Partial Czech translations of the Roman Breviary 1800-1974
PAVLÍK, Jakub
The thesis examines Czech translations from the Roman Breviary created in the period between 1800 and the liturgical reform of the Second Vatican Council. Catalogue of such translations has been prepared. Based on the catalogue, the most important text families are identified and described in detail. It turns out that most of the translations were created for purposes of publicly celebrated Vespers, chanted in the vernacular. Based on historical experience with this pre-conciliar paraliturgical form, a few final suggestions are made for public celebration of the Liturgy of the Hours today.

This master thesis introduces Jiří Pilát (4. 4. 1921 - 7. 6. 2007), a native of Posázaví. He had been concerned with music on a non-professional level all his life, especially with liturgical music. In order to carry on his interest he created a rich archive, mostly by searching and transcribing the score material. The work aims to show his life and work with regard to both his lifelong musical focus and local activity, and his conceivable influence on the broader cultural awareness. It is comprised from five main chapters: the life of Jiří Pilát, his heritage, a choir and an orchestra in Poříčí nad Sázavou, efforts to re- reveal the work of Jan Dismas Zelenka and draw attention to it; and the musical legacy of Jiří Pilát.

Spiritual backround of Dvořák's cantata Stabat Mater
Řehák, Miroslav ; Sládek, Karel (advisor) ; Mašek, Vojtěch (referee)
The aim of this work is to find the spiritual backround of Antonín Dvořák's (1841−1904) cantata Stabat Mater. The work is divided into three main parts: a short summary of Antonín Dvořák's life before the composition of the cantata and the events which preceeded; the phenomenon Stabat Mater and the comparison of the origin and the conception of cantata with the chosen authors of the world's music and Dvořák's conception of the work, his emphasis and evaluation. The matter of the analysis is the process of merging of Dvořák's spiritual and musical life, the choice of Stabat Mater and his work's influence on his personal spiritual life. Another aspect of the work is searching for the criterion if the creation of musical work can be seen as spiritual or if it can't; the necessity of connection and life with the God's person, the Holy Ghost, unification with him and gradually growing into something which the artist can create in connection with the Holy Ghost and what through the Holy Ghost creates the spiritual work. Keywords Dvořák, Stabat Mater, Holy Ghost, pneumatology, prayer, spiritual formation, liturgic music Počet znaků (včetně mezer): 105 439

Hymn and its Tradition in Late Medieval Bohemia
Mráčková, Veronika ; Hlávková, Lenka (advisor) ; Vlhová-Wörner, Hana (referee) ; Gancarczyk, Pawel Tomasz (referee)
The Abstract The Hymn and its Tradition in Late Medieval Bohemia Veronika Mráčková, Charles University, Prague The present thesis concerns the monophonic and polyphonic office hymns preserved in late medieval Bohemian sources. The author is mainly focused on the repertoire of the hymns written in Strahov Codex from around 1467. This manuscript of uncertain provenance contains an enormous collection of three- and four- voice polyphonic hymns which show plenty of the local characteristics. These domestic traits may be identified not only through texts devoted to indigenous Saints, but also through the melodies which form the cantus firmus in the upper voice of the hymns. The identification of these monophonic tunes in other plainchant sources could help us to determine the origin of Strahov Codex. Additionally, it is clear that this mensural manuscript contains not only music of a high artistic standard, but also a number of less polished compositions, and that it is thus an important witness to the existence of a wide range of daily musical activities in late medieval Bohemia. A crucial part of this dissertation is a critical edition of the monophonic hymn tunes preserved in Roudnice Psalter, as well as an edition of the selected polyphonic hymns written in Strahov Codex.
