Eucharist reverence in the work of art of Darina Gladišová
Zoričák, Ján ; Pučalík, Marek (referee)
The thesis entitled Respect for the Eucharist in the work of Darina Gladišová is a contribution to a deeper knowledge of the reasons for the importance of the Eucharist and respect for it in the Catholic Church. The work of contemporary Slovak academic painter Darina Gladišová is characterized by a Christian theme with a dominant accent on the Eucharist. Among the works with the theme of the Eucharist stands out a cycle of six large paintings called Corpus Christi - the Body of Christ, which was created in 2003 - 2010. The cycle is installed in the refectory of the Franciscan Monastery in Bratislava, Slovakia. The thesis presents the above-mentioned images of the Corpus Christi cycle and theologically interprets them through the bibliography of St. John Paul II. and Franciscan springs. The method of interpretation was chosen on the basis of literary sources about the life and work of the painter, but mainly on personal interviews of the rigorous thesis' author with Darina Gladišová, in which he names the mentioned sources of inspiration. Thoughts concerning the Eucharist are the key throughout of the rigorous thesis.

Development of the Preparation of Children for Reception of the Sacrament of Eucharist and the Sacrament of Penance
BRYCHTOVÁ, Kateřina
The dissertation describes development of the preparation of children for reception of the first Communion and the first confession. In particular time periods of our history the church passed its teaching and faith on in a lot of various ways. The first Christians educated the newcomers in catechism. In the Middle Ages begins the development of catechesis and primarily of preaching, which should educate both children and adults. There isn{\crq}t still much time devoted to children and their preparations for reception of the sacraments; children cannot receive the sacrament until they reach an older age. Change in a bestowal of the sacraments is brought by a decree Quam singulari promulgated in 1910 by Pius X. It{\crq}s a decree on the age at which children are to be admitted to first Communion and it still influences the pursuance of preparing the new communicants for the reception of the sacraments. In my work I described, with the help of an available literature, the course of the preparations of the new communicants from the promulgation of the decree until now. I am also stating the methodic materials used by those, who lead those preparations.
