Remembering Terezín Through Music
Toperczerová, Eliška ; Jurková, Zuzana (advisor) ; Seidlová, Veronika (referee)
Summary: This thesis focuses on a theme of musical remembrance of Terezín. It is an empirical, ethnomusicological field research. At its centre is František Tichý, headmaster of the Gymnázium Přírodní škola. I focuse on an analysis of his pedagogical, literary and dramatic activities, which I examine in the context of musical remembrance of Terezín. The aim of this research is to describe, analyze and to interpret by means of participating observation and semi-structured interviews: 1) How does the negotiation and production of performances take place, where František Tichý acts as a playwrighter, dramatist, director and musical dramatist in cooperation with his colleagues and pupils? 2) How does Frantisek Tichý contextualize and use music in the school projects of Gymnázium Přírodní škola? 3) How do these projects affect the construction of ideas about Terezín's history? Is there an alternative narrative generated by the use of artworks by Terezín authors, in which (above all) music becomes a means of remembering? In this research, I primarily follow the ethnomusicologist Zuzana Jurková, who focuses on remembrance as part of her research at the Faculty of Humanities. Key words: Ethnomusicology, Přírodní škola, František Tichý, remembrance, Terezín

Pietá in the Czech Art in the first half of the 20th Century.
Jarolímková, Klára ; Lahoda, Vojtěch (advisor) ; Rakušanová, Marie (referee)
This thesis is concerned with the motif of Pietà in the painting and graphic by the Czech and Czech-German artists in the first half of the twentieth century. It explores the inpirations and influences of the religiously oriented pieces of this set of painters. At the beginning there is summarized the evolution of the iconographic motif of Pietà which was isolated from the motifs of the Lamentation of Christ and the Descent from the Cross. The thesis has two parts. First one focuses on the Czech artists and the second one on the Czech-German artists belonging to the Czech artistic scene in this period. The chapters are named after the intellectual basis and the similarity of expression of the included artists. In the early 20th century Rudolf Adámek was occupied by the motif of Pietà in the association with the contemporary symbolism. Karel Holý shifted the meaning of Pietà to the formulation of the hard human deal as well as František Tichý in his compositions od the Good Samaritan quite similar to the wooden gothic statues of Pietà. The existentialist ideas appeared in the work of Jan Autengruber. Vojtěch Tittelbach mixed the existentialist anxiety with the joyful circus performances. The theme of Pietà became actual in the wartime. Karel Černý responded with several paintings of Weepers with...

Micka, Alois ; Lahoda, Vojtěch (advisor) ; Wittlich, Petr (referee)
5 ANNOTATION The subject of this bachelor work is the description and presentation of the works of Mr. Frantisek Tichy. The aim is to focus on his works in the 1940s in the context of his peak of technical abilities and the development of spirituality in his works. For the purpose of organization, Mr. Tichy's artwork is classified by the date of the creation and organized accordingly. It is also divided into individual chapters in accordance to the techniques being used. The introduction of this work focuses mostly on the life of Mr. Frantisek Tichy. In particular, much is focused on his education in painting and the influential events in his life that have had an impact on his artwork. Undoubtedly, a large role in his artwork was thanks to his pedagogical role at the Fine Arts University in the 1940s. Much of his artwork also reflected the political situation and social changes of the time. Mr. Tichy did not adapt his works in favour of the principles of social realism and thus also was discharged from the university. The following chapters are devoted to his actual artwork. His artwork is clearly defined into many categories such as: painting, graphics, illustrations, practical artwork and theatre. Throughout his life, Mr. Tichy went through an entire cycle of themes, which he has continued to portray in...
