Čižmáriková, Monika ; NĚMEČKOVÁ, Elvíra (advisor) ; GREMLICOVÁ, Dorota (referee)
This thesis is focused on and is summarizing events in ballet of the National Theatre in Prague in 1970's and 1980's, specifically between 1969 and 1989. It's dedicated to personalities on positions as directors of ballets - Jiří Němeček, Emerich Gabzdyl and Miroslav Kůra, who, besides managing the ballet, worked as choreographers too. There were also other choreographers in the theatre aside from the above mentioned, namely Jiří Blažek, Antonín Landa, Vlastimil Jílek, or Daniel Wiesner. I describe individual seasons and specific works, which were introduced in premiere. Furthermore in my thesis I deal with extraordinary generation of interprets who were performing here, for example Michaela Černá, Marta Drottnerová, Vlastimil Harapes, Jan Kadlec, Lubomír Kafka, Jaromír Petřík, Michaela Vítková, Hana Vláčilová, Aneta Voleská, Pavel Ždichynec and many others. I put everything in the context of the political era known as „normalization“. Foreign groups and individuals, who gave guest performances in the theatre are also described. My primary sources of information were mainly: “Archiv Národního divadla” (the National Theatre's archive), “Ročenky Národního divadla” (the National Theatre’s yearbooks) and contemporary periodical „Taneční listy” (Letters of dance), from which I used mainly critiques and reviews for premieres. Another valuable source were personal testimonies of artists, who performed in the National Theatre at that time: Mahulena Křenková, Jiří Němeček ml., Astrid Štúrová, Hana Vláčilová and Daniel Wiesner.

This diploma thesis deals with mapping of history of the ballet ensemble of F. X. Šalda Theatre since the end of the Second World War till present. Considerable attention is paid to the most significant artistic directors, choreographers, and ballet performances, most importantly to the life and works of Jarmila Jarošová, a principal dancer with that ensemble. Firstly, the origin of Czech theater in Liberec is put into its broader historical and political context. Also, the Czech-German coexistence issue is mentioned as well as the brief development of German theatre in that region. A list of both artistic directors and ballet performances since the first Czech theatrical season in Liberec till present is an inseparateble part of the thesis.
