The article draws on the list of separate manuscripts and manuscripts forming part of binders’ volumes coming from the library of the Domažlice Augustinians, a component of the first volume of the Soupis rukopisů Studijní a vědecké knihovny Plzeňského kraje v Plzni [A Compendium of the Manuscripts from the Education and Research Library of the Pilsener Region in Pilsen (Plzeň 2006)]. Since the first and at the same time last description of the library comes from as early as 1950, when the book collection was taken over by the State Education Library in Pilsen, we attempted to study the development of the Augustinian book collection on the basis of indirect sources, such as mainly books of accounts and ownership notes in extant printed books and manuscripts. From the original ca 4,000 volumes, only 272 volumes have been preserved in the Education and Research Library of the Pilsener Region (ERLPR) to this day; two separate manuscripts and 16 manuscripts forming part of binders’ volumes from the 17th-19th centuries have been described in the above-mentioned compendium; two manuscripts that were bound to other manuscripts come from a nearby convent in Pivoň. A noteworthy piece among the literary texts preserved in Prague archives is a manuscript fragment of a Czech play containing a dialogue between two merchants taking place at the Pilsen market, which comes from the second half of the 18th century, or the attempt of the Pivoň Augustinian Bruno Knez to write and even publish the history of his convent from 1753, which may be considered as the first printed monastic monograph from West Bohemia. and Jaromír Linda.
The article reacts to a critical evaluation of the cognitive revolution which Jaroslav Peregrin has presented (The Cognitive Counterrevolution?, Filosofie dnes, 4, 2012, No. 1, pp. 19-35). According to Peregrin the cognitive revolution has thrown open a Pandora’s box of naive mentalistic theories and variations on Cartesian dualism (“magical theories of the mind”), which “do not belong to science, nor even to sensible philosophy”. Although I agree with the rejection of magical theories of the mind, I attempt to show that the cognitive turn in the 50’s and 60’s of the last century is susceptible of a quite different interpretation, according to which cognitive science, as a result of its basic assumptions and methodology, does not imply or propagate any kind of Cartesian dualism, rather it explicitly denies the possibility of such an account of the relation between mind and body., Juraj Franek., and Obsahuje poznámky a bibliografii
Studie Elišky Baťové se zabývá dosud nepříliš hodnocenou koncepcí liturgického roku v duchovních písních od biskupa Jednoty bratrské a teologa Jana Augusty., The goal of the present study is to bring together the questions of hymnological research with the history of the liturgy and homiletics. In the integrated liturgical conception of Jan Augusta as it is known to us thanks to two Viennese manuscripts and a newly processed, unique printed document from the Unity of the Brethren church, these areas cannot be separated, since they mutually support each other to create a whole. The author has therefore dedicated herself to the broader context of the creating of a new arrangement of Biblical readings and songs in the Unity of the Brethren church, regarding which there were disputes from its inception in 1545 until the deaths of Jan Blahoslav and of Jan Augusta in 1572., Eliška Baťová., Rubrika: Studie, and Anglické resumé na s. 43, anglický abstrakt 33.
Discantus and Altus part-books (sign. NM-CMH AZ 84) were made by the later binding of component parts consisting of four prints and five manuscripts from the 1540s through about the 1590s. For the first time, the professional community can familiarize itself with their external description and contents. Those contents consist predominantly of compositions intended for Vespers (Magnificat settings and hymns). Special attention is paid to two Magnificat settings Bohemian Christmas and Easter songs in the discant part. For each of the twelve songs, the oldest known incidences of their melody and text were identified, and transcriptions of the songs are also included. The discant part-book AZ 84 represents an indispensable source for the genesis of some of the songs (Všem věc divná, neslýchaná [To All Something Strange, Unheard-Of], Hory se zelenají [The Hills Turn Green], Plešíc již všecko stvoření [All Creation Now Rejoicing], Šalomúnovy postele šedesáte ostříhalo [Sixty Men around Solomons Bed]), Dagmar Štefancová., Rubrika: Studie, and Anglické resumé na s. 22.
