Ancient Greeks in Gaul
Patočka, Petr ; Kalfiřtová, Eva (advisor) ; Listíková, Renáta (referee)
The objective of the thesis is to briefly map the history of the French territory during the periods of relations with ancient Greece. Most of this work is dedicated to the South and South-East of France (in French known as the Midi), as the Mediterranean coastline of today's France was the main area to be colonized by the ancient Greeks. The first chapter introduces the prehistoric inhabitants of France before making contact with ancient Greece. The thesis focuses on the period which begins with the Grecian colonisation of southern Gaul and ends with its conquest by ancient Rome. Later development of the Midi is outlined in the final chapter. The topic of the history of France in antiquity was subject to many studies in the twentieth century, however, most of them have been forgotten. Therefore, I would like to "revive" some of these studies in my thesis. Keywords - France, antiquity, ancient Greece, Phocaea, Massalia

The theoretical part of the thesis provides the reader with a brief overview concerning the authors with a specific focus on the historical circumstances in which the works were written, and which influenced the content of the works. Second part of the theoretical section focuses on the historical and socio-cultural context in which the plots of the individual works take place. The last theoretical section discusses the position of women in the respective societies. The practical part subsequently presents illustration of the discussed...
