Předkládaná práce je podle recenzentky především studií kulturního a kulturněpolitického vývoje Československa a Spolkové republiky Německo od konce druhé světové války do počátku sedmdesátých let, s těžištěm v letech šedesátých. V duchu nových politických dějin a nových kulturních dějin autorka zkoumá roli vysoké politiky i společenských skupin mimo státní struktury, především tvůrců a konzumentů kulturní produkce, která se stala předmětem kulturní výměny mezi Československem a Spolkovou republikou. Zároveň si všímá, jak byly tyto procesy a události komentovány v dobovém tisku, a celkově se snaží zobrazit zkoumané kulturní projevy v tehdejším politickém, společenském a hospodářském klimatu v obou státech. Zaměřuje se přitom zejména na oblast filmu a výtvarného umění a zdůrazňuje mimořádný význam vzájemných kulturních transferů mezi oběma zeměmi v době, kdy mezi nimi neexistovaly diplomatické styky. and [autor recenze] Soňa Mikulová.
The Pilsen-Senec Mesolithic station is situated on the left banks of the Berounka River, 14-16 meters above its current level, in an industinct saddle 326 m above sea level. The chipped stone industry form Pilse-Senec has a distinctly diverse material composition. The raw material are predominantly local and include different varieties of hornstone, lydite, slate, quartz, sandstone and limonite. Imported materials are represented by Nordic flint, differnet varieties of Bavarian hornstone and northwest Bohemian quartzite (Bečov, Skršín and Tušimeice types). The cipped stone industry from Pilsen-Senec is a relatively large collection of artifacts (2 069 pieces) with madny different raw materials. Trhe pridution part of the collection is absolutely predominat. The number of microliths and retouched artifats is very small. Hammerstones,anvils and heating stones are also presnet. Covetional typological analysis has differentiated between two groups of artifacts. The first group has characteristic Mesolithic microliths - such as Komornica type points, sements, a triangle, Borki type blade, and microblades. A tendecy toward microlithization is also indicated by several other tools such as end-scrapers, burins and awls. The second group consists of artifacts typical for the late Paleolithic period, for example a convexed backed point, chisels, awls,, bacek blades, lateral burigns and long blades. Using the typical approach, it would seem appropriate to divide the complex itno twoo cultural complexes- late Paleolithic and Mesolithic., Jan Fridrich, Ivana Fridrichová-Sýkorová, Milan Metlička., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
Publikace poměrně podrobně charakterizuje vývoj slovenské ekonomiky, a zvláště dopravy již od poloviny 19. století, byť ve svém jádru pojednává o období samostatné Slovenské republiky (1939-1945) a poválečného tříletí. Podle recenzenta jde o velmi solidní a komplexní práci, jejíž největší přínos spočívá ve využití velkého množství dosud nezpracovaných pramenů a v zachycení pozoruhodných rozdílů v rozvoji dopravní infrastruktury, technologií a způsobů cestování mezi českými zeměmi a Slovenskem v různých obdobích., The publication History of transportation in Slovakia 1938-1948 (1950): Its boundaries and limits characterizes in a fairly detailed manner the development of the Slovak economy since the mid-1800s, although its core deals with the independent Slovak Republic (1939-1945) and the first three years after the war. In the reviewer´s opinion, it is a very solid and comprehensive work the greates contribution of which consists in the use of a large amount of hitherto unprocessed sources and a capture of remarkable differences in the development of transportation infrastructure, technologies, and modes of travel between Slovakia and the Cezch Lands in various periods of time., [autor recenze] Pavel Szobi., and Obsahuje bibliografii a bibliografické odkazy
Publikace ve formě historického průvodce prostřednictvím hesel a průvodních fotografií o téměř padesáti místech a objektech v Brně přibližuje tvář moravské metropole v období československého stalinismu, tedy na konci čtyřicátých a počátku padesátých let minulého století. Recenzent představuje podobu knihy a některé význačné reálie tehdejšího Brna, které jsou v ní zachyceny. Příznivě přitom hodnotí fakt, že její určení širší čtenářské veřejnosti není na újmu odborné úrovni a faktografické spolehlivosti. Za dílčí nedostatek považuje absenci rozsáhlejší úvodní studie a chronologického přehledu dobových událostí v Československu., The publication under review is a historical guidebook, with entries and accompanying photographs on almost fifty places and buildings in Brno, the capital of Moravia. Its focus, however, is the city in the period of Czechoslovak Stalinism, that is, from the late 1940s to the early 1950s. The reviewer discusses the form of the book and some of the important background to Brno in that period. He appreciates the fact that although the book is intended for the general public this is not to the detriment of its scholarship and the reliability of its facts. He does, nevertheless, see a small shortcoming in the absence of a substantial introduction and chronology of events in Czechoslovakia in this period., [autor recenze] Jiří Pernes., and Obsahuje bibliografii a bibliografické odkazy
