Aleš and Petr Holicky, Two Generations of Sternberks and Their Impact on Czech Political Scene in the First Half of the 15th Century
Koula, Vít ; Zilynská, Blanka (referee)
The exam for the doctorate thesis deals with two representatives of the Sternberk dynasty: Ales Holicky and his son Petr. Firstly, it focuses on Ales and his activities in Zikmund's camp. It surveys Sternberk's political programme, its fulfilment and goals. Further, it follows Ales's political orientation after the conversion to chalice in the beginning of the 30s of the 15th century and tries to cover the grounds for Ales's rise including the influence of the political coalitions of which he was a member. In that context, Ales's role in Ptacek's and Podebrad's party is explained as well as his part in formulating and promoting their demands. On the basis of the required findings, the thesis attempts to show who in fact profited from Ales's policy. Was it only Ales, respectively his dynasty, the utraquist coalitions of which he was a member, or the country as well? The thesis also tries to revise some conclusions of previous historiography, in which Ales's influence in the parties he was a member of as well as his ability of an independent conduct have been under evaluated. Having made a successful career in the revolutionary and difficult period of the first half of the 15th century, Ales should rightly rank among the significant, although not cardinal personalities of the period who deserve our attention....

Aleš Holický of Šternberk. Nobleman and politician of the post Lipany period
Koula, Vít ; Bobková, Lenka (advisor) ; Zilynská, Blanka (referee)
In my thesis I deal with Aleš Holický, a significant representative of the Šternberk clan, in the post Lipany period. On the basis of sources, I am trying to chart especially his political programme, its creation and the fulfilment of the goal he was pursuing. I follow up his political orientation after the conversion to the chalice in the beginning of 1430s and try to describe the basis of his rise including the influence of the political groups which he was a member of. In this context, I explain Aleš's role in Ptáček's and Poděbrad's party and his interest in formulation and enforcement of their demands. On the basis of the evidence collected, Aleš's contribution not just to Czech utraquism, Ptáček's party, Poděbrad's party (later Poděbrad's league), in which he acted, as well as for the whole country is evaluated at the end. Thus, I am trying to revise some conclusions of older historiography in which Aleš's influence in the parties he belonged to as well as his independent negotiations have been underestimated. In Aleš's persistent, purposeful activity and merits I can see the substantiation of his inclusion among the significant personalities of Czech history and politics of the 1430s - 1450s. In my thesis, I am following up both Aleš's political programme and his relations to his allies and...
