Bednářová, Tereza ; Vysokajová, Margerita (advisor) ; Tomšej, Jakub (referee)
Working hours and rest periods Abstract The master's thesis deals with the topic of working hours and rest periods. These legal institutes are presented not only from the perspective of current domestic legal regulations de lege lata but also outline their historical development from the medieval period to the present, including their significant connections with both EU and international law. A significant part of the work is also dedicated to flexible forms of working hours, such as remote work, which popularity has increased in recent years, especially in the context of the global COVID-19 pandemic. At that time, this alternative method represented an ideal way to minimize the risk of disease transmission while allowing both employees and employers to continue their work activities. Given that both working hours and rest periods affect nearly every economically active individual in the labour market, the master's thesis also briefly mentions related psychological impacts that can occur in an individual's life in connection with the setting of working hours and rest periods.

This places significant demands not only on individuals themselves but also on legal...

Bohemian Baroque Cut Glass
Bednářová, Tereza ; Otavský, Karel (advisor) ; Brožková, Helena (referee)
Bohemian Baroque Cut Glass Bohemian Baroque cut glass dates back to the reign of Rudolph II., when numerous artists came to Prague including gem cutters and, later on, also glassmakers such as Caspar Lehmann. The promising development was interrupted by the Thirty Years' War. However, that was followed by a prosperous period and advances in perfecting the glass, which came to be known as "Bohemian crystal" due to its properties that were similar to rock crystal produced at an earlier time. Bohemian crystal triggered a development in engraving and cutting techniques for which it was suitable due to its unusual hardness, and soon the Bohemian cut glass attained an exquisite quality. The development of Bohemian glassmaking was also influenced by other countries with their own specific glass production, such as Italy and Germany. The products, which were purely status symbols at first, gradually became popular and reached the wider public. The motifs of the Bohemian Baroque cut glass came primarily from graphic works and coins, and were further influenced by the style of the time and clients' wishes. Two regions with the highest concentration of glassworks gradually developed in the lands of the Bohemian Crown. The first was South Bohemia and the second North Bohemia, which also became a centre for...
