A Quiet Valley at Roztoky: Testimony of Singularity in the Landscape Imagery of Zdenka Braunerová by Zdislava Ungrova A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Art and Art History College of the Arts University of South Florida Major Professor: Elisabeth Fraser, Ph.D. Sheramy Bundrick, Ph. D. Helena Szépe, Ph.D. Date of Approval: October 25, 2019 Keywords: Bohemia, woman artist, nineteenth century, Prague, Paris, Czech art Copyright © 2019, Zdislava Ungrova ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would first like to thank my advisor Dr. Elisabeth Fraser for her kind support and patient advice. Her guidance through this thesis and numerous past projects was instrumental in my advancement as an art historian, and for that I will always be grateful. I would also like to express my gratitude to my two readers, Dr. Sheramy Bundrick and Dr. Helena Szépe. Their valuable feedback on my thesis is very appreciated, as is their continuous encouragement throughout my studies. Additionally, I am thankful to Dr. Esra Akin-Kivanç and Dr. Maria Cizmic for their inputs which expanded my perception on the researched subject. My sincere thanks goes to the employees of the Central Bohemian Museum in Roztoky u Prahy. My research could not have been successfully completed without their kind assistance. Their responsiveness and willingness to help me is very appreciated. Special thanks belongs to the wonderful Mr. and Mrs. Halas, who welcomed me to their home and shared their stories with me. I will always cherish our conversation which revealed to me the culture of Zdenka Braunerová’s era. I am also grateful to my mom Jana, my aunt Martina and my sister Gabriela. Without their enthusiastic search for out-of-print material and our discussions about Braunerová’s art, my research would lack personal element. Finally, I would like to thank all of the art history faculty and my graduate colleagues, who expanded my understanding of the art history. I am especially grateful to Ashley Williams and James Cartwright for tirelessly rectifying my use of the English language in numerous drafts and presentation texts.

Spark of this peace- acting was the Bal- kan war from 1992- 1995. After this war – in 1996 – the first „pioneers” started going this way with the motto „hands for peace – give peace hands” to start reconstruction first in northern Bosnia, later in Sarajevo with young Europeans. Guiding theme for this were words right from the heart of the LORD: „Don’t stop giving” or „Be Family!” From this divided life, the youth cen- tre in Sarajevo named „Ivan Pavao II” was established where we came together in remembrance of the start of World War I 100 years ago last year. There, we sent out a peace message out to the world while performing with the arts group Gen- Rosso the musical „streetlight” with about 180 young Europe- ans. Our Pope Francis visited the youth centre in Sarajevo on June 6th 2015 and encouraged them to live together vividly and peacefully with the following statement: „You have an im- portant mission: to never build walls, but bridges!” Then it was clear: This way will go on! After the go4peace camp in 3 Kamen, Germany in 2015, where young adults from 27 dif- ferent nations participated and the camps in Shkodra 2017 and Koszalin 2018 we are happy to be in Brno this year.

In 1993-1994 she lived and worked in Ceske Budejovice, where she was able to speak , with a number of Catholic priests who had been ordained secretly. Since the Velvet Revolution in November, 1989, two events have not yet transpired; surprisingly, the church has not legally separated from the state, and not surprisingly, the Vatican has not formally re-evaluated the conditions necessary for the local Church to participate in the unity of the universal Church.

  • Pope Urges Czechs to Regain Values That Inspired Fight for Freedom
    Pope urges Czechs to regain values that inspired fight for freedom PRAGUE, Czech Republic – Commemorating the 20th anniversary of the peaceful revolt that brought down the country’s communist regime, Pope Benedict XVI urged people in the Czech Republic to rediscover the spiritual and moral values that sustained their struggle for freedom. In gatherings Sept. 26-28 with political, social, cultural and religious leaders as well as the Catholic faithful, the pope delivered a message of hope meant to inspire both the country’s majority of nonbelievers and the minority Catholic community. Central to his message was that no society, no matter how democratic, could ever maintain a healthy and ethical sense of freedom without guidance from the truth found in God and the wisdom of faith. The pope’s trip to Prague, Brno, and Stara Boleslav was his 13th trip abroad and his seventh to Europe. The fact that more than half of his apostolic journeys so far have been to Europe reflects his deep concern for revitalizing the continent’s Christian heritage. “True freedom presupposes the search for truth – for the true good – and hence finds its fulfillment precisely in knowing and doing what is right and just,” the pope said during a meeting Sept. 26 with diplomats and political, civil, religious and cultural leaders in Prague’s presidential palace. Under the soaring gilded stucco ceilings of the palace, the pope reminded his audience that the country’s hard-fought freedom must be properly used. Leaders in society have the duty to encourage citizens to seek the truth and goodness, he said.

