Crematorium
Hančík, Dominik ; Kacálková, Lenka (referee) ; Kacálek, Petr (advisor)
The Master´s thesis deals with the development of project documentation for the crematorium in the Mařatice district near Uherské Hradiště. The new building is located in the eastern part of Mařatice and is designed in a locality that, by its nature, represents areas for the construction of public cemeteries and related services. The proposed new crematorium building will be a free-standing, partly two-storey and partly basement building. The object will fulfill the requirements for a sacred building. The building is based on foundation belts made of plain concrete locally supplemented with foundation footings in place of supporting reinforced concrete columns. The building is divided into three basic sections, which are divided according to their function into the section associated with performing the last farewell, the section used for cremation and the + section. The new building is designed as a partly two-storey and partly basement building with a dominant projecting part, which has the task of imagining a long path dividing two different worlds. Part of the partial basement is designed with regard to the possibility of creating separate parking spaces for crematorium employees. The first above-ground floor is barely a part of the entire new building, and all traffic is designed on this level. The partial second above-ground floor is situated in SECTION A – i.e. in the premises used for holding the last farewells. This floor is designed with the growing trend of accompanying these devotional acts with a live band. Structurally, the object is designed as a classic brick building on the 1st floor level - partially the sub-basement is structurally formed by fittings of lost formwork. The ceiling structure will be made in combination as a heavy monolithic reinforced concrete ceiling slab supplemented with prestressed Spiroll ceiling panels. The roof structure of the entire building is solved with the help of extensive flat roofs in several height levels. These structures are designed with a slope of 3%. The exterior facade of the proposed new building will be made of three different materials. The individual type of facade materials used depends on the individual sections of the new building. The first type of facade is solved by a type of ventilated structure covered with wooden cladding of the Rhombus species from larch wood. The second type of facade is again chosen as a ventilated structure with cladding made of large-format sheet metal templates with the character of folded sheet metal. The third type of facade is then covered with colored pasty silicate plaster in white.

The Development of Funeral Practices in the Context of the Evolution of Ideological framework of the Czechoslovak(Hussite) Church.
Ferčík, Richard ; Vogel, Jiří (advisor) ; Procházka, Pavel (referee) ; Skoblík, Jiří (referee)
10 Abstract The Development of Funeral Practices in the Context of the Evolution of Ideological framework of the Czechoslovak (Hussite) Church. Author: Mgr. Richard Ferčík Our work resulted in finding that since the very beginning of its existence, the Czechoslovak (Hussite) Church approached the question of funeral rituals as a practical, pastoral question, not academic and theoretical. The Czechoslovak Church became a pioneer and promoter of cremation and operator of the most extensive network of columbaries in Czechoslovakia. The major moment of Czechoslovak (Hussite) Church particulars was the shift from the mechanical-magical concept of funeral in popular Catholicism, by which it tried to confront with a purified and understandable ritual based on the gospel and the desire to enculturate the gospel and translate it into a "live" language. Judging by the theological view of death and funeral, the basis from which it stemmed is quite clear - catholic modernism and liberal democratic thinking. In the first generation of Czechoslovak (Hussite) Church theologians we could observe significant "scholastic" fundament. Theological consideration was never priority in these matters, but the church only dealt with it when solving complex tasks. It was not until the middle of 1940s, when the Copernical Revolution...

The Development of Funeral Practices in the Context of the Evolution of Ideological framework of the Czechoslovak(Hussite) Church.
Ferčík, Richard ; Vogel, Jiří (advisor)
Anotation This paper is aimed at describing the development of funeral practices of the Czechoslovak (Hussite) Church - CČS(H). In order to achieve better understanding of the particulars of the CČS(H) we put it the period and geographical context in which it was formed. This paper explores the period approach the society and the CČS(H) had towards cremation. It is followed by the CČS(H)'s practices and its theological and pastoral fundaments and explores also the theological grounds of the different periods and CČS(H) theologians. We base our scrutiny on the thesis that the CČS(H)'s approach towards funerals was not static and it underwent a certain evolution in terms of perceiving death and functions of funeral rituals as well as in the development of the actual form of funeral rituals, particularly with regards to the theological beliefs of the CČS(H) theologians and theological trends inside the church. We consider these dynamics particularly significant, especially with respect to the usual persistence of these approaches. We believe that this dynamic development was and is inherent to the CČS(H) and it was not directly influenced by actions of other denominations, if only with regards to the persistence of its form and content of its funeral rituals. In our opinion, the CČS(H) is very specific in this...

Main objective of this thesis is the building of Pardubice crematorium, which is an example of national architect style, so-called Rondocubism, created by the architect Pavel Janák. First part is dedicated to the theoretical fundaments derived from the former pre-war style of kubismus. In the second part these fundaments are explained on the submitted drawing proposals for the structure of Pardubice crematorium dating from the year 1919. Then the analysis of these proposals from Janak's first drafts till the final appearance of Pardubice crematorium can be seen as the main contribution of this work. Furthermore author adds both the chapter documenting the opinion changes relating to this building and the short outlook on the topic of cremation which gives reader a better understanding of period social context.

Inheritance proceedings with a focus on selected issues expenditure in legal theory and practice
Kroupová, Michaela ; Pikola, Pavel (advisor) ; Jaromír, Jaromír (referee)
This thesis deals with the issue of inheritance procedure, and is focused on selected issues of expenses in legal theory and practice. The most notable changes in inheritance law became effective with the new Civil Code on January 1st 2014. A very important amendment to the funeral services law is in the process of approval at the moment.
Death is an integral part of everyone´s life. Everyone will die one day, we should think about the last farewell. Inheritance procedure is a very extensive and complex process. In case there is no one willing to prepare the funeral, the so called "social funeral" is organized by the municipality where the person died. The body is usually cremated and placed at the nearest appointed place. In some cases the municipality keeps the urns
at the office in order to save costs. The funeral is organized at the lowest cost possible.
The analytical part is focused on the "social funerals" and related expenses in specified cities of the Czech republic - Český Krumluv, Říčany and Šternberk. Afterwards, the number and costs of social funerals in selected districts of Prague is analyzed. Unfortunately not in all
of them, because some districts did not provide the data. The social funeral is not only for the case when the bereaved do not have the means, but also for the case when the family refuses to prepare the funeral for other reasons. One other option for people without financial resources could be self-organized funeral - without the assistance of a funeral service. Self-organized funerals are a very controversial topic. The funeral services of course refuse them, because it would reduce their business opportunities.

On Changes In The Ways of Burial In The Czech Republic In The Last Decades
KADLECOVÁ, Hana
The work deals with changes in the ways of burial in the Czech Republic in the last decades. It has two parts - practical and theoretical. The theoretical part summarizes the evolution in the sphere of burial since the First Republic to the present days (this part contains interviews with witnesses). It leads to the conclusion, any changes have happened, mainly in the attitudes towards burial rituals. Two basic ways of burial (into the ground, cremation) have changed only a little. The new matter are burials without ceremony. The practical part contains questionnaire research. Respondents (priests, deacons and employees of the undertaker's and crematories) made answers about changes in attitudes towards death and burial in the last years. At the end of the work the results of the theoretical part are confronted with the results of the questionnaire research. Both parts of the work (the theoretical as well as the practical) confirm the main changes in a sphere of burial are in attitudes of people. Respondents crittically refer to state of contemporary morale, a decline of respect to the deceased and taboo of the death.