Count Joseph of Auersperg (1767-1829) was a lawyer, the president of the Bohemian Land Court and a member of the Prague Masonic lodge "At the Truth and Unity at the three Crowned Pillars" (Zur Wahrheit und Einigkeit zu den drei gekrönten Säulen). After the so called Jacobin trials (1794-1795) the Masonry was forbidden in the Habsburg monarchy and the Masonic lodges stopped their activities in order to avoid the state persecution. Despite the official proscription of Masonic lodges count Auersperg attempted to renew this lodge. Auersperg made use of the atmosphere of the illusive political thaw after the defeat of the Austrian army in 1809. He managed to succeed in his efforts until 1812 when the Austrian police traced this activity on the grounds of opening and controlling his correspondence. The count was then punished by transfer to Brno to serve there as the president of the Appellate Court in Moravia. In Brno he entered the environment influenced by local masons who after the dissolution of their lodge channelled their activities to philanthropy, culture and organization of science. They initiated a plan to found the Moravian museum in Brno after the example of Joanneum in Graz in Styria. In the person of Auersperg these men found an ardent supporter of this idea. Auersperg participated in presenting the programme of the new museum to the MoravianSilesian Gubernium. The plan was approved by the authorities and Auersperg thus became one of the founders of this prominent institution. The harassment he suffered from the police regime and his overall case are illustrative of the methods used by the Austrian state against its real as well as supposed opponents. In his private correspondence with friends Auersperg made critical remarks about the situation at the Land Court in Prague, which was also revealed by the police and reported to the emperor.

The study discusses Libor Jan’s hypothesis that the Rajhrad Monastery was not only founded as an independent institution, but was also a collegiate chapter and not a Benedictine cloister. Jan later declared Rajhrad a significant centre for the 10th century South Moravian church and even the seat of a bishop’s filial office. Although these hypotheses were insufficiently supported, they began to be accepted in the literature. However, most of the arguments in favour of these ideas can be disproven. The author examines the so-called Pseudo-Břetislav Fakes that include the Břevnov Monestary’s claim to Rajhrad and proves the authenticity of the testimony within. The conflict between the Olomouc bishops and Břevnov is also discussed, presenting the older claims by the Prague institution. The author also analyses immunity and indulgence documents, which do not show the independence of the Rajhrad Monastery. The author also doubts the church tradition lasting from the post-Great Moravia period, which is the basis for Jan’s hypotheses. and Dana Zapletalová.
To mark the 40th death anniversary of František Dvorník, one of the eminent twentieth-century experts in Slavic and Byzantine history and in relations between the churches of Rome and Constantinople, the Institute of Slavonic Studies of the CAS organized the international symposium entitled Francis Dvorník: Scholar and His Work at villa Lanna in Prague. The conference was also included in the events celebrating the 125th anniversary of the foundation of the Czech Academy of Sciences and Arts. On September 10, 2015, the Institute of Slavonic studies of the CAS and the editorial board of Byzantinoslavica organized (also on the occasion of the 40th death anniversary of Francis Dvorník) an international workshop Lives, Roles and Actions of the Byzantine Empresses (4th-15th c.). and Martina Čechová.
There are many uncertainties about the production and dissemination of vocal polyphony manuscripts from Prague illuminators’ and scribes’ ateliers compared with the dissemination of monophonic vocal manuscripts. The only known “workshop” producing manuscripts with primarily polyphonic music is the one led by Master Jan Kantor Starý († 1582) in Prague’s New Town. However, the number of surviving manuscripts suggests that more “workshops” might have existed in Prague at the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries. The goal of this study is to ascertain if there were any other ateliers in Prague producing vocal polyphony manuscripts during the analysed period. The findings are based on recent palaeographic and codicological analyses of the selected group of polyphonic sources written by identical scribal hands: Kutná Hora Codex from 1593 (Czech Museum of Music, Prague), Trubka’s Gradual from 1604 (Prague City Archives, Prague), the Partbook of the St. Barbara Literary Brotherhood in Přeštice from 1619 (National Library of the Czech Republic, Prague) and a bifolio from an unknown partbook in the Gradual of the St. Castulus Church from 1580 (Library of the Archbishop’s Chateau, Kroměříž). The comparison of the analysed scribal hands indicates the existence of an atelier that was probably from the milieu of the royal court. Systematic inquiries into the professional production of polyphonic manuscripts should thus continue because that is the only way to better and fully understand the musical culture of the Czech lands during the Renaissance., Natálie Krátká., Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy, and Jan Pulkrábek [překladatel]
