Discourse about Hussitism in Czech society of 20th century and its illustration in the Hussite Trilogy by Otakar Vávra
Hlaváčková, Terezie ; Doležalová, Eva (advisor) ; Urgošíková, Blažena (referee)
The angle under which Czech society sees Hussitism has undergone a rapid turn over the last few decades. The planned B.Sc. thesis aims to contribute to the identification of roots and prerequisites of this turnaround laid by previous development of Czech society and culture, especially after the World War II. It is obviously also necessary to analyse the preceding long- term development, from the beginnings of the national revival through Tyl and Palacký up to Jirásek and Nejedlý. The main subject of the work will then be an analysis of new elements in the view of hussitism contained in the film trilogy by Otakar Vávra (Jan Hus, Jan Žizka, Against All), and their reception by contemporaries and subsequent generations.

An ideal ruler - Charles IV - viewed by Dante Alighieri, Cola di Rienzo and Francesco Petrarca
Janušová, Martina ; Doležalová, Eva (advisor) ; Beneš, Zdeněk (referee)
The emperor Charles IV descended from the house of Luxembourg. Dante Alighieri regarded his grandfather, Henry VII, as an ideal ruler who should reign not only over the Empire but also over the Church. Charles IV himself is known to have been a very educated man, who maintained many contacts throughout Europe. Among Charles's admirers there were also two Italian humanists, Francesco Petrarca and Cola di Rienzo, whose lives headed in a different direction, but who both saw embodiment of Dante's idea of perfect ruler in Charles IV. In this study I would like to focus on the influence that Dante's concept of ideal ruler could have on Charles' way of government and on the relations between Charles IV and the mentioned two humanists, of whom the former was Charles's friend while the other only met Charles at the Prague court as a fugitive in disguise.

Bishop and king. Relations between the last bishops of Prague and their Přemyslid kings
Boušková, Eva ; Doležalová, Eva (advisor) ; Kubín, Petr (referee)
Bishops of the diocese of Prague were not only the highest representatives of the Church in Bohemia. They were also active at the courts of Bohemian princes and kings, not only as clergymen, but often also as diplomats. Relations between princes and kings of Bohemia on the one hand and the bishops on the other hand had remarkable dynamics and varied depending on the development of events, both domestic and international, and on their mutual likings or dislikings. The project intends to investigate the progress of the relations between bishops of Prague and kings of Bohemia throughout the late Middle Ages in the mirror of their careers, their political and cultural achievements and other information referring to them.
