František Bílek´s work in České Budějovice - art historical characteristics
FILOUS, Štěpán
This bachelor thesis will focus on the work of the sculptor František Bílek (1872-1941) in České Budějovice. Bílek created two monumental sculptural works right in the city - a stone monument to the writer Otakar Mokrý (1919) in today's Na Sadech park and several pieces of sculpture decoration in the interior of the Husův sbor church (1924) on today's Palacký square. Preparatory drawings and sculptures for both works have been preserved in the collections of Aleš South Bohemian Gallery in Hluboká. The aim of the thesis will be primarily a thorough iconographic analysis of Bílek's monumental realizations and also their art-historical analysis, while the author will use the just-mentioned related works in AJG. The author will also focus on the ordering context of the creation of the monument and the church decoration, or the position of both works in Bílek's related work. If it is possible and appropriate, the author will include references to other works in the AJG, which illustrate the iconographic and material breadth of Bílek's work.

The Transformation of the Interpretation of the Historical Meaning of a Figure on Example of the Socio-Historical Conflict about the Role of Marshal Konev in the Course of Czechoslovak History
Stolle, Lucas ; Marková, Alena (advisor) ; Štemberk, Jan (referee)
The aim of our thesis is to map the conflict related to the monument to Marshal Konev, which took place between 2015 and 2020. In 2018, the Prague 6 Municipality provided the monument with explanatory plaques because it was repeatedly damaged by unknown people. The plaques were meant as well to commemorate Konev's controversial post-war career. This act provoked a strong reaction from the Russian Embassy, which began to defend historical role of Marshal Konev. It led to a conflict between Czech and Russian politicians and also to a conflict within the Czech political scene. In our analysis we want to clarify the different interpretations of Marshal Konev's historical role provided by Czech and Russian politicians and Czech historians and journalists. We look at the reactions and arguments of politicians, historians and journalists regarding Konev's historical role and his monument. We also examine the differences between the arguments and their transformation during the conflict. In the end, we try to clarify the reasons for particular interpretations of Marshal Konev's historical role. We use the theoretical concepts of the symbolic centre and collective memory. Our sources are mainly Czech news articles on selected websites.

Typology of the Great War monuments in Prague and its surroundings
Klimt, Šimon ; Czumalo, Vladimír (advisor) ; Pech, Milan (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with a general typology of World war I memorial sites located in the urban area of Hlavní město Praha. It aims to produce a comprehensive framework of the memorials erected. Field research in the form of visiting majority of the sites and procuring their photographical documentation was a key part of the thesis. An effort to define memorial sites in terms of places of memory as well as an examination of the influence the great war had on contemporary sculpture within the new Czechoslovak state had been made before the typology itself. The area for data collection does not reflect the contemporary "Great Prague" of 1922, whose inception marks the erection of many of the memorial sites in favour of the present day Prague cadastral territory. The reason for such decision being the possibility of differences in motifs between the integral parts of then Prague and surrounding villages which were to be integrated later. The typology consists of several categories which classify the memorial based on their formal architectonic and sculptural properties or their ideological background, respectively. A single chapter also examines the memorials of Prague that had been irreversably destroyed by subsequent regimes. Each memorial is described in terms of its year of origin, author...

Iconography of the historical regions in the bohemian visual art from 17th to 19th century
DRDÁKOVÁ, Kateřina
This bachelor thesis is focused on Czech historical regions from the 17th to the 19th century. Mostly on their pictures, which are appearing in the Czech art. The thesis focuses, for example, on a graphic sheet of the university thesis by Antonín Martin Lublinský. And in particular on the thesis of Jan Felix of Brandenstein, which illustrates the fifteen Czech regions paying tribute to Archbishop Jan Bedřich of Wallenstein. From the graphic works I carry on with the allegorical Map of Bohemia in the shape of a rose, which was used as an illustration for the book The Beauty and Wealth of the Czech Lands by Bohuslav Balbín. The next part of this work will lead to the 19th century to the creation of monuments, precisely on the monument of Franz I., also known as the Kranner's fountain. Finally the work focuses on the decoration of the original stage curtain in the National Theater by František Ženíšek. I compare the regions within their illustrations and meaning. I will emphasize especially on the individual shifts that occurred in the context of the ruling Habsburg dynasty, Czech baroque patriotism and national revival.
