The History of the Parish in Most 1945-1990
Hausner, Martin ; Petráček, Tomáš (advisor) ; Stříbrný, Jan (referee)
The aim of this work was to describe the history of the parish in Most in years 1945 - 1990. This period comprises almost half a century, which was full of dramatic events in the state, political, municipal, parochial and private area. The defeat of the Nazi ideology occured at the beginning of this period and the fall of the atheistic ideology at its end. Also the parish in Most was afflicted by many changes and strokes during this period. Firstly, it was the post- war terror against German inhabitants and their violent removal. Shortly afterwards occurs the communist putsch, which leads to the initially hidden and soon afterwards to the open fight against Churches. The Church becomes a slave to the supervision and the authority of state officials. The parish in Most with its churches is almost symbolically in the spirit of the time swept off from the earth's surface at this time and the asylum was founded in a small parish hall. After nearly twenty years of living in the constant provisional arrangement has the parish its own church again. The totalitarianism is at the end of its power and the democracy is coming. The parish in Most is learning to live and to breath freely after many decades of the lack of the freedom. Keywords History, church, parish, churches, priests

The Beginning of the Sacral Architecture in West Bohemia. Chapters from Church Archeology.
Čechura, Martin ; Sommer, Petr (advisor) ; Hauserová, Milena (referee) ; Kovář, Miroslav (referee)
The aim of the thesis is a research of the oldest sacral architecture on the example of one region - West Bohemia. While historical research has suggested that the oldest churches were built at administrative castles and formed the basis of a great-parish system, archaeological sources show a different image. Already during the 11th century, we have documented a number of churches in the landscape. Their relationship to older burial grounds is being explored. Compared to the supposed discontinuity between older row burial sites and church cemeteries, it appears that in many cases there was a direct spatial connection. The churches were founded in places of older settlement, as well as in places of older cemeteries. Archaeological research has documented wooden buildings and stone architecture too. In several cases, spatial and functional links to residences have been explored. In many cases, a greater age of churches was proved. Some churches were preceded by an older sacral building. The position of some churches on important roads and borders indicates their symbolic role. The results of archaeological research formulated to questions who were the builders of these churches and what was their role in medieval society. Thus, the view of the early Christianization of the early medieval population...

Latin inscriptions in České Budějovice
FROJDOVÁ, Marie
The thesis deals with the analysis of Latin inscriptions in the cadaster of České Budějovice. Latin inscriptions in České Budějovice have its origin mainly in the 17th and 18th century and are connected with the sacral objects, buildings and statues. The inscriptions either in or on buildings often contain chronogram, from which it is possible to uncover the date of the construction or reconstruction (e.g. there is one chronogram depicting the date of the monastery reconstruction on the St. Anne Church, another can be found on the town hall, wine shop building or on the St. Nicholas Cathedral). Chronogram can also be found on the gravestones, whence the year of the decease or the year of the gravestone making can be determined (the Church of the Presentation of the Virgin Mary). We also often get in touch with the chronograms at the inscriptions on the pedestals of Josef Dietrich's statues. A difference was discovered in the text on the Marian sculptural group. The text which had been suggested by the town council (1715 signing the contract) is different from the real text (1716 contract making). The text differs when creating the chronogram and it is needed to surmise, what is correct. Interesting are the inscriptions written in Beuronese style (the Church of the Rosary Virgin Mary, the Church of John of Nepomuk and the Church of the Divine Lord´s Heart). The inscriptions contain the texts from the Bible, also from the Latin Vulgate, shortenings and signs; therefore they are difficult to translate. Most often the chapters from the Book of Sirach are quoted, which contains informative wisdoms. Latin inscriptions also celebrate the donator (Calvary Terezie Aichlerová), rulers (town hall Charles VI) or the originators of work (the Church of the Rosary Virgin Mary Klement Petr). Current inscriptions bind to the buildings which they are written on (archive script, university education).
