New synagogue Jihlava
Ernestová, Eva ; Velek, Jan (referee) ; Dulenčín, Juraj (advisor)
The diploma thesis focuses on the design of a new synagogue in Jihlava, and other objects for the Jewish community. These are administrative building, restaurant and a museum. The area where we work is large and it is therefore important to solve the area as well as urbanistically. The diploma project solves a separate building of the synagogue, an administrative building with a courtyard for the Jewish community, a separate restaurant place in tower moat, and two buildings located in the gap of an existing building. One of these objects is used for the Jewish culture museum, the second is polyfunctional. Furthermore, the park areas and underground parking is being solved.

Hanousková, Jana ; Nosek, Bedřich (advisor) ; Holubová, Markéta (referee)
89 7. RESUMÉ The thesis is focused on the life of Jewish community in Prague, on the background of post-Holocaust and post-communist Europe. In the first part, the reader is introduced into the historical and sociological views on Jewish identity, with an emphasis on Central Europe and Prague in particular. The main part of the thesis is divided in separate chapters, each dedicated to one of the contemporary Jewish congregations in Prague. A special attention is given to the Jewish Community of Prague (Kehila Prag, or ŽOP). The other congregations analyzed in the thesis are Chabad Prague (part of Hasidic movement Chabad Lubavitch), Bejt Simcha and Jewish Liberal Union (both liberal/progressive), Bejt Praha and Masorti Prague (both conservative). Since the current situation of the communities has been poorly covered in relevant literature, our main sources of knowledge have been the internet pages of individual congregations, legal documents (statutes, articles of association), and periodicals issued by some of the communities. The question "Who is a Jew" is central in searching for the Jewish identities. The answers vary across the congregations (according to their nature - orthodox, conservative, liberal), with ŽOP being the most problematic. The orthodox Kehila Prag has founded its membership policies on...
