Textual interpretation of the Song of Roland
Kolářová, Monika ; Jančík, Jiří (advisor) ; Kalfiřtová, Eva (referee)
This MA thesis deals with the text analysis of the Song of Roland. The text analysis focuses in detail on the formal, content, narrative and symbolic aspects of the Song of Roland. All those features are in the context of the literary and historical frame. The Song of Roland is one of the oldest literary pieces of French literature. It is the most famous heroic song belonging to the "Chanson de geste" and it was created in the 11th century. The main characters of the heroic poem are Charles the great, his nephew Roland, loyal friend Olivier, traitor Galeon and pagan king Marsil. The Song of Roland explores not only the family and friend relations, but the important topics are also betrayal and desire for fortune and glory. The Song deals with the matter of faith being asserted in the way which is typical for the middle ages. The story, which takes part in Spain, where the French have been besieging the pagan fort of Zaragoza for seven years, is very interesting from the historical aspects, but were more interested in the narrative - textual aspects, in which we tried to explore the relationships between the narrators. We focused on individual speeches, who speaks to whom and in which way. We asked ourselves three questions, which we have gradually answered. For the need of an analysis of individual speech...

Interpretation of the Folk Religiosity: From Enlightened "Superstition" to Postmodern "Spirituality"
Veith, Daniel ; Šalanda, Bohuslav (advisor) ; Pargač, Jan (referee)
This work represents various approaches to the phenomenon of folk religiosity, both from the perspective of ethnology and related humanities as well. Folk religiosity is here understood within the meaning of folk version of official religious ideas. Ever since the time of the Reformation in the 16th century, there were efforts to make a discipline out of the folk religiosity. Then the Age of Enlightenment contributed to the process of "disenchantment of the world" (Max Weber). Results of these processes are illustrated, among other things, in the example of handwritten prayer books and the phenomenon of folk chronicleship. The Enlightenment condemnation of folk "superstitions" in the name of racionality is put into context of postmodern interest in the so-called "Celtic Spirituality". Contemporary Celtic Spirituality is a specific spiritual power, which refers to numerous elements from traditional folk religiosity circuit. The analysis of the second life of folk religiosity shows to the creative reinterpretation, which emphasizes the perception of the world as the creation.

Roman empire and the christianity - from the persecution to the state religion
Činátl, Jiří ; Lukeš, Jiří (advisor) ; Říhová, Ladislava (referee)
This diploma thesis is devoted to the situation of Christians living in the Roman Empire in the first four centuries AD. Every new religion has to face a number of problems in its beginnings, its misunderstanding and its position in society must be gradually enforced. However, the very beginnings of Christianity are not easy to grasp, since so many sources have not been preserved to this day. Likewise, many events are perceived through Christian optics and thus interpreted unilaterally. These are, above all, martyrological texts that have been extensively modified over time and authenticity is now relatively difficult. This diploma thesis is divided into several chapters, while in the first one I try to describe the Roman society and the Roman religion with which the Christian faith was confronted. Further chapters and chapters are devoted to the rise and spread of Christianity, the person of Jesus Christ, and the Church Fathers who report to us about the first centuries of Christian faith. The most extensive part of this diploma thesis is devoted to the main topic of persecution of Christians in the first four centuries AD. To date the individual stages of the persecution of Christians, I will help them by dividing them according to G.E.M. de Ste. Croixe. Chapters to describe the three stages of...

Dance of Witches: Analysis of selected Aspects of Contemporary Magic
Tesárek, Jan ; Spalová, Barbora (advisor) ; Fiala, Šimon (referee)
This thesis deals with research of magic in contemporary Czech society. Although magic in contemporary society is practiced across different religious currents, this research has shown that it is possible to analytically grasp it through its epistemological dimension. In this sense, magic is a set of specific ways of knowing that produce a particular knowledge of the world. These are the epistemic processes: clairvoyance, ritual visions, oracles and interpretation of physical sensations. These processes have a symbolic nature and they are structured through symbolic meanings, which are based on spiritual ground of adept's practising of magic. Acquired "magical" knowledge is then negotiated as real and rational through different narrative strategies: through science legitimization, legitimization effect and through psychological reductionism. This knowledge also affects the social world and identity in the lives of informants of my research. The magic in them becomes a commission that is accepted or rejected. However it creates a specific network of relationships with human and non-human actors around the informant which forms his identity.
