Virtue of Justice in Aquinas
ZÍVALOVÁ, Romana
This bachelor's thesis is devoted to the concept of the virtue of justice as defined and construed by Thomas Aquinas. In the opening chapters, I will introduce the life and work of St. Thomas and his ideas. Justice, which is considered by Thomas Aquinas as one of the cardinal virtues, is dealt with in depth by him, and is therefore given attention in this thesis. The work presented focuses on the applicability of his ideas and understanding of retributive justice for today's educational system. The thesis concludes with new perspectives on the issue of punishment in the framework of effective teaching and a comparison of their values is presented.

Rosenberg's rider and four virtues. Haptic model for people with disabilities
SZKANDEROVÁ, Aneta
The theoretical part deals with the history of the Rosenberg family. The main emphasis is placed on the so-called last Rosenbergs, especially on Petr Vok of Rožmberk and his work in southern Bohemia. Furthermore, this part describes the reconstruction of the ancestral residences, especially the Kratochvíle chateau and the symbol of the Rosenberg rider and the four cardinal virtues as part of the moral virtues of the Rosenberg rulers. The aim of the practical part was to create a haptic model of the Rosenberg rider and four virtues. The model for its creation was a specific stucco ceiling sculpture in the Golden Hall of Kratochvíle Castle. The haptic model was designed on the basis of a set of sketches and subsequently created from fired clay. This model will become part of the upcoming exhibition "Poslední Rožmberkové: Haptické modely pro osoby se zdravotním postižením" at the Kratochvíle State Castle. For this reason, the resulting model is adapter to the properties of people with visual impairments.

MOUČKOVÁ, Pavlína
The thesis focuses on Aristotelian-Thomist ethics system. In mainly deals with the differences in concept of beatitude, good and related issues, like the science of virtues. The emphasis is placed on understanding and covering the differences in aproach of St. Thomas Aquinas and Aristotele to these ethical topics. Firs the thesis characterises the main issue in Nicomachean Ethics, then outlines the thoughts and ideas of St. Thomas Aquinas in his Commentary, with emphasis on its diference from Aristoteles teachings. First three chapters are therefore the more descriptive part of the thesis, which is based on both primary and secondary textual sources. The fourth chapter is, then, the crucial, practical part, that summarizes St. Thomas theses and ideas concerning beatitude, good and happiness, coming from his unrivaled Commentary on the Ethics.
