The article is a continuation of the author’s paper given at the professional conference on historical collections in Olomouc in 2013, which was published in the proceedings of the conference, Bibliotheca Antiqua.1 The author has corrected and expanded some of the data on the life story of Count Pötting on the basis of information from Pötting’s handwritten Diary from 1664-1674 (Diario del conde de Pötting, embajador del Sacro Imperio en Madrid). She provides an overview of the books that are known to have formed part of Pötting’s book collection (26 manuscripts, mostly codices comprising more units, and 46 printed books from the 16th and 17th centuries have been recorded as yet)., Jaroslava Kašparová., and Článek je pokračováním příspěvku předneseného na konferenci k historickým fondům v Olomouci v roce 2013, jehož písemná podoba vyšla ve sborníku Bibliotheca Antiqua.
This study focuses on marches in 19th century Serbian salon music for piano composed by Czech musicians. It deals in particular with piano arrangements of orchestral works. Reference is also made to the contribution of Czech musicians towards the Europeanization of Serbian music in the 19th century as well as to their versatile activities in the roles of conductors of military bands and theatre orchestras, orchestral players, choirmasters, music teachers, and composers., Marijana Kokanović Marković., Rubrika: Studie, and Německé resumé na s. 116, anglický abstrakt na s. 103.
Studie Roberta Škardy se zabývá tvorbou českých skladatelů, využívajících ve svých kompozicích polystylovost a koláž, stejně jako teoretickými aspekty takového typu děl a jejich reflexí v odborných časopisech., The topic of this study is the music of Czech composers based mainly on the juxtaposition of styles, stylizations of historical or jazz music, and the use of quotations in the years between 1960 and 2000. It deals with reconstruction of the meanings of the period musical terms polystylism and collage, and it maps out the use of these terms in the reception of this music at the time and in the compositional theory and practice of Czech musical culture during that forty-year period. The main sources for the analysis of terms were reviews, articles, and scholarly studies in music journals along with the contemporary statements of the composers themselves at the time and at the present. In that context, the study follows the leading representatives from among composers and critics, derives the meanings of the terms polystylism and collage, and places them in the context of Czech music of that period. As an example of a specific composition reflected upon in the context of polystylism and collage and exhibiting a number of elements typical of this compositional orientation, the study contains an analysis of the composition Útěk (The Flight) written by Arnošt Parsch in 1973., Robert Škarda., Rubrika: Studie, and Anglické resumé na s. 199, anglický abstrakt 169.
Cíle studie. Výzkum se zaměřuje na zjištění souvislostí mezi rozvodovými postoji, vybranými vlastnostmi rodičovského konfliktu, vnímanou kvalitou vztahu k otci a rodičovskou kooperací. Cílem bylo také zjistit, jak se liší rozvodové postoje mladých dospělých z rozvedených a úplných rodin. Soubor a postup výzkumu. Výzkumu se účastnilo 497 vysokoškoláků (z toho 315 žen) ve věku od 20 do 30 let. 68,6 % tvořili respondenti z úplných rodin, 28,6 % z rozvedených rodin a 2,8 % respondentů uvedlo jinou možnost. Všem byly administrovány dotazníky IPPA, CPIC, CBQ a dotazník zjišťující rozvodový postoj. Hypotézy. Předpokládalo se, že rodičovský konflikt a vztah k otci jsou významnějšími prediktory rozvodového postoje než zážitek rozvodu rodičů a že při kontrole těchto proměnných nebudou mít lidé z rozvedených rodin pozitivnější postoj k rozvodu. Statistické analýzy. Předpoklady byly ověřovány pomocí lineární a hierarchické regrese a t-testů. Výsledky. Byl podpořen předpoklad, že vztah k otci predikuje rozvodový postoj a to společně se zážitkem rozvodu. Kooperace mezi rodiči se ukázala jako významný prvek, který predikuje kvalitu vztahu k otci posuzovanou mladými dospělými a mediuje souvislost mezi rodičovským konfliktem a rozvodovým postojem. Lidé z rozvedených rodin projevili pozitivnější postoje k rozvodu než lidé z rodin úplných. Omezení studie. Největší limity studie představuje lavinový výběr výzkumného souboru a použití metod, jež nebyly standardizovány pro české mladé dospělé., Objectives. The research focuses on the relationship between attitudes toward divorce, perceived parental conflict, father-child relationship quality and parental cooperation. The aim of the study was also to find out whether there is a difference between young adults, divorce attitudes from intact and divorce families. Sample and setting. Research sample included 497 undergraduates (including 315 women) at the age between 20 and 30. 68,6% of sample was from intact families, 28,6% from divorced families and 2,8% reported different option. All respondents were tested using the IPPA, CPIC, CBQ and attitude toward divorce questionnaire. Hypotheses. Parental conflict and quality of father-child relationship were expected to predict divorce attitudes more likely than the experience of parental divorce itself. It was also expected that young adults from divorced families don’t have more positive divorce attitude compared to young adults from intact families. Statistical analysis. The hypotheses were tested using linear and hierarchical regressions and t-tests. Results. The quality of father-child relationship and experience of parental divorce were found to predict young adults, divorce attitudes. The parental cooperation was found to predict quality of father-child relationship perceived by young adults and to mediate a relationship between parental conflict and divorce attitudes. Young adults from divorced families had more positive attitudes toward divorce than young adults from intact families. Study limitation. Snowball selection of respondents and the use of nonstandardized methods for Czech young adults represent the limits of the study., Eliška Horská, Lenka Lacinová., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
The catastrophic floods in the Czech lands in July 1997 and August 2002 showed that historical flood memory had been lost. The little used sources to recover it include early printed books. This article brings a selection of several exceptional flood cases captured by printed documents from the 16th-18th centuries. Extant early printed books and the information that they contain (verified from other sources where possible) suitably complement and extend the potential of historical hydrology and meteorology for the study and documentation of early floods that occurred before the beginning of instrumental observations and measurements. and Jan Munzar, Stanislav Ondráček, Lubor Kysučan.
