Broulímová, Olga ; Velek, Luboš (advisor) ; Činátl, Kamil (referee)
(in English): The presented bachelor's thesis is going to outline the progress and the form of an educational process of girls in an aristocratic environment in the Bohemian Lands, particularly in the 18th - 19th century. By using literature sources and graduate's works, it describes the education of noble girls from their birth up to the completion of the educational process in the convent school or by an educational trip to Europe, respectively up to the weddings and starting their own families. Besides the requirements for education of noble children, including specific structure of subjects, the thesis pays attention to the people who provide upbringing and teaching - that are nannies, governesses and teachers. The thesis also deals with the Enlightenment and educational views of contemporary thinkers from John Locke to Johann Friedrich Herbart. By way of example of educational instructions and reflections written by noble ladies, the phenomenon of enlightened "new mother" is demonstrated. The institutions providing support and education to unmarried noble women and girls from impoverished families, such as the institutes for noble women and foundation, are mentioned as well.

National legitimacy played in the politics of post-war Communist Party of Czechoslovakia an important role. The addressees of communist policy should primarily be "members of the nation."

Gender, identity, body
Řídký, Josef ; Tinková, Daniela (advisor) ; Činátl, Kamil (referee)
The thesis Gender, identity, body attempts to set out a method suitable for historical description and analysis of representations of bodily identities, such as old age, childhood, race etc. The conceptualization of gender identities presents our starting point, the very capacity of the term of gender is examined through the reading of the works of Joan W. Scott and Judith Butler. In respect to our final purpose, the term appears convenient only partially, for it balances between two extremes: it is either overly dependent on gender binarism or it utterly ceases to represent bodily identities. This paper brings an alternative concept: corpus. Combining the concept of gender and the phenomenology of body, it conceives bodily identity as a type of Paul Ricoeur's narrative identity. Composing different bodily parts and behaviour stereotypes, this kind of identity creates a distinctive collective identity: corpus. In its next part, the thesis follows the construction of representations of old age and adolescence in the field of Czechoslovakian 20th century developmental psychology. It appears that both old age and youth are disqualified in the name of a symbolic adult-centrism. Keywords: gender studies - identity - phenomenology of body - marginal groups in the 20th century

History and narration. Palacký's "Dějiny" as a source of historical imagination of nation
Činátl, Kamil ; Šmahelová, Hana (advisor) ; Brabec, Jiří (referee) ; Vašíček, Zdeněk (referee)
This doctoral thesis mainly focuses on the narration of history and its culture creating potential - that is to say, its ability to form imagined communities. Primarily, it deals with the grand historiographic syntheses of national history (Michelet, Palacký, Lelewel etc.) emerging mainly in the 19th century, in which an important part was not played only by enlightenment criticism ad heuristics, but also by the traditional imaginative power of narrative. In the thesis this model of a "new" national historiography is particularly represented by Palacký's Dějiny národu českého v Čechách a na Moravě (The History of the Czech Nation in Bohemia and Moravia). The detailed narratological analysis of this work, which in many respects was the founding text of the modern Czech historical consciousness, attempts to illuminate to which extent the modern idea of nation was constituted by the historical imagination. Therefore, the analysis does not concentrate only on Palacký's The History, but also on the adjoining "gravitation field" of both historiographic and artistic representations of national history. The narratological point of view is employed also in the analysis of the mutual relations between historiographic narrative and historical fiction (historical novel). In many regards, the obscurity of the...
