Medieval cultural centers in the Sahara region
Buchtyar, Petr ; Půtová, Barbora (advisor) ; Jiroušková, Jana (referee)
1 Abstract This bachelor's thesis focuses on various ethnic groups in the region of the Sahara, particulary during the golden age of medieval empires. It also emphasizes the importance and influence of Islam in the whole region and it's role among key ethnic groups. Geographically, the thesis spreads from today's Mauritania to the region around Lake Chad. Sahara is viewed in a wider geographical sense, as it also includes regions considered to be in the Sahel. Also due to extensive historical scale of this thesis, it also deals with influences within concerned ethnic groups. Main goal of this thesis is in depth description of intellectual centers, such as Timbuktu or Walata and the current state of manuscript research in Mali and Mauritania. Repeatedly throughout the thesis, involvement of elite tribal groups into the large scale Trans-Saharan trade is also mentioned, as are some of their mutual alliances that are key factors in today's understanding of this turbulent region. Keywords: Ethnic groups, Sahara, Manuscripts, Timbuktu, Tuareg

Rychlík, Martin ; Soukup, Václav (advisor) ; Jiroušková, Jana (referee) ; Ebelová, Kateřina (referee)
The term "primitive art" was used to denote the tribal "art" of those people in Africa, Americas, Asia, Australia and Oceania who were the objects of ethnological or anthro- pological study. As such, it corresponds to the area of so called art that has has often (and unsatisfactory) been called tribal, primitive, aboriginal, native, indigenous or traditional etc. This thesis provides general introduction to some anthropological perspectives on art, and offers variety of approaches to the uneasy concept of art as is defined in our culture. Three case studies show ethnoaesthetic topics (paleolithic rockart, african hairstyles and also tattooing of human bodies in traditional Polynesian cultures).
