SUCHÁNEK, Antonín
The following diploma work is proposing clarification of the circumstances around rise and growing importance of personal valets of Emperor Rudolf II., using studies of the individual careers of those valets. It studies their connections to powerful magnates and other court courtiers of Rudolf II. in the time before the battle of Bílá Hora. The diploma work takes all those aspects together and puts them into wider context. For this purpose were used examples of the three most well-known persons who served in such a function during the rule of Rudolf II., namely Jeroným Makovský z Makové, Filip Lang z Langenfelsu and Kašpar Rucký z Rudz. Due to the circumstances of their infamous ends we are able to gather enough papers from which to reconstruct and assort their individual biographies. By investigating numerous correspondences, promissory notes, processional acta (witness testimonies), deeds and other official or personal resources stored in the National archive in Prague and in the State archive in Vienna, it became possible to uncover the tangled networks of the valets' power connections and their accrual of wealth; to reveal possible reasons for their fast advancement, (the culmination of which was their acceptance into the knighthood) and also to answer some questions related to the difficulties therein.

The Czech News Agency (ČTK) is a media institution that collects, processes and provides its customers with information on domestic and foreign events. It represents an important source of information (not only) for other media. However, trying to provide prompt information on interesting events may lead to inaccuracies and excessive simplification, especially in areas where there is a specialised element. One of them is criminal proceedings, which take place within the limits set by law. Therefore, this diploma thesis aims to map the form of criminal proceedings taking place before the Czech courts, as depicted in the ČTK news, and possibly to draw attention to their shortcomings in terms of legal standards and ČTK's ethical rules. The diploma thesis is divided into five basic parts. The introductory part briefly describes the concept of criminal proceedings, its course, selected basic principles and terminology.
