Ancient Gods in Today's Advertising
Kohoutová, Alena ; Kepartová, Jana (advisor) ; Skopek, Robert (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with ancient mythology influence on advertising specifically with usage of remarkable characters' names in titles of companies and products. It compares information gathered from internet domains, portals and companies' representation with literature specialised in ancient Greco-Roman mythology. Names of the gods and heroes are more frequently used with inner context in their Greek form rather than in Roman form and they are often written with no punctuation. Very common is usage of acronyms which bear resemblance to specific names, however, without any closer relation to the given mythological theme. Most comapny titles really have relatively traceable relation to the ancient myths, which is described in this work. Many of those companies have chosen their names because of the euphonious effect they possess. The research brought to light many appropriately used names related to various fields of business that have not been thoroughly exploited before, eg. name of Hercules. Also, findings unknown to the authors were made revealing eg. relation between Diana and nuts etc. Although it was not possible to embrace presence of all the names in mentioned titles, this work provides adequate insight into the matter of ancient Greco-Roman culture and its topicality as it is related...

Education of boys in Ancient Sparta. Agoge in the athenien bibliography in the context of Sparto-Athenien rivalry
Borská, Karolína ; Kepartová, Jana (advisor) ; Skopek, Robert (referee)
Od mé první cesty v do Řecka, již před 20 lety, roste můj zájem o tuto oblast, která tolik ovlivnila evropskou kulturu a vzdělanost. Můj zájem o téma výchovy chlapců ve Spartě byl pak vyvolán studiem na univerzitě v Perpignanu, kde jsem v rámci studijního pobytu Erasmus rok studovala dějiny. Volnost ve výběru předmětů mne vedla k zapsání především přednášek z antických dějin. Překvapivě, antické Řecko a Řím jsou pro tamní studentky velkou neznámou a poprvé se s nimi setkávají až na vysoké škole. Nižší školství ve svých osnovách tuto část evropské historie nemá. Samotné přednášky byly spíše povrchovým opakováním už známých věcí, k rozšíření vědomostí sloužily semináře, které se pod vlivem francouzské historiografícké školy zabývaly především antickou každodenností. Vzhledem k tomu, že na oplátku tato část je u nás v především politicko-ekonomických přednáškám opomíjena, bylo to velmi obohacující. Poprvé jsem se dozvěděla něco více o výchově v dórských státech a celá otázka mne zaujala natolik, že jsem si hned začala půjčovat doplňkovou literaturu s cílem napsat tuto práci, která jak bych ráda, by měla seznámit její čtenáře s obrazem a hlavními rysy výchovy chlapců v klasické Spartě. Pro práci používám české, anglické nebo francouzské překlady původních antických děl. A frankofonní a anglosaskou...

Antiquity in the Inscriptive Culture of the Czech Lands
Kepartová, Jana
Author informs of the database that will contain inscriptions from the Czech lands that have something to do with antiquity. The aim of this longterm project is to gradually document and analyse the heritage of antiquity in the epigraphic culture of the Czech Lands from the first inscriptive documents to the present, regardless of whether or not the heritage is conscious or unconscious. The outcome of the entire project will be studies on 'Nachleben / the second life' of the ancient world in inscriptions in the Czech Lands, i.e. an area to which insufficient attention has been paid so far. Only in this phase of the project will the ways that antiquity had been getting into Czech inscriptions be studied. This second life of antiquity in our country will be confronted with the heritage of antiquity in the epigraphic culture of other Central European countries.

Ancient World in the 19th Century: Close or Distant?
Kepartová, Jana
The author deals with the relationship between Czech society of the 19th century and the ancient world. Despite many school lessons devoted to this subject the autopsy has demonstrated that the ancient world with its pagan mentality remained rather distant for the Czech society of the 19th century.
