Fapšo, Marek ; Horský, Jan (referee) ; Beneš, Zdeněk (advisor)
This presented work is focused on the topic of so called Goll's School. It pays its attention to the foreign stays of Jaroslav Goll's oldest students (Josef Pekař, Josef Vitezslav Simak, Jaroslav Bidlo and Ladislav Hofman), which are situated to the period of "long 19th century". The point of it was to show some concrete perspectives of examining the term "Goll's School", which does not have to be treated as just a methodological group. The main features are Jaroslav Goll as a charismatic tutor, his organization skills or social net of personal relations. These all eventually put together few historians, who are today known as Goll's School.

The question of Czechoslovak revisionism. The issue of the development of marxist thinking since 1948 until 1959
Tauchman, Jaroslav ; Horský, Jan (referee) ; Beneš, Zdeněk (advisor)
The submitted study deals with the development of Czech Marxist Thinking in the fifties of the 20th century. It specifically focuses on the era between taking power in Czechoslovakia by the Communist Party in 1948 and the peak of the so-called campaign against revisionism at the turn of 1958 and 1959. The study results from the presumption that the liberation in the field of scientific research in Czechoslovakia, as well as in culture, has its clear historical reasons. Besides an unexceptionable influence on this course of events on the part of the economic and political development, the immanent development of Czechoslovak Marxist Thinking appears as the key element in the entire structure of this process.

Masculinity and feminity in early modern czech literature
Ratajová, Jana ; Hojda, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Horský, Jan (referee) ; Himl, Pavel (referee)
This doctoral thesis aims to analyse the gender categories of male and female in a historical perspective, focusing in particular on the following issues: 1. whether and to what extent these categories were defined in the early modern period (the construction of gender in the early modern texts, the contemporary gender norms and the theory of gender); 2. how the particular genders interrelate, whether and how the binary opposition between masculinity and feminity was being defined in that historical period.

The City as an Image
Altová, Blanka ; Havelka, Miloš (advisor) ; Uherek, Zdeněk (referee) ; Horský, Jan (referee)
Blanka Altová: Abstrakt disertační práce, FHS UK Praha. Katedra obecné antropologie The city as an image. Kutna Hora. To view and interpret a historical city as an image is a way of finding relationship to past from the position of presence and uncovering the ties of the physical and existential understanding of the city. At the same time using the concept of the image I want to clearly express that i talk about the physical (not social) image of the city. Physical image, namely architecture and spatial organization of cities I perceive as sources in situ and, in accordance with the art historian Pierre Francastel, as a result and part of system of figurative expression (thinking through image), which was established and developed parallel with the intellectual system. From the viewpoint of the presence the past of the city can be seen through prism of different concepts. I choose the concept of collective memory (Maurice Halbwachs, Pierre Nora), because I'm interested in not only what really happened but also what did not and should have or could have happened. I use the iconographic analysis and iconological methods of art history for content-interpretation of the symbolic meanings of architecture, urban planning and urban themes (in painting, drawing, in relief). I choose these subjects because of their...

Paupertate styloque connecti. Formalized writing, literary field and performing the humanist scholar community in Bohemia
Storchová, Lucie ; Beneš, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Horský, Jan (referee) ; Urbánek, Vladimír (referee)
Basing on theoretical frameworks as symbolical sociology (concept of literary fields), speech representations and theories of performativity, the Ph.D. thesis focuses on the construction and representation of humanist communities of scholars in the Czech Lands during the 16th and 17th centuries. The author attempts to respond to the following questions. What are the peculiarities of the humanistic Latin mode of writing in this period in the Czech Lands? How did communication between scholars take place within the framework of the formalised discursive mode - so-called 'writing in excerpts'? Is it possible on the basis of the surviving source materials to distinguish several humanist literary fields in Bohemia? How did they function and what made them distinct? How were patronage relationships modelled and performed in humanist literary fields, heteronymous in their very principle? How in the process of humanist Latin communication was the scholarly community performed and how did individual scholars fashion themselves? These problems are thematised since 1550s as the first humanist long-term intellectual networks formed in the Czech Lands; the main attention is paid to the literary field of the Prague university, but also the literary production in literary circles in towns controlled by the university...
