Zentner, Jakub Václav ; Zlatohlávek, Martin (advisor) ; Horyna, Mojmír (referee)
RESUME Historicky doložené počátky Roudnice nad Labem sahají do 12. století. Roudnice byla tehdy městem pražských biskupů, kteří zde zbudovali románský hrad. V průběhu 13. století dostává osídlení pod hradem městský charakter. Po osvobození města z jeho obsazení vazalem Oty Braniborského (1279) dává pražský biskup Tobiáš z Bechyně město opevnit a v roce 1294 zde zakládá kostel Narození Panny Marie. Rozkvět města přichází za episkopátu Jana IV. z Dražic. Ten dal v roce 1310 postavit v Roudnici druhý kostel, zasvěcený sv. Václavovi. Po svém návratu z Avignou, kde se deset let soudil před papežským dvorem, přivedl do Čech novou řeholi augustiniánů kanovníků, pro které roku 1333 zakládá v Roudnici klášter. Vedle kostela Panny Marie byl pro řeholníky postaven nový kostel bazilikálního typu, přičemž ze starého kostela se stala sakristie. Nový klášter se stal centrem hluboké mariánské zbožnosti, vzdělanosti a umění. V roce 1421 byl však klášter vypleněn husitskými vojsky. Pokus o obnovu řeholního života po roce 1436 se nakonec nezdařil a duchovní správa v Roudnici v průběhu 15. století plynule přešla k utrakvismu. Katolickou obnovu zahájila po roce 1603 Polyxena z Pernštejna, provdaná roku 1603 za Zdeňka Vojtěcha Popela z Lobkowicz. Ke kostelu Panny Marie byl opět dosazen katolický kněz s čestným proboštským...

The Decanal Church of the HoHy Cross in Děčín The Church of the Ascension of the Ho1y Cross in Děčín (North Bohemia, Czech Republic) is one of the most significant pieces of an ear1y baroque architecture in Děčín region.

Maximilian von Thun-Hohensten as an imperial diplomat, lord counci1 and knight of the Go1den Fleece had a 10t of opportunities to charge notable architects ofthe Central European region with building ofthis sanctuary. Thus it cou1d be a baroque architect influenced by Bernini's school of the first half of 17th century. However, the construction project could also have been sent by post or cou1d have been gained by Don Maximilian during his stay in Rome or Salzburg.

Early Baroque Altars in Prague
Kolář, Jan ; Zlatohlávek, Martin (advisor) ; Horyna, Mojmír (referee)
ENGLISH ANNOTATION This paper discusses Prague altars that were crafted in the years of early-baroque between 1620 and 1680. It contains a brief outline of the historical period during which - in relation to counter-reformation and recatholization after the defeat of the Estate uprising in 1620 - baroque style had been fully accepted in Czech lands. The church, supported by the state, had made it its goal to restore catholicism in Czech lands and for this purpose it also used the means of arts. The baroque church combined all kinds of arts in its complexity. The main attention of its builders was paid to altar constructions, most often wooden ones. This paper then analyzes the history and typology of the altar and its components - the altar table, the retabulum (altar leg) and the tabernacle (sanctuary). The overall development of early-baroque altars dated from late-renaissaince mannerism to the beginning of top-baroque is discussed, together with the metamorphosis of the altars' architectural concepts, the artistic perfection of the altars and of their decorative elements. Both preserved and some non-preserved altar constructions located in Prague (in the area of Hradčany, Lesser Town, Old Town and New Town) are listed and described in this paper. Furthermore, an account is given of the artists...
