Historical genesis of the Orthodox Church of the Czech Lands
Táborský, Jiří ; Parkan, František (advisor) ; Mikeska, Tomáš (referee)
The following work will examine the historical genesis of the unit that will serve the Orthodox Church in the Czech lands. It will also defend the religious doctrine of that community and its relations with the state and other Christian denominations, especially with those that have historically had to reflect, and with those that have traditionally dominated the Czech territory and share in the co-importance of the national ethos. In our diploma thesis we try to respond to the questions of the origin of Orthodoxy, its development in history, its arrival in our territory, and its fate here. The subject of our research will be examined mainly from the historical point of view, but with some interdisciplinary intersections, especially in the field of literary history, linguistics, religion and comparative cultural studies in religion and collective psychology in determining and influencing the Czech nation's own national identity. Of course, all this with a critical distance, but also with a feeling for the spirit of the relevant epoch.

Benešová, Kristýna ; Mikeska, Tomáš (advisor) ; Parkan, František (referee)
The diploma thesis titled "The use of regional history in history classes with examples from Kladno region" deals with the topic of regional history, the history of the Kladno region and questionnaire about teaching regional history at schools in the Kladno region. It also offers a thought how this topic can be included in the history classes. One of the primary objectives of this thesis was to explain the importance of regional history and its inclusion in education. Relevant specialized literature was thoroughly analyzed for this purpose. The inclusion of this topic is especially important in order for the pupils to better understand various historical phenomena through an environment which is familiar to them. Another important objective was to find out whether regional history is being taught at all at schools in the Kladno region, what forms are used for this purpose, and which topics are included. In order to find the answers a questionnaire was sent to the teachers and pupils in the Kladno region. The results suggest that the majority of teachers attempt to include regional history in their history classes, even when faced with unfavorable time allotment. Roughly half of the pupils who answered the questionnaire has been taught regional history over the course of their education. The last...

It also shows and explains the origin of the idea of communism, the further development of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia during the First Republic, and the postwar Third Republic. This chapter was put together using found edited sources and secondary literature. The second chapter deals with individual film and serial processing of topics related to the period. It presents specific films and series which were produced in the most recent years (or the post-revolutionary period), but also materials produced during the totalitarianism before 1989.

The purpose is to acquaint students with regional history and sights in their birthplace and also raise their interest in things, places and memories they commonly pass, but do not pay attention to them. This project is focused on the city where I was born, lived significant part of my life and got my first pedagogical experience. For collecting data at the beginning and at the end of the project were used surveys, which brought feedback from students. Main axis was individual work of students, which consisted of group activities and using of modern technology. Results shown, that this method has potential which should not be diminished, students in the examined class appreciated it as an interesting form of teaching. They found out about commonly passed places in the city, things they surprisingly did not know and were never and by nobody told about. Every teacher teaching regional history should try this way of teaching and find out if it is usable with regard to his style of...

Hořovice during 1945-1989
Léblová, Kateřina ; Mikeska, Tomáš (advisor) ; Parkan, František (referee)
This thesis looks into the history of the town Hořovice in the years 1945-1989. The thesis attempts to cover the most important events that took place in the chosen time span in a rather small town located in Central Bohemia but also doesn't forget to mention the everyday life of the local citizens. The thesis selects not only the events crucial from today's perspective (see Expulsion of Germans, The August 1968, …) but also facts which could be for contemporary readers (for today's citizens of Hořovice in particular) very interesting and helpful. Even though some of the facts could be regarded as minor ones, they all equally contribute to the history of the town. The thesis places all the events to the historical context with the help of archive sources, secondary literature as well as printed material and memories from that time.
