Kunčarová, Helena ; Pšenička, Martin (advisor) ; Sarkissian, Alena (referee)
This diploma thesis explores the concept of theatricality as developed by the Swiss theatrologist Stefan Hulfeld. The thesis aims at a presentation of Hulfeld's research which is based on examination of historical documents, his particular focus being the theatricality of the 18. century in Solothurn (Switzerland). In this thesis, his theory is compared to other theatricality theories developed by Rudolf Münz and Andreas Kotte. The more general aim of the presented work is to devise a notion of theatricality which is based on historical- theatrological exploration of historical documents.

Vácha, Jiří ; Royt, Jan (advisor) ; Daniel, Ladislav (referee) ; Martinek, Radek (referee)
v anglickém jazyce The book presents an array of woven patterned fabrics from church treasuries in the territory of the Diocese of České Budějovice. The examples provided originate in the period spanning from the 16th to the 18th century, and they represent only a small selection of the surviving collections. The focal point consists of a magnificent collection of textiles from the 18th century, documenting the development of the individual historical spheres of decors overlapping into corresponding variants of design. The variability of patterns pertaining to this century is unusually high, and it combines a large number of sources of inspiration with roots in exotic overseas countries. The catalogue entries are furnished with brief technological analyses that offer an insight into the textile production of the respective periods and, at the same time, they provide researchers with a deeper understanding of the individual fabrics on display. Although the area of the Diocese of České Budějovice to a certain degree exceeds the boundaries of the Region of South Bohemia, the collections examined were, in their majority, imported from western European countries manufacturing weaving products of world renown. The catalogue outlines the historically significant import of luxury goods reflecting a variety...

The picture of David Hoyer from Jan Kupecký at Leipzig
Vopařilová, Magdaléna ; Zlatohlávek, Martin (advisor) ; Pučalík, Marek (referee)
The thesis focuses on portrait on painting of David Hoyer from baroque artist Jan Kupecky that is placed in Museum der bildenden Künste in Leipzig. Firstly, I will deal with life and work of the author Jan Kupecky. The main focus will be dedicated to the painting from 1711 which depicts Saxon painter David Hoyer with lyra. I will try to unveil more information about life of the depicted man, consequently, I will concentrate on the actual type of portaval style and mention other significant work of the same nature made by the author prior 1711. This actual painting example will allow me to show how the portrait creation was forming not only in life of Jan Kupecky but also in context of whole Europe.
