The Beginnings of Modern Glass Industry in Northwestern Bohemia, and Glaverbel Czech a.s. an Exporter of Flat Glass to the Countries of the European Union
HRABÁKOVÁ, Veronika
The aim of my bachelor thesis is to create a well-arranged summary of the beginnings of the modern glass industry mainly in the Nortwestern Bohemia and to introduce Glaverbel Czech a.s. In my thesis I will describe the absolute beginning of glass industry, introduce the existing as well as the already ceased glass works in Northwestern Bohemia (mainly around the city of Teplice) and will present chosen examples of international cooperation in the area of flat glass production, e.g. France, Belgium, Great Britain, Japan. The most important part of this thesis will be the introduction of Glaverbel Czech a.s., its history, present and future development, glass types, visions and the position on EU markets, in which Glaverbel Czech a.s. exports its products.

Interdisciplinary research of medieval sacral architecture
Derner, Kryštof ; Havrlant, Jaroslav ; Křivánek, Roman ; Kuljavceva Hlavová, Jana ; Lissek, Petr ; Peksa, Vojtěch ; Skopec, Jaroslav ; Václavík, František R. ; Witan, Joanna ; Zeman, Václav
The methodology is divided into three basic areas of the cognitive process of sacral architecture, which differ according to the nature of the studied sources. I. Problems of knowledge of sacral architecture on the basis of written, cartographic and pictorial sources. II. Sacral architecture in terms of material sources of archaeological nature (artifacts, ecofacts and their finds). III. Sacral architecture on the basis of material sources of a building nature, examined by a building historical survey. These areas are accompanied by subchapters devoted to other methods, other cognitive and documentation processes. A necessary part are also small excursion chapters, in which specific examples from research practice are described.

Ant succession in post mining sites
Hovorková, Marie ; Frouz, Jan (advisor) ; Mudrák, Ondřej (referee)
Succession is often studied by using a chronosequence. When using a chronosequence we study a set of sites with different ages at the same time and by comparing them we conclude what kind of changes occurred during time (space for time substitution). Only a few studies however compare how results obtained by using a chronosequence differ from those obtained by long-term studies. In my theses I repeated a study that investigated succession of ant communities on brown coal mining spoil dumps in Sokolov district after 19 years. There are chronosequences of two types of sites (spontaneous succession and recultivation) in Sokolov coal mining district. By repeating the original study I could compare changes that occurred du- ring time with changes along a chronosequnce. Relationship between occurrence of ant groups with different ecological requirements and age of site was also investigated. RDA model and variation partitioning were used to find out statistical significance between sites and their age. An increase in number of species was recorded on the spoil dumps. 22 ant species were found in the year 2020, from which 5 species were new on the dumps. All the new species are specialists, two of them are dendrophilous. A statistically significant increase in abundance of forest species with site age was...

The beginning of family with half-moon in the coat of arms. Knights of Vřesovice in the late Middle Ages
Boukal, Jan ; Zilynská, Blanka (advisor) ; Bobková, Lenka (referee)
The theme of this thesis is history of the knights (later lords) of Vřesovice in the late Middle Ages. The work deals mainly with political and economic role of the family members in the late medieval Bohemia, with special attention to the hussite captain Jakoubek of Vřesovice, who was mainly responisible for family rise. Furthermore, this work tries to answer the question, what happened to the family of Vřesovice since Jakoubek's death until the late Middle Ages, because during the 16th century, knights of Vřesovice belonged to the most powerful aristocratic families in Bohemia. Family members from the times of king George and Jagellonian rulers were not yet reflected by many historians. Fates of individual family members are assessed and placed into historical context. The work deals with property relations of knights of Vřesovice and manifestations of their aristocratic representation. As a whole, the work probes into political, economic, cultural and social life in late medieval northwest Bohemia. Key words: Jakoubek of Vřesovice, gentry, nordwest Bohemia, late Middle ages, 15.-16. century, castles, heraldy
