Unutilized opportunity. To missing prerequisite for start witch-craze in criminal law of town Solnice. Conditions of trials and why did not take place
Kobrlová, Zuzana ; Čechura, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Zdichynec, Jan (referee)
This bachelor thesis concerns the issue of witchcraft and its persecution for being one of the greatest offences to Christianity majesty. The introduction is conceived generally and my primary aim was to identify the origin of the witchcraft myth and its ideological sources - the works of the Christian provenance which kept this fallacy alive. Furthermore, the thesis depicts the Czech lands in the period from the 15th to 17th century. The text is focused on the questions of legal anchorage of persecution of the crime of witchcraft, on the evaluation of the historical development in the post-Hussite Bohemia and the use of torture. Final theories are then applied to the concrete cases of use of magic found in the so called Acta Negra book of the town of Solnice from the years 1569-1638. The author tries to portray the Czech environment which was in a sense insufficiently sensitive to the magic and to magical practices in general and to determine the causes which did not lead to unleashing of the trials with the supposed devil's servants. Key words: Church, witchcraft, Malleus Maleficarum, law, torment.

Vojáček, Jan ; Žák, Květoslav (advisor) ; Spirit, Michal (referee)
This thesis describes the development of codification of criminal law in Czech history. At first I described theory of comparative law, further follows the historical development of criminal law since the beginnings of the Czech state. After that I compared individual criminal codes based on division between general and special part. In special part I focused on the scheme of division of criminal offences into sections. At the end I compared adjustment of several criminal offenses in penal codes. This part contains four criminal offences (murder, theft, high treason and crime of witchcraft), which interfere with many areas of human life.
