Everydayness of Jezuit missionaires from Czech province in South America
Vilímcová, Zuzana ; Šedivá Koldinská, Marie (advisor) ; Holý, Martin (referee)
This thesis deals with the sub-themes of everydayness of Jesuit missionaries from Czech province in South America. The author, using sources and literature of domestic and foreign origin, handles questions related to journeys of the Jesuits to South America, mapping their main routes, emotions and experiences, trying to ascertain what the material support of missionaries was and what kind of dangers they met across the ocean. She attempts to reconstruct the course of missions during ordinary as well as festive days and analyses missionary methods currently applied on the Indian population in South America. She refers to limited opportunities of Jesuits' contacts with the homeland, but also with other missionaries. Finally, she handles the questions of how the purposes of the missions could have been reached and how missionaries managed to survive in tough conditions of the missions, but also after the subsequent expulsion and cancellation of the order. Key words: Missionaries, Jesuits, everydayness, South America
