Frývaldský, Pavel ; Pospíšil, Ctirad Václav (advisor) ; Mohelník, Tomáš (referee)
Anglická anotace The Christology in the work of Joseph Ratzinger Pavel Frývaldský This thesis presents an analysis of the significant Christological works of Joseph Ratzinger. The aim of this work is to find and examine the constant features and development of Ratzinger's Christological reflection. The comparative analysis of his work was done from two points of view: the work of Ratzinger during his academic engagement and the work of Ratzinger as Cardinal and head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. In a diachronic analysis we examine biblical sources, quotations of Fathers, medieval authors and present-day theologians. In the diachronic analysis we research these areas of interest: Christological titles, the theology of incarnation, the mystery of Jesus' life, the theology of the cross and the interpretation of resurrection. From the analysis of the Christological titles we learned, which titles Ratzinger considers to be important, how he comprehends them and how he elaborates on the question of origination. In the analysis of theology of incarnation we can see an expression of the relation between incarnation and the cross, Christ centrism, reflection of the hypostatic union. The examination of the mystery of the life of Jesus explains the conception of the pre-paschal Jesus. The analysis...

The question of miracles in non-christian religions
Adamczyk, Piotr ; Pelc, Bogdan (advisor) ; Ryšková, Mireia (referee)
This thesis deals with the question of miracles in non Christian religions. The idea of a miracle forms an essential part of all religions, i.e. not only in Christianity. In all faiths unusual divine interference exists. The first chapter deals with the miracle from the point of view of Catholic theology, specifically the conception of the miracle in the work of St. Augustin and St. Thomas Aquinas. Besides that, it also contains the contemporary definition of a miracle. In the second chapter a description is given of the conception of a miracle in the Old and New Testament. In the third chapter we find a presentation of ethnical faiths with their conception of a miracle (if relevant), which were performed by kings, magicians and witchmen. In the fourth chapter the question of miracle is related to two universal religions, i.e. Buddhism and Islam. These universal religions influenced the history of religion and were therefore elaborated upon separately. We should comprehend a miracle as a divine sign, which belongs to the basic conceptions of this term and does not only exist in Christianity. The history of religion confirms that in all faiths, which were studied, exist divine signs, which could be interpreted as miracles. Key words: - miracle - miracle in non-Christian religions - miracle in the...

Klouzová, Aneta ; Prahl, Roman (advisor) ; Machalíková, Pavla (referee)
English abstract: In this my master thesis I attempt to depicture comprehensively the life-work of Viktor Barvitius (1834 - 1902), one of the Czech Pioneers of Modern Realism. Tracing the fates and influences that had formed the oeuvre of this fancier of urban turmoil helps us to figure out his positron within the kontext of period art. Barvitiuses creation embraces all main domains of painting of the time: portrayals, historical painting, genre; it has reached its peak during his stay in France between 1865 and 1867. For his immediate reaction to the French Modern Realism and together with Karel Purkyně and Soběslav Pinkas, Barvitius represents one of the prophets of the Czech Programme Realism. In 1877, Barvitius got a commission as an inspector of the SVPU Art Gallery; Czech museum culture is a great deal due to his activity on the field. Barvitiuses whole life artistic work, both theoric and practical, make him an important figure of Czech cultural history. Hooked illustration and period and later reviews make an integral part of my thesis. It also includes the list of Barvitiuses art pieces owned by Czech museums and galleries, Czech National Gallery in Prague, the art pieces that were the subjects of auction-sale and the inventory of his art work.

The principle of this work is focused on general relationship between American literature and the theme of the forest, which is deeply rooted in the history of American colonization and creating new American nation. The main aim is to point out the specific role of the forest in American literature (especially the influence of puritanism and transcendentalism). Another aim is to find out if the forest really represents important moral aspects and influences the behaviour of both individuals and the whole society in Hawthorne?s work. Answers to these questions can be found in the fundamental part of the diploma thesis, which is based on the literary analysis of particular texts, novels and short stories, in which the world of the forest is confronted with the problems of morality and faith.
