Roman History in the Time of Principate in Czech Secondary Schools
Nováková, Miroslava ; Kepartová, Jana (advisor) ; Pinkas, Jaroslav (referee)
The main aim of this dissertation is to compare current history textbooks by using modern educative methods for learning history. Furthermore, it examines the feasibility of these methods for elementary school students and the first year of secondary school. The comparison was conducted based on the content and didactics of the textbooks and to tackle the development of the historical and critical thinking of the students. Secondary, it highlights the topics that are given the most space in the textbooks. Due to the complexity of the subject, the paper also contains the analysis of the textbooks used until 1989. The paper also contains the analysis of the Roman emperors from the principate, who finds their reflection on the textbooks. Analysis is based on the textbooks and the findings of the specialised literature. The dissertation primarily uses the methods of analysis of primary and secondary historical sources such as scholarly books and articles. I have also compared the textbooks, conducted a questionnaire. Lastly, I've created a thematic plan following the roman principate. By using these methods, I have concluded that the majority of the current textbooks aim to stimulate the development of the students. They are also crucial for the understanding of the past and the present world.

Mrázek, Vít ; Sarkissian, Alena (advisor) ; Pšenička, Martin (referee)
The dissertation is trying to form basic rules for interpretational possibilities of an ancient chorus in the process of the Czech theatre based on the detailed analysis of chosen productions in Sophocles tragedy Oidipus Tyrannus from the end of 19th century to the present day. The analysis follows the transformations of the chorus from the original vision of the old men that prevailed in the first half of the 20th century over the image of ancient people common in the fifties of the last century to metaphorical transformation of the chorus brought up by some stage conceptions in the beginning of 21st century.
