František Bílek´s work in České Budějovice - art historical characteristics
FILOUS, Štěpán
This bachelor thesis will focus on the work of the sculptor František Bílek (1872-1941) in České Budějovice. Bílek created two monumental sculptural works right in the city - a stone monument to the writer Otakar Mokrý (1919) in today's Na Sadech park and several pieces of sculpture decoration in the interior of the Husův sbor church (1924) on today's Palacký square. Preparatory drawings and sculptures for both works have been preserved in the collections of Aleš South Bohemian Gallery in Hluboká. The aim of the thesis will be primarily a thorough iconographic analysis of Bílek's monumental realizations and also their art-historical analysis, while the author will use the just-mentioned related works in AJG. The author will also focus on the ordering context of the creation of the monument and the church decoration, or the position of both works in Bílek's related work. If it is possible and appropriate, the author will include references to other works in the AJG, which illustrate the iconographic and material breadth of Bílek's work.

Social Aspects in the Work of Petr Chelčický and His Legacy for the Present
CINÁDROVÁ, Markéta
Petr Chelčický is one of the reformers from the first half of the 15th century. Little is known about him as a person. Of his 50 extant works, the most famous of which are O boji duchovním (About a Spiritual Fight), Replika proti Rokycanovi (A Repartee to Rokycana), Postila (Sermones) and Síť víry (A Net of Faith). The main topics of his treatises are a critique of the Catholic Church, an appeal against violence as a mode of action, and embracing non-violence. He often deals with dogmatic issues, i. e. Eucharist, purgatory, sacraments, the presence of an Anti-Christ, etc. Chelčický places an emphasis on the equality of all people, and therefore rejects the medieval model of society based on three classes of people. He felt that a society must be founded on love of one's neighbors and obedience to God through the examples set down by the apostles and the apostolic Church. Denying violence, he sets himself apart the Hussites. Chelčický's ideas of non-violence, human equality, truth, conscience, and suffering are still relevant in today's modern society.