  • Monument to Prague Archbishop Beran Unveiled
    Monument to Prague Archbishop Beran unveiled ČTK | 8 December 2009 Prague, Dec 7 (CTK) - Prague Archbishop Cardinal Miloslav Vlk yesterday unveiled a monument to the late Prague Archbishop Cardinal Josef Beran outside the Catholic Theological Faculty building and blessed it. Vlk said Beran, who died 40 years ago, was an outstanding figure of Czech history and a symbol of the resistance against the Communist totalitarian rule. "At the time when our country started to be swamped with the deluge of hatred and lies of Communist ideology while many contemporaries failed to see the tremendous danger, Beran clearly saw it with his intellect," Vlk said. "He stood up firmly and with determination against the danger, with his whole being, before the eyes of church and the general public in order to defend the spiritual values of good, love and truth," he added. Vlk said the blessing of the statue meant that the church was giving it to the public homage. The statue depicts a kneeling priest outside an open gate made of stone. The ceremony was attended by over 100 people. Beran became Prague archbishop in 1946, after he returned home from the concentration camp in Dachau, to which he was sent after the assassination of Deputy Reich-Protector of Bohemia and Moravia Reinhard Heydrich in 1942 by Czechoslovak paratroopers. After the Communist coup in 1948, he refused to bow to the Communist regime. One year later, he was detained by the secret police and held in the Prague Archbishopric Palace for two years. In 1965, Beran was appointed a cardinal, but the Communist regime forced him to leave Czechoslovakia.

  • Last Updates NEWS Pakistan: Lahore
    N. 2 – 02/02/2009 Last updates www.paoline.org NEWS Pakistan: Lahore - With the Fervor and Courage of the Apostle Paul (30-01-2009) The FSPs of Pakistan celebrated the Feast of the Conversion of St. Paul by means of a very meaningful and courageous initiative that was strongly supported by the local bishops and priests and also by our Protestant brothers and sisters. The initiative was meaningful because it consisted of the launch of a new VCD and DVD on the Apostle Paul. It was courageous, given the delicate situation of the country at this moment. But the fortitude and zeal of our sisters helped them conquer every fear. In just one morning, they disseminated 350 copies in Urdu in the parishes they visited in Lahore, Rawalpindi and Karachi! Their juniors, novices and aspirants were ecstatic. In fact, all our sisters were surprised by the enthusiasm of the people, who joyfully welcomed the chance to get to better know the great Apostle of the Gentiles. Mexico: Mexico City - The Family Rediscovers Its Role as Formator (29-01-2009) Families from all the world’s continents gathered in Mexico City from 14-18 January 2009 for the 6th World Meeting of Families–an event in which more than 10,000 people participated. The meeting was preceded by an International Theological-Pastoral Congress on the theme of the family. During the first part of the World Meeting, experts underscored the family as the “fundamental cell” of society. The second part of the encounter centered around a “day of witness,” during which families from all over the world described how they live and transmit human and Christian values in diverse socio-cultural contexts.

  • The Local Impact of the Charta Œcumenica the Current Stage of the Evaluation Process
    The Local Impact of the Charta Œcumenica The current stage of the evaluation process Aikaterini Pekridou (Editor) Introduction In spring 2017 the Conference of European Churches initiated a new research process on the reception of the guidelines for the growing cooperation among churches in Europe. The process is twofold. On the one hand, the Conference of European Churches addressed its members and partners concerning the reception of the guidelines. On the other hand, it explored online and printed material on the Charta Œcumenica in order to enhance its understanding of the reception of the document by its members and dialogue partners. The first part (I) of the present paper provides a summary of the responses to the document, whereas the second part (II) presents a list of online sources that demonstrate how the document was received in different parts of Europe including a list of important publications on the document. As the Charta Œcumenica is a document owned by both the Conference of European Churches (CEC) and the Council of European Bishops’ Conferences (CCEE), the Conference of European Churches is cooperating with the Council in order to provide a clear analysis of the impact of the Charta Œcumenica on churches and church-related bodies. At the last meeting of the CCEE-CEC Joint Committee held in Brussels from 9-10 March 2018, the members of the Committee were consulted on the reception of the document and decided to look at how the guidelines could be further strengthened with input from the churches, National Councils of Churches and Bishop Conferences around Europe.