The paper deals with the concept of criminal thinking or attitudes that has received considerable research attention in foreign countries especially because of its proven relationship to antisocial behavior and potential for changing it through elimination of these attitudes (e.g. Blud et al., 2003; Henning, Frueh, 1996; Walters, 2005b). Nevertheless criminal thinking still remains almost undescribed in the Czech Republic. The aim of this study is to introduce to Czech readers its wide theoretical and empirical background and applicability in praxis. The presented study tries at the same time to overcome terminological confusion and opinion discrep ancies connected with this topic and to reach a useful definition of this concept., Petra Faridová., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
This study deals with the heretofore unknown activity of Leoš Janáček at the two main museum institutes in Brno. It asserts that from ca. 1888 until the end of his life, Leoš Janáček was a member of the Brno Museum Association, and it also makes reference to previously unknown sources from scholarly literature to which he had access as a member of the association. A surprising discovery is that the composers participation in the German-Czech Moravian Museum Society from 1900 was connected with the creation of the first collection of Moravian composers manuscripts (1903) and with an attempt to obtain financial support from the Provincial Committee for a printed edition of works by Moravian composers. We thus get a more complete picture of Janáčeks interactions and contacts in the environment of the Czech and German intellectuals who surrounded him and of the composers involvement in professional activities., Jarmila Procházková., Obsahuje seznam literatury, Rubrika: Studie, and Anglické resumé na s. 350.
Previous studies have reported a decreased incidence of delayed graft function after cadaveric transplantation with the use of lidocaine pretreatment of the donor. We evaluated the effects of lidocaine on prolonged cold ischemia and reperfusion injury in a canine model of isolated kidney perfusion (IPK). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the renal function of isolated perfused canine kidneys after 48 h of cold storage with Euro-Collins (EC) solution or EC solution plus lidocaine. Isolated perfused canine kidneys were randomized into four groups which contained six kidneys: I) cold flush with EC solution and immediately reperfused, II) cold flush with EC solution plus lidocaine and immediately reperfused, III) 48 h of cold storage with EC and reperfusion, IV) 48 h of cold storage with EC solution plus lidocaine and reperfusion. The measured renal functions were glomerular filtration rate, urine production, perfusate flow, urinary lactic dehydrogenase (ULDH), Na reabsorptive capacity, and tissue MDA levels. Histological examination was performed after reperfusion. The tubular functions of kidneys preserved with EC solution containing lidocaine were better when compared with the kidneys preserved with EC alone. Tubular injury marker levels (ULDH) in group IV were significantly lower than in group III and lidocaine also reduced lipid peroxidation during reperfusion. This is in agreement with the histological results. The results of the present study can be taken as evidence of the cytoprotective effect of lidocaine, which may therefore be accepted as a useful agent for kidney preservation., N. Erkasap, E.

We have studied the mechanism of Na+ deprivation-induced catecholamine secretion from freshly isolated bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. Na+ deprivation-induced catecholamine secretion depended on free extracellular Ca2+ concentrations and was almost parallel to 45Ca2+ influx into the cells under various experimental conditions. Furthermore, Na+ deprivation-induced 45Ca2+ influx and catecholamine secretion were actually induced by a relative Na+ concentration gradient across the plasma membrane, but not by simple omission of Na+ from the medium. These results indicate that the deprivation of Na+ from the medium changes the relative Na+ gradient across the plasma membrane and results in Ca2+ influx via a reverse mode of Na+-Ca2+ exchange rather than by inducing Ca2+ entry through Ca2+ channels by eliminating the competition between extracellular Na+ and Ca2+., M.

Vývoj výzkumů kognitivních procesů iniciovaný v šedesátých letech XX. století informačním paradigmatem v Americe vedl posléze k rozlišení čtyř základních proudů, a to (1) tzv. klasické kognitivní psychologie, (2) vývojově orientované kognitivní psychologie, (3) kognitivní vědy a (4) konekcionismu. V důsledku této diferenciace mezi proudy kognitivního hnutí se posléze ustavil rozpor uvnitř informačního paradigmatu. Jeho těžištěm je pojetí mentální (též interní, kognitivní) reprezentace a od něj odvozená nebo s ním spjatá stanoviska, zaujímaná k dílčím problémům, jež jsou charakteristická pro jednotlivé výše zmíněné proudy kognitivního hnutí. Spor o reprezentaci, její povahu a modelování je natolik zásadní, že tvoří základní aporii informačního paradigmatu a někteří autoři dokonce hovoří o rozpadu informačního paradigmatu ve dvě rozdílná paradigmata, a to v paradigma reprezentace a paradigma prezentace (B. Shanon, 1993). Ta se uvnitř informačního paradigmatu ustavují. Každé z těchto paradigmat navazuje na specifická filosofická východiska., Miluše Sedláková., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
