Population in the town of Telč in 18th century, based on sources of town and cadastral provenance
MAREČEK, Jakub
This diploma thesis deals with population in the town of Telč in 18th century, based on sources of town and cadastral provenance. The issue is of particular interest as it has not been researched in greater detail yet. At first, the thesis provides an introduction to the extant literature covering the history of Telč, assessing the authors' approach, what historical epoch they consider most prosperous and their perspective of the town in 18th century. Chapter II addresses sources of town and cadastral provenance, thus introducing and evaluating the sources the thesis is based on. Chapter III addresses the regulated municipal authority in Telč. Chapter IV provides an insight into the development of town population in the Bohemian lands in 17th and 18th centuries, which enables contextualizing Telč within the development. Chapter V is dedicated to the town itself, focusing on its history in the relevant period, the town's inhabitants, external description, the Inner Town and eventually, the social pattern of the inhabitants. The social pattern is described in a detailed analysis of three houses located on the town square and their owners. In the end I will describe property structure of the town councillors who were serving in office in 1762, 1766, 1768 and 1770.

The church administration in the Josephian period and the influence of the Patent of Toleration on the Czech rural area
BEČVÁŘ, Stanislav
The bachelor thesis which is focused on the period with the focal point in the year 1781 follows up mainly the memoirs of burghers and priests of Pelhřimov in the pre-toleration and the early toleration period enriched with the religious sources and sources of the town council. The crucial aim of this thesis is to chart the influence of the Patent of Toleration and the reaction to its issue. The first chapter deals with the space in the triangle defined with the terms: religion, state and church. On the basis of the works by Zdeněk R. Nešpor, Eva Melmuková, Rudolf Zubera , Bohumil Zlámal and others I try to fill in this space with the mosaic of the chosen aspects of the human being and to look into the lives which are noted in the memoirs of the burgers of Pelhřimov, namely Filip Ignác Dremsa and Antonín Štěpán, the vicar Vincenc Josef Rubricius, the dean Vojtěch Holý and the pastor Jan Szalatnay from Moraveč. This is the main interest of the second chapter. Their issued memoirs became the basis source for this bachelor thesis, futhermore, the archives of the Office of Vicar in Pelhřimov, the Parish Office Nová Cerekev and the Archive of the town Pelhřimov saved in the State Districtual Archive Pelhřimov. These sources, together with the issued works concerning this topic, enabled me to look at the Patent of Toleration from a different point of view and the perception of it by the ordinary people at the turn of the 18th and 19th century.
