Zen Buddhism
Grendel, Petr ; Balabán, Milan (advisor) ; Hošek, Pavel (referee)
This work is not written because of evidence necessary to study Zen Buddhism and practice meditation. I rather want to show that Zen Buddhism view of the world and individual in it is at least latently present in our philosophical traditions. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

The Notion of Sehnsucht in the Works of C. S. Lewis
Hájek, Matěj ; Hošek, Pavel (advisor) ; Balabán, Milan (referee)
Předmětem mého studijního zájmu v této práci je fenomén sehnsucht jako významný prvek v díle anglického profesora renesanční literatury a spisovatele C. S. Lewise (1898-1963). Pozornost zaměřím především na Lewisovo hodnocení významu sehnsucht pro náboženské myšlení a zkušenost. Perspektivu tohoto autora jsem si vybral proto, že sehnsucht hraje v jeho díle i životním příběhu zásadní roli. Svou prací dojdu k vyhodnocení teze: Prožitek sehnsucht je z pohledu C. S. Lewise univerzálně přístupná lidská zkušenost touhy, jejímž předmětem je metafyzická poslední skutečnost. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

The World as "The First Sacrament". Concept of the World in the Liturgical Theology of Alexander Schmemann
Macháčková, Ivana ; Noble, Ivana (advisor) ; Hošek, Pavel (referee)
Alexander Schmemann, one of the greatest orthodox theologians of the twentieth century, understands world in his liturgical theology as a gift of God ́s love to man. Man was created as a priest of creation and he should accept creation as a gift and bring it in thanksgiving back to God. But man diverted from God, he lives in a self-centred way and he separated divine and profane. Salvation is seen by Schmemann in Jesus Christ, who renewed relation of man to God, renewed the continuity between the world and himself. The central place in Schmemann ́s liturgical theology has liturgy. The eucharist is described by Schmemann as the entrance of the Church into the joy of her Lord. It has cosmic, all- embracing character and it transforms everything. This liturgy takes place in separation from the world, but for the world. In the offering we bring to God the whole world and it becomes in the liturgy what it always should have been, but was not. The Church is the gift of reconciliation and forgiveness. She represents the whole creation before God. Schmemann strongly emphasises the role of community. He criticises attempts of unity from "below" and he also does not accept the activities of the Church in the social and political sphere. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Theology of The Twelve Tribes Community
Pokorná, Anna ; Vojtíšek, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Hošek, Pavel (referee)
The Theology of the Twelve Tribes Movement Abstract: Based on the theological literature of the Twelve Tribes movement, interwiews with the members, and observations in the czech community, this study brings a rewiew of the basic beliefs of this new religious movement. The study focuses on the biblical motives that are the main sources for the movement`s theology and for the everyday life. The study summaries the eschatological beliefs of the movement and comes to a conclusion that the eschatological wiew is the leading motive in the theoretical beliefs as well as the everyday life of the movement. The study finds that not only is the identification with the exclusive Holy Nation importatnt for the movement`s theology, it also determines the interactions with the outer society.
