Rampáčková, Monika ; Mléčka, Jan (referee) ; Štěpán, Marek (advisor)
The master's thesis deals with famous Notre-Dame de Paris, which was destroyed by fire in 2019. The work focuses specifically on the design of completion of the construction. The cathedral is situated in the historical centre of Paris on the Île de la Cité. A lot of damage was caused to the building after the devastating fire on 15 April 2019. The aim of the thesis was to create a spiritual place that would maintain its past, but at the same time manage to follow ecological solutions in the present. The new design of the attic creates a sacred place, in which we realize the importance of faith and the peace of God. The cathedral is open to the general public ? religious people from all over the world come here to experience the love, joy and happiness that the cathedral invokes. The whole attic can be described as an open space, which symbolizes infinity or immortality from the religious point of view. It represents the connection of the past, present and future. The space is designed to hold priestly celebrations and to be open for the public. It can also be used for various events, such as exhibitions of sculptures that survived the fire.

Through Votive Art to Salvation: Monumental English Micro-Architecture from 1300 to 1450
Zimová, Ladislava ; Kuthan, Jiří (advisor) ; Šmied, Miroslav (referee)
The aim of the disseration is to discuss forms of commemorative art. The main focus is given to the development of micro-architectural elements as well as medieval liturgical practices. The dissertation briefly summarises historical, economic and cultural factors between 1300-1450 and their influence on the rise of gentry, guilds and merchants. They, together with the royals and clergy, were becoming influential commissioners of art at that time. English sacred buildings are not as soaring as those on the European continent. Several earthquakes are taken into account when discussing this specific character of English medieval architecture. A vast church interior space encouraged a development of micro- architectural structures. Mutual influences beween macro-architecture of buildings and micro-architecure of monuments is researched on an art-historical basis. Micro-architecture in England is very ornamental indeed. The term Decorated Style is used. English churches and cathedrals are impressive in terms of size. Their interiors offer lavishness of micro-architecture. Keywords English medieval architecture. Commemorative and votive art. Chantry chapels. The Black Death. The cult of the saints in the Middle Ages.

Decorative elements of the Gothic architecture
SZKANDEROVÁ, Aneta
The theoretical part will be devoted to the development of individual decorative elements in the European Gothic architecture. The main emphasis will be placed on the Czech territory, especially on the so-called South Bohemian Gothic. From the decorative elements, the work will focus primarily on the window traverses in connection with the practical part of this work. The aim of the practical part is to create a haptic model of a Gothic window with a decorative tracery, which will be primarily intended for persons with visual disabilities. A specific gothic window from the cloister to the parish court of the Dominican monastery and the Church of the Sacrifice of the Mary, mother of Jesus, in České Budějovice will serve as a template. The resulting model will be made from a drawn gypsum profile and will be accompanied by a set of sketches. At the same time, the haptic model will be part of the exhibition "Haptic models for people with disabilities" in the monastery mentioned above.

Parlerovská architektúra, súvisiaca s priamou činnosťou rodu Parler, trvala približne od poslednej tretiny 14. storočia do polovice 15. storočia. Stavitelia, ktorí pokračovali v odkaze rodu Parler, stavali približne do záveru 15. storočia. Uvedená architektúra zahŕňa cirkevné stavby (kostoly, kaplnky), hrady (v rámci ktorých boli stavané aj kaplnky) a radničnú kaplnku. Stavby priamo, resp. sprostredkovane súvisia so staviteľskou činnosťou rodu Parler, ktorého člen Peter Parler, pôsobiaci predovšetkým v Prahe, uviedol do architektúry nové riešenia, uplatňované počas viacerých generácií staviteľov, aj členmi iných staviteľských rodov. Priama činnosť členov rodu Parler s menami Henrich ml., Václav a Janco je v práci preskúmaná z hľadiska pravdepodobnosti a hypotéz ich pôsobenia na západnom Slovensku. V stredoveku bola aj svetská architektúra úzko spojená s božským poslaním s odkazmi na...

Hejdová, Tereza ; Zdichynec, Jan (advisor) ; Zilynská, Blanka (referee)
The work The Convent of Poor Clares in Panenský Týnec maps the history of the female convent since its beginning in the end of 13th century until the year 1782, when the monastery was abolished by the reforms of the Joseph II. The focal point of the text lies in the processing of archival sources, primarily the missives of the abbesses and the responses to the different personalities on them. These materials were divided by the source-analyse into the property matter and the ecclesiastical service. These processed circuits the work tries to bring into the wider historical context. Marginally the text concerns also the unfinished convent temple, which attracts attention by its magnificence and because of him became a township Panenský Týnec very famous tourist and "esoteric" locality in the present.

It processes work of Václav Beneš Třebízský and in the particulars is demonstrated, that the writer, who is considered as the author of the historical prose, uses the monastery with its history only for the free inspiration.
