Plavnický, Tomáš ; Novotný, Vojtěch (advisor) ; Červenková, Denisa (referee)
This thesis deals with the life and mission of Mother Teresa. Her approach to people and especially the poor was motivated by love for Christ. She saw Christ in the suffering and dying people. She wanted people to not die alone and therefore founded the Missionaries of Charity order, which in a short time spread throughout the world. Thus, the idea gradually became known in the Church and in the world. Mother Teresa was rewarded and hosted by the powerful of this world, but always returned with love to her poor ones. Besides charity work she was also an ardent advocate of life and peace. Her message is still alive today, and her life, even though it was very plain, permanently left its mark on Christianity. The aim of this work is to present the main theological and anthropological approaches of Mother Teresa based on available texts, and to indicate the impact of this saint on contemporary Christianity.

The concept of existence by Karl Jaspers
Šulcová, Irena ; Zika, Richard (advisor) ; Marek, Jakub (referee)
EN: Jaspers came to philosophy from medicine and psychology. Unique personal situation, authentic life experience, unrepeatable faithful self-respect turned psychopathologist Jaspers from psychiatric physiology of soul to the thesis of ciphers of transcendence, borderline, edge and horizon. He constituted his own pattern of the thinker not only as an explaining teacher, but also as co-creator of original ethics, based on deep comprehension of the other, importance of encompassing communication between man and man. First section of my work deals with the concept of Border. Our attitudes and picture of the universe and its evaluation are limited by borders. The holistic complex being remains behind the horizon The second part is dedicated to border-line situation as an phenomenon of possibility, as seen from the point of view of Jaspers own existence, as presented in his Philosophy, including commentary based on new translations by Vaclav Nemec Closing part deals with existential communication and holistic transition from possible to new horizons of transcendence. My interpretation of chosen excerpts comes mostly from "Psychologie der Weltanschauungen." Quotations appear in my own translation.
