 Lechmannová, Monika ; Bobková, Lenka (advisor) ; Ledvinka, Václav (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with a noble family of the Kostka of Postupice and outlines its history during 15th century highlighting particular members of the noble family. Since Vilém I. Kostka of Postupice was given an entry by the ceasar Sigmund Luxembourg into an estate of Litomyšl Bishopric, we can follow the growth of the noble family. One of the most striking personalities of the period was Zdeněk III. Kostka of Postupice, who was holding a lot of diplomatic dealings on behalf of the George of Poděbrady. He also became the highest coin-master of the Bohemian kingdom, he was in Royal Council session and participated in Royal Court trials. All of those activities were a reason why he was ennobled. Thanks to Zdeněk III. Kostka of Postupice the Kostka noble family became one of the wealthiest and most powerful Calixtin families in the Bohemian kingrom.
