Philippine Welser between Czech-language and German-language historical Memory
Boumová, Eliška ; Šedivá Koldinská, Marie (advisor) ; Hausenblasová, Jaroslava (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the life story of Philippine Welser (1527-1580), the ignoble wife of Ferdinand II., Archduke of Austria (1529-1595), as a subject for literary, theatrical and visual inspiration. The thesis draws on sources dating from the 16th century to the present and it also maps how castle and chateau expositions treat the topic. The methodology is based on the Czech tradition of exploration of Second Life. Comparison of sources of linguistically Czech and German-speaking environments yielded findings that these two traditions differ, each emphasizes a different part of life of Philippine Welser while both cope with aspects that the Czech National Revival, as well as the disintegration of the Austrian monarchy and development in the twentieth century brought.
Orthography of Augusta's Summovník
Šmídová, Kateřina ; Dittmann, Robert (advisor) ; Andrlová Fidlerová, Alena (referee)
This thesis presents graphemic analysis of the work "Summovník" by Jan Augusta, based on transliteration of selected stretches of texts. Identified as late as in 2012, the work has not been described yet. The work represents a print of the humanistic period, therefore the principal objective was to find out how two orthographic systems of the period - diagraphic and diacritic - interact. The analysis was divided into several chapters corresponding to the examined features that were statistically evaluated. The interpretation was especially based on two key 16th century grammars of Czech - the Grammar of Náměšť and the "Czech Grammar" by Jan Blahoslav. The transliterated text has been analysed in Microsoft Word 2007 by means of "Find and Replace" with "Use of substitute characters" instrument. The work of "Summovník" in this partially transliterated form can be used as a baseline for preparation of an edition of this work.
