Reconstruction of historical landscape features within manorial estates
Kučera, Petr ; Fialová, Zuzana
The methodology serves as a guideline for restoration of historical landscape features. The reason for using the methodology is a comparison of selected indicators of the condition of environment within the historical structure of manorial estates against the current state of landscape structure. The selection of relevant parameters focuses on the development of spatial and temporal development of landscape features that are in current terminology referred to as compositional parts of green infrastructure of an area. The importance of historical landscape elements in the structure of landscape lies in the support of ecosystem services that sustain the production capacity of landscape while enhancing environmental benefits.

Rural Landscape as an Aesthetic Object
LHOTSKÁ, Karolina

The history of mountain pastoral cooperatives 1945-1949 has not yet been sufficiently elaborated and reflected in the whole range of issues, not even at the national level, let alone at the level of each border political district or otherwise defined region. The presented text will focus on the genesis of mountain pasture cooperatives at the national level, in the political post-war context, including the fundamental theoretical background, and will describe in particular the implementation of six cooperatives in the Giant Mts (Krkonoše in Czech) and Giant Mts foothills, in particular the Trutnov political district. In the form of a probe, the implemented HPDs in the Prachatice district will be described for comparison. Comparison of the theoretical plans of the Ministry of Agriculture with concrete implementation in the complicated reality of the various ways of re-locating post-war sites in the Trutnov district brings a new perspective firstly on the evaluation of the success of the mountain pastoral cooperatives or on the limits and possibilities of their success. Secondly, it presents pastoral cooperatives as a key player in the transformation of the cultural landscape of some localities affected by them. At the same time, the study describes the exklusive possibility for grassland promoters to...

The evaluation was based on qualitative analysis. Textual content was analysed using the grounded theory method, selected photographs were subjected to semiotic analysis. The result shows that the Czech Republic is presented through CzechTourism brochures as a country that is a harmonious combination of natural treasures and historical monuments. The Czech Republic seems to be a tourist destination, after a visit to which a change of personality occurs: not only does one's physical and emotional state improve, but also one reflects on a number of issues such as the perception of spiritual values, awareness of oneself as a Czech citizen (for local residents), gaining new knowledge about the history of the Czech state (for foreign tourists).
