Rokczaner family of Prague's Old Town. From councillors to knights
Chmátal, Jonáš ; Žemlička, Josef (advisor) ; Musílek, Martin (referee)
This bachelor's thesis is focused on Rockzaner family, one significant patrician family of Prague's Old Town. The goal of this thesis is to bring wide biographical description of this family. Similiar biography already exists but just as a part of monumental work of Vaclav Vladivoj Tomek from 70's of 19th century. That is why I am persuaded that such biography should be rewriten to better suit modern historical science. Another goal is to prove that topic of prague's patrician families is not exhausted and there is still a plenty of free space for a research to be done. Next to biographical description this thesis also contains one chapter devoted to Rockzaner's rural estates and its's problematic. As for my opinion this biography should stand as a basis for future research of Rockzaner family and their's economical and social activities. Keywords: Old Town of Prague, patrician, Okor castle, knight, Rockzaner, medieval, medieval city, citizen, location, 14th century, colonization, money loans, rural estates, city council

Telč in seventeenth century
MAREČEK, Jakub
The topic of my bachelor's work is the history of the town of Telč in the 17th century. I chose this historical epoch mainly for the reason that little attention was devoted to it in previous research of Telč history. First, I evaluate the works that have been written about Telč so far. I try to assess the approach of their authors and I investigate which historical period of the town they considered to be the heyday of time. I also focus on their view of the town in the 17th century. Subsequently, I incorporate Telč to the urban network in early modern times. I compare its size not only to towns in the Telč County but also to the size of urban settlements in Bohemia and Moravia. Afterwards, I introduce the members of Slavata family individually and their relationship to the town. Then, I concentrate on the impact of the Thirty Years War on the town and the situation thereafter. Finally, I reconstruct the appearance of the town administration on the basis of extant sources, its functioning and relationship to the castle lords in the last chapter.

Personnel composition of the city council in Netolice in the seventeenth century.
VOŘÍŠKOVÁ, Markéta
The topic of my bachelor thesis is the personnel composition and the recovery of the city council in Netolice in the seventeenth century because only few studies have been pursued on this topic. In my opinion it is one of the most important components of the operation of the towns and villages and it should not be ignored. I am going to outline the historical and political situation and then I am going to reconstruct the personnel composition of the city council of the South Bohemian town Netolice in the second part of the seventeenth century. The main sources were mostly the councillor protocols of the city council from 1693 till 1690 saved in State City Archive Prachatice in the fund Archive of the town Netolice. I am going to deal with the structure of the city administration (the city council, the reeve, the village elder). I am going to compare it with the situation in other towns or cities in early modern age. Then I am going to deal with the ceremonial of the elections and recoveries of the city council and I am going to try to reconstruct its proces and everything that belonged to it. The last part of my thesis concerns the compositin of the city council in chosen time period. The result should be the reconstuction of the composition of the political elites in Netolice which can become the ?springboard? to their detailed professional, social and property analysis in other qualifying thesis.
