Unconquered Yet Defeated. Fortress Towns of Bohemia and Moravia in the Austro-Prussian War of 1866
Kessler, Vojtěch ; Šrámek, J.
Authors of the essay have attempted, based on ego-documents, to reveal the borderlines of the discrepancy between the expected standard of intensity and duration of the Austro-Prussian conflict and the subsequent reality. One of the 19th-century mnodernizing processes condensed in the short and intense clash in the summer of 1866 when in consequence of increased density of the traffic infrastructure and the introduction of new communication and infrastructure networks, the world seemed „smaller“ and „faster“. The essay brings an analysis of the period discrourse that the autohors understand not only as a frame within which memories and events were performed, but also as a poduct of mnemonic processes.

MATĚJKOVÁ, Lucie
The theme of the bachelor´s thesis is the construction of avenue Mikulášská situated in Prague´s Old Town after the demolition of the original Jewish town. According to redevelopment plan there was built a long broad avenue in Old Town, which ideologically followed the original intent to connect the Old Town with left river bank through plain Letná up to the Prague Castle. This urban intervention brought to Prague phenomen of long wide french style boulevards. It is therefore obvious that the best architects of that time participated in the construction. Architectural front fasades are decorated predominantly in historical styles and uses elements of Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Art Nouveau. The aim of the thesis is to clarify the realization of selected apartment buildings and set their visual processing in the wider context of 19th century architecture and also to map the ideological proposals of continuing the avenue Mikulášská by breaking through Letná plain.
