Typology of the Great War monuments in Prague and its surroundings
Klimt, Šimon ; Czumalo, Vladimír (advisor) ; Pech, Milan (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with a general typology of World war I memorial sites located in the urban area of Hlavní město Praha. It aims to produce a comprehensive framework of the memorials erected. Field research in the form of visiting majority of the sites and procuring their photographical documentation was a key part of the thesis. An effort to define memorial sites in terms of places of memory as well as an examination of the influence the great war had on contemporary sculpture within the new Czechoslovak state had been made before the typology itself. The area for data collection does not reflect the contemporary "Great Prague" of 1922, whose inception marks the erection of many of the memorial sites in favour of the present day Prague cadastral territory. The reason for such decision being the possibility of differences in motifs between the integral parts of then Prague and surrounding villages which were to be integrated later.

Grave, Tombstone, Graveyard. The Range of Motifs of the Czech Painting of the 19th Century
Kučerová, Anežka ; Prahl, Roman (advisor) ; Konečný, Lubomír (referee)
(in English) This thesis called Grave, Tombstone, Graveyard. The Range of Motifs of the Czech Painting of the 19th Century is based on the analysis of paintings, drawings and graphics made by Czech authors throughout the 19th century. Artists worked with funeral motifs in different ways and these will be presented in different case studies. Some painters were fascinated by these subjects and they turned their attention to them systematically and repeatedly throughout their career. Other artists worked with funeral motifs rarely, although significantly. Artists integrated motifs of graves, monuments and cemeteries to their pieces of art for different purposes; this was connected with the interest of Romanticism in aesthetic anomalies and mystery, with their personal experience and feelings. Artists were also interested in genre scenes that were situated in cemeteries. Funeral motifs can be found in illustrated journals as well. Their aim was to document the specific place and as to symbolically express the finality of the life. The pieces of art will be presented in the context of the burial rites and literature of the 19th century. This phenomenon was also reflected by foreign artists, some of them will be also mentioned in the thesis as an analogy to the Czech works.

KÜMMELOVÁ, Magda
This work deals with possibilities of psychosocial assistance to parents in perinatal loss. The introduction is a short treatise on the subject of death, followed by the topic of stillborn children regarded from the viewpoint of of human dignity, and an insight into the theory of social work and the role of the (psycho) social worker. The problem of burnout syndrome in the helping professions is also mentioned. Statistics in terms of perinatal deaths from the period between 2013 to 2015 are briefly presented as well as definitions or explanations of certain terms used in the work. The subsequent chapters describe the situation of mothers before and after finding out about the child's death. It is followed by a detailed introduction of criteria for the research conducted both by the qualitative and quantitative form and is supplemented by casuistry. Everything is summarised and put into context in the ensuing discussion, and more generally summarised in the conclusion of the whole work which demonstrated the need for expert-recommended possibilities of psychosocial assistance to parents in perinatal loss (naming the child, physical contact of parents with the child, getting of objects commemorating the child, funeral - farewell to the child, information about the burial site of the child). The work also pointed out the appropriateness of including a psychosocial worker in the multidisciplinary team in healthcare facilities. The contribution of this work is the possibility of its practical use as an aid in healthcare facilities where perinatal deaths occur.
