Subsequently, there is a brief description of the dominion according to the period land registers, namely Berní rula and Teresian Land Registry. The history of the dominion and its nobility is also mentioned. The following part of this thesis aims at position of the orphans in the field of law. The problematics describes in detail e.g. definition of the term orphan, or guaranteeing their upbringing and management of their inherited property. This part is also devoted to the comparison of the Roman legal norms with the Czech urban and land law. The main part of the thesis offers the view on the orphan's problematics and their situation according to the extant orphan's registers. Based on their analysis, the author provides brief overview of the several orphans' living data and discloses their lives. Simultaneously, the author will concentrate on the examined orphan's registers as a specific type of an official document.

Prague Care of Orphans and Abandoned Children in the First Half of the 20th Century
Fremrová, Květa ; Čechurová, Jana (advisor) ; Rákosník, Jakub (referee)
The master thesis investigates the care of orphans and abandoned children paying special attention to how the care was executed in Prague in the 1st half of the 20th century. First, the thesis describes the general development of care of these children and of legislation. It then focuses on Prague social care of children. The orphans and abandoned children could be provided either in foster families (this form of care was more frequent) or in orphanages. Prague children were often placed outside of Prague to the so called family colonies, where the foster families were concentrated and where it was easier to control the quality of care those children attained in foster families. The other option was care in orphanages. Those could be established by the city, by the church or by an independent charity association. For each option I chose one Prague orphanage as an example. I also tried to describe the everyday life in these institutions. The last chapter focuses on the period view on advantages and disadvantages of both forms of care. Keywords: orphans, abandoned children, social care, Prague, children's homes, foster care, family colonies
