Coronation of Joseph I. to become the king of Rome in Augsburg in 26. January 1690
MICHŇOVÁ, Nikola
The presented diploma thesis deals with the election and coronation of archduke Joseph to become the king of Rome that took place in January 1690 in Augsburg. It focuses on a reconstruction of the individual ritual steps of coronation ceremonies that had fixed ceremonial rules. It aims to interpret the rich symbolic message of all performance parts that the author describes chronologically as they followed one another. They included the ceremonial entrance of the imperial family into Augsburg, the arrival of the individual electors of the Roman-German Empire into the city, the pre-election negotiations, the election of the new king of Rome as such and the coronation of the elected archduke Joseph that followed. Attention was also paid to the sumptuous celebrations and the spectacular coronation feast that took place after the young Habsburg was enthroned. Presenting precious gifts to the emperor, his wife and son was also part of the performances. Members of the reigning dynasty accepted priceless objects from the representatives of the municipality of Augsburg and of the Estates of the Roman-German Empire, the allegoric decoration of which bore rich symbolism. The thesis therefore attempts to uncover the individual symbolic elements of the decoration constituted mostly by motives from ancient mythology and scenes from Christian catechism. They celebrated the recipients of the gifts and mirrored ideal virtues that a ruler from the House of Habsburg should possess.

The Bachelor paper focuses on the use and the importance of rituals, as these forms of conduct find their application in human life generally and in kindergarten practices especially. The theoretical section - trying to define the term of ritual which can assume a broad range of meanings from a ceremony to a custom to an order or an ordered routine - describes different rituals, be they festivities, family rituals observed in association with daily routines, or rituals helping people to face the ever-changing conditions of life. The practical section, relying on the author's hands-on experience, deals with daily rituals practiced throughout the year in kindergartens and, having proceeded to the research part, it analyses rituals followed in a group of chosen infant schools. To support the research effort, the author opted for the method based on a questionnaire.

Rituals associated with Marijuana Smoking
PAVLIŇÁKOVÁ, Lenka
As the popularity of cannabis in the Czech Republic is increasing, the need to gather more information about its users is also growing. So I decided to write a bachelor thesis about the phenomenon of marijuana use. The theoretical part is focused on the cannabis plant. The taxonomy and description of the plant is presented here as well as the active substances it contains. I also pointed out various ways of use of cannabis and symptoms of intoxication. Then the thesis focuses on the concept of ritual, specifically its definition, qualifications and functions. Everything is linked with cannabis use in history. The last two chapters deal with the ritual use of cannabis during time. While in history marijuana was only a matter of some classes of people (jazz musicians, hippies), today a large number of people regardless their social status or age smoke marijuana. The qualitative survey was used as a research method, which was conducted through narrative interviews accompanied by observation. Interviews were conducted with regular cannabis users and their aim was to identify the rituals associated with its use. The results were processed using techniques for creating clusters which constituted a total of five areas that meet the aspects of ritual behavior. These areas relate to first experiment with marijuana, marijuana preparations for use, number of people present during intoxication and the common places and time of use. All results of this thesis should serve the general public to understand better the issue of cannabis use.
