Morongová, Lenka ; Maar, Radek (referee) ; Boleslavská, Yvona (advisor)
The topic of the diploma thesis was to develop a proposal for the restoration of the Porta Coeli complex in the village of Předklášteří near Tišnov. The complex is a very valuable place dominating the whole village and is also the only functioning female Cistercian monastery in the Czech Republic. The complex contains many buildings, some of which are used for religious purposes or have a cultural social function, but some buildings are unused or even decaying. Based on the analyses there were selected some buildings for processing. There is granary, sheepfold, farm building, II. quadrature and cider house. All the buildings were processed in the winter semester, for my thesis I chose a granary, sheepfold and a new building located near the sheepfold. The aim of my proposal was to create a place for social and cultural events.

Beneš, Pavel ; Royt, Jan (advisor) ; Biegel, Richard (referee)
The present thesis focuses at analysing the development of the Cistercian monastery in Plasy during the Baroque period, as well the monastery festivities, which belonged among important events of the monastery's everyday life, being an inseparable part of routine within the renewed monastery structure and new sacral foundations. The thesis is structured into five chapters, each analysing a particular part of the present topic. The first chapter maps the spiritual and social development of the Cistercian Order and its activities in the Czech Lands, and describes the specifics of the Order liturgy. The adoration of Our Lady has been an inseparable part of the Cistercian devotion and, as such, has become the topic of one of the chapters of the present thesis. Plasy monastery's abbots, the elected superiors of the order, were closely tied to the renewal of the monastery, applying their artistic ambitions to the reconstruction. The major focus of the whole thesis is set on the linkage of primary sources to the individual aspects of life of the Order, such as the Order liturgy, the issue of the foundation stones, or the apotheosis of the newly built structures by Giovanni Battista Santini-Aichel. The concluding chapter summarizes and evaluates the outcomes of the thesis. The present theses could not have...

Cistercian and Benedictine Sign Language in the Middle Ages
Těšínská Lomičková, Radka ; Kuthan, Jiří (advisor) ; Čechura, Jaroslav (referee) ; Jarošová, Markéta (referee)
Radka Těšínská Lomičková: Cistercian and Benedictine Sign Language in the Middle Age Sign language is an important communication phenomenon that has existed for a thousand years. In medieval monasteries signs were used to enable simple communication of messages when rules of silence forbade monks from speaking. This thesis concentrates on a study of sign language communication in Benedictine and Cistercian monasteries during the Middle Ages. In doing so it describes the history of sign language in Europe between the 10th and 15th centuries. Furthermore it shows that sign language was not only used in the center of the order but in the Czech Republic as well. This thesis provides a detailed discussion of sign lexicons which are similar to a monolingual dictionary and are the basic and central source of information about each language. Lexicons contain words and short descriptions of how to make each hand sign. A careful analysis of one particular sign lexicon, called Siquis (which was used in Central Europe in the 15th century), reveals new information about daily life in medieval monasteries. The primary focus of the Siquis lexicon was liturgy, food and drink, utensils, persons, and activities. This thesis concentrates on both singular words and on the description of the signs in the lexicons....
