William I, Margrave of Meissen, with Luxembourgs or against them.
Nemravová, Lenka ; Bobková, Lenka (advisor) ; Holá, Mlada (referee)
This thesis deals with the politics of the Margrave of Meissen, William I the one-eyed (1343-1407), towards the Kingdom of Bohemia and his relationship to the ruling dynasty of the House of Luxemburg. Particular attention is paid to his marriage to Elizabeth of Luxembourg (Elizabeth of Moravia), his stays at the imperial court of Charles IV and subsequently his own expansive politics towards Wenceslaus IV. Emphasis is also given to his relationships to the other members of the House of Luxembourg, especially Margrave Jobst of Moravia. It also reflects upon the personality of Margravine Elizabeth (1355-1400), who has so far been rather overlooked in historiography. The thesis is based primarily on sources of a diplomatic nature and of Czech and Meissen provenance, but also draws upon records from chronicles and monastic annals. This thesis is also a contribution to the assessment of the politics of Wenceslaus IV and the nature of relationships between members of the House of Luxembourg. Keywords: William I of Meissen, Elizabeth of Luxembourg (Elizabeth of Moravia), House of Luxembourg, House of Wettin, Margravate of Meissen, Brandenburg, marriage contract

"Sie sind Aristokratin?" Noble women in 20th century on example of Sternberg family
NEMRAVOVÁ, Lenka
The Diploma thesis aims at lives of the aristocratic women in the 20th century. The focus is placed on their perception of the political events of the period and changes of their role both within family and society. This issue is analyzed with help of the example of three female aristocrats who married into the old Czech family of the Sternbergs, more specifically, three ladies belonging to three different generations Karolína Sternberg, b. Thurn-Valsassina-Como-Vercelli (1863-1944), Kunhuta Sternberg, b. Mensdorff-Pouilly (1899-1989), and Alžběta Sternberg, b. Hrubá z Gelenj (*1929). The description of their lifetimes follows after the more theoretical part dealing in general with the position of women in the 20th century as well as with a brief history of the Sternberg family. The environment in which the ladies grew up is taken into account, too. Apart from the private written documents, the thesis is also based on some interviews with several living members of the family. The concluding part comprises a comparison of the ladies´ lives towards each other and towards the non-aristocratic society.