Studie Tomáše Hlobila se zabývá náplní přednášek estetika Johanna Heinricha Dambecka, které Dambeck přednášel během svého pedagogického působení na pražské univerzitě., This article examines contemporaneous reports about two versions of lectures in aesthetics, which were given at Prague University by Johann Heinrich Dambeck (1774–1820). They were recorded by the publisher Joseph Adolf Hanslik (1785–1859) in a manuscript summary in 1819 and a two-volume book published in 1822 and 1823. The article presents a comparison of the two sources in order to determine which parts of the commentary originate with Dambeck and which with Hanslik. Considering the large scope and the bibliographical nature of the chief part of the appendices to the book, the author of the article concludes that they originated not with Dambeck, but with Hanslik., Tomáš Hlobil., Rubrika: Studie, and Německé resumé na s. 130, anglický abstrakt na s. 123.
a1_A new concept of cardioprotection based on the exploitation of endogenous mechanisms is known as ischemic preconditioning (IPC). It has been hypothesized that substances released during brief ischemic stress (e.g. catecholamines) stimulate the receptors and trigger multiple cell signaling cascades. Opening of ATP-sensitive K+ channels [K(ATP)] has been suggested as a possible final step in the mechanisms of protection. In this study, the role of adrenergic activation was tested in Langendorff-perfused rat hearts subjected to test ischemia (TI; 30 min occlusion of LAD coronary artery) by: 1) mimicking IPC (5 min ischemia, 10 min reperfusion) with short-term (5 min) administration of norepinephrine (NE, 1 µM), 15 min prior to TI; 2) blockade with b- or a1-receptor antagonists, propranolol (10 µM) and prazosin (2 µM), respectively, applied 15 min prior to TI during IPC. The role of K(ATP) opening was examined by perfusion with a K(ATP) blocker glibenclamide (10 mM) during IPC. Both IPC and NE-induced PC effectively reduced the incidence of ventricular tachycardia (VT) to 33 % and 37 %, respectively, vs 100 % in the non-PC controls, whereby ventricular fibrillation (VF) was totally abolished by IPC and markedly suppressed by PC with NE (0 % and 10 %, respectively, vs 70 % in the non-PC hearts; P<0.05). The severity of arrhythmias (arrhythmia score, AS) was also markedly attenuated by both interventions (IPC: AS 1.7±0.4; NE-PC: AS 1.8±0.3 vs AS 4.1±0.2 in the controls; P<0.05). Protection was not suppressed by propranolol (VT 28 %; VF 14 %; AS 2.2±0.6), whereas prazosin reversed the protective effect of PC (VT 83 %; VF 67 %; AS 4.0±0.8). Antiarrhythmic protection afforded by NE-PC was abolished by pretreatment of rats with pertussis toxin (25 mg/kg, i.p.) given 48 h prior to the experiments., a2_Glibenclamide did not suppress the IPC-induced protection. In conclusion, the sensitivity of the rat heart to ischemic arrhythmias can be modulated by IPC. Protection is mediated via stimulation of a1-adrenergic receptors coupled with Gi-proteins but glibenclamide-sensitive K(ATP) channels do not appear to be involved in the mechanisms of antiarrhythmic protection in this model., T.

The paper reflects a long-term ambiguity in the theoretical concept of affective phenomena. The focal point of this study is the conceptualization of the term “affect” with regard to the other affective phenomena (specifically emotion and mood). Our definition of affect is substantially different than existing Czech terminology and we define affect as the necessary component of all affective processes. Contrary to the Czech traditional concept of affect, we do not attribute characteristics such as “high intensity” or “disorganising influence” on cognitive processes, behaviour, etc. per se. We define affect in accordance with many authors, as a point in the continuum of affective stream and the basic unit of all affective phenomena. Affective phenomena or processes we consider as an umbrella term for a complex phenomenon like affect, emotion, mood, emotional episode, interpersonal attitude, sentiment, passion and so on: their common component is the affect. We consider emotion as a figure that emerges in the affective stream as a complex reaction to the event that has meaning for an individual and is interpreted with respect to the experience, context, individual characteristic, and sociocultural environment of the individual. Contrary to the Czech tradition, emotions are viewed as “just” one type of affective phenomena with a relatively specific definitional framework. The moods are considered parts of the affective stream continuum that have a specific and for consciousness accessible quality. The concepts of affect, emotion and mood discussed in this paper are contrasted; however, we have described where they overlap conceptually. The relationships of all affective phenomena have been considered as interacting with a tendency to synchronize into one (for an individual typical) affective stream., I. Poláčková Šolcová, R.
