Jakub František Prokyš
OLDŘICHOVÁ, Lucie
Jakub František Prokyš The bachelor work Jakub František Prokyš is intent on a successful painter who lived in the 18th century. He originally came from Slaný but his life fate took him into culturally developing South Bohemia. It was a great chance for him. Strongly flourishing Schwarzenberg's family were establishing their position in Bohemia not only by buying new areas but as well as by improving their former and newly gained dominion. That is why the Schwarzenbergs employed a lot of important architects, painters and sculptors. Jakub František Prokyš was among them. Everything has not been cleared up about Prokyš´ destiny up today. There are a lot of questions which answers we are still looking for. Basically, until to his coming to South Bohemia we do not have real data about his life and apprenticeship. Even in his South Bohemian life many questions are hidden. It is the most remarkable to follow how respectable person could become from a quite unknown artist. He got among notable people. He earned enough money to be able to buy his own house and take care of his family during his life. However, professional success was changed by family tragedies. He was a great fresco painter as well as he could paint even altar paintings. It is strange that his very early works are considered to be his best ones. Those were ordered by Joseph Adam Schwarzenberg. The most space is devoted to those works of art in my bachelor work. The aim of the work is my attempt at closer outlline of Prokyš´not well recognized life.

Schwarzenbergs and the railway. Relationship primogeniture Schwarzenberg to rail transport in the 19th century.
IVANOV, Jan
Railway and nobility - at first glance the opposite sides of one coin. The aristocracy was considered conservative part of society, as a symbol of "the old times". Railway presented the other side of the coin: ?the new age? and economical progress. What was the same on these two symbols? Why nobility supported the build of railroads through their domain? How was the role of Nobles in the construction of railroads? The point of view of this publication is at the history of railways in terms of Nobles as the businessmen. Shows an example of primogeniture Schwarzenberg, how aristocrats engage themselves in the construction of railways, railway companies in the management and support local projects. You can find here examples of the nobility built industrial railroad for their business. The work shows that the nobility to maintain its economic power after the abolition of feudalism had to adopt modern capitalism and the development of rail transport.
