Oikonomia of Hussites
Šenovský, Jakub ; Spalová, Barbora (advisor) ; Nešpor, Zdeněk (referee)
This work discusses how parishes of The Czechoslovak Hussite Church are managed as well as from which sources this management arises. The entire work is based on my research in two parishes of the church. The research took about a year. The Czechoslovak Hussite Church is one of so called "people's churches", but in recent years this church has to deal with a great loss of its members and high age of the remaining members. All these issues require an adequate response from the administrators of the parishes, which is to a great extend based on the faith, i.e. on a specific theology, which is actually a biblical theology. What is more, this theology affects all dimensions of administration. The main goal of this work is to show that the individual spheres of administration decisions are not separated, but all of them are derived from one source. This source is, indeed, the specific theology of the church. The same principles of administration are applied even in the economic behaviour of the parishes, where one can also observe the same principles, which were applied in the everyday running of the church or in the sermons etc. Key words: The Czechoslovak Hussite Church, church administration, church economy, oikonomia

Holy Mountain at Příbram in the interwar period "Mary Castle" defending the Catholic faith in Bohemia? Analysis of Holy Mountain's journal from the years 1922 - 1932
Burgrová, Vendula ; Himl, Pavel (advisor) ; Nešpor, Zdeněk (referee)
In my work I deal with the place of pilgrimage of the Virgin Mary on the Holy Mountain in Příbram in the interwar period. In the newly established Republic of Czechoslovakia, tense relations between Church and State has prevailed. Even iconoclastic acts are documented from that time. My assumption is that the Holy Mountain functioned as a place that helped to bring together believers, unite Catholics, and restore the faith. A catholic group called Matice Svatohorská was founded to focus on repairing extensive grounds and spreading the awareness of the Holy Mountain and the cult of the Virgin Mary through a published journal. Through an analysis of this journal I want to capture the resources that Catholic leaders used in consolidating and expanding the Catholic Faith in Bohemia. Through the analysis of the journal I want to know how the magazine reflected the relationship between church and state and what additional information reflects. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
