The Chronicle of Czechs) is part of the context of "national history". Cosmas wrote a scholarly, entertaining, but also politically committed work, presenting a "national program" of sorts. This was no Czech specialty - when we think of Europe in the 11th and 12th century, we see a garden of sprouting new nations, the medieval "spring of nations". The first national states, with clear territorial...

It also describes the features, functions and the process of formation of national stereotypes.
