HOSPASKOVÁ, Eliška
The aim of the bachelor thesis "Memorial books of the parish of Němčice 1759-1939" is to present the topic of parish memorial books. The thesis watches an example of two sources of this kind that originated from the work of the Parish office of Němčice (near Netolice) in connection with history of the village and of the local clerical administration. That?s why the first chapter introduces the history of Němčice since the first written mention until present and the second chapter describes the development of the local parish and of the parish church of Saint Nicholas in Němčice, too. The centre of the work is the third chapter which presents both memorial books of the parish of Němčice. The first book contains records from years 1759-1783 (or 1796) and the second one was written in a period since 1836 probably until 1939 (with an inscription from 1948). The chapter deals with an external and internal description of both memorial books, the context of their foundation, characteristics of individual chroniclers and an analysis of their records. The conclusion of the thesis summarizes the development and significance of parish memorial books and suggests their possible use for a historical research. The work also contains several supplements, especially an edition of the older memorial book of Němčice, samples of writings of chroniclers as well as tables, maps and photographs.
