Investments in South Bohemia
SCHREIBEROVÁ, Veronika
The topic of my thesis is Investment activities in South Bohemia. The aim of my work was examining activities of investment in South Bohemia. In my work I wrote about the investments in general, investments in the Czech Republic and in the South Bohemia region. I gathered information from special literature, the internet, and I visited the institutions as regional authority of South Bohemia and corporate town of České Budějovice. In face of possibilities in investments of this region, the use of capacities is insufficient. In the region of South Bohemia we have many investments to transport infrastructure. If these investments are finished in the right time, in high-quality, it will increase investment to our region as for better transport connection. Supporting of investment and business is a very important thing. In our region there are institutions for supporting businessmen as a branch of CzechInvest in České Budějovice and the South Bohemia Economic Chambre, which provides advice to businessmen in the beginning of their business. The Regional authority of South Bohemia was established a new server about investment possibilities, but generally in our region there is a lack of information. The Regional Authority can give an attention of the server to the public. In my work I stated examples of future investments as the motorway D3, the railway Corridor R4 from Prague to České Budějovice to Austria and the airport in Planá near České Budějovice. Another investment is building a new town quarter in the area of Čtyři Dvory, the previous military area.

NOVOTNÁ, Lucie
The thesis deals with Marian cult in South Bohemia. First the thesis provides an overview of the origins and development of Pietas Mariana in Europe and especially in the Czech Lands from the 9th century to the present time. A rise of the Marian cult could be observed in Bohemia and Moravia even in the Baroque period and among those members of the orders who considered the Virgin Mary to be their founder, protector or patron. Marian piety, Marian places of pilgrimage and Marian lay communities played also an important role in the so-called ``Marian century{\crqq} (1854-1950). The last but one chapter provides a brief summary of Marian places of pilgrimage in South Bohemia (churches, chapels, wells) including their legends, stories and miracles. The last chapter describes six best known Marian places of pilgrimage in the diocese of České Budějovice in detail (e.g. Chlum u Třeboně, Klokoty, Lomec, Římov, Sepekov and Svatý Kámen u Rychnova nad Malší).
