    MASARYK UNIVERSITY OF BRNO FACULTY OF EDUCATION Bachelor thesis Brno 2014 Tomáš Kvítek Masaryk University Faculty of Education Department of English Language and Literature Peter Shaffer’s Amadeus and The Royal Hunt of the Sun Bachelor Thesis Brno 2014 Supervisor: Written by: Mgr. Lucie Podroužková, Ph.D. Tomáš Kvítek 2 Anotace Hlavním záměrem této bakalářské práce je analyzovat postavy Wolfganga Mozarta, Antonia Salieriho a Francisca Pizarra ve dvou divadelních hrách významného anglického dramatika a scénáristy Petera Shaffera, jehož díla Amadeus a Královský Hon na Slunce významně přispěly do britského kulturního dědictví. Úvodní část představuje Petera Shaffera v kontextu postmoderního britského divadla, a následně zmiňuje hry, které byly adaptovány pro české divadlo. Primárně však tato práce zkoumá osobnostní charakteristiky hlavních protagonistů, jejich postoje a myšlenky z hlediska jejich sociálního a kulturního zázemí. Práce také kriticky nahlíží na dobu imperialismu z hlediska postmodernismu v kontextu těchto her. Annotation The main objectives of this thesis is to analyse the characters of Wolfgang Mozart, Antonio Salieri and Fancisco Pizarro in two plays written by an eminent English playwright and screenwriter Peter Shaffer whose masterpieces Amadeus and The Royal Hunt of The Sun have significantly contributed to British cultural heritage. The introductory part places Peter Shaffer in the context of post-modern British theatre and subsequently, introduces those of his plays that have been adapted for Czech theatres. Primarily, however, it examines the protagonists’ personal characteristics, their attitudes and thoughts within a perception of their social and cultural background. It also conducts a critical look into the era of imperialism from the perspective of post-modernism within the context of the plays.

Festival Activities: Opera performances from the Czech Republic and Overseas Symphonic Concerts Chamber Concerts Choral Concerts Matinées International Colloquium Workshops for Children Exhibitions Introductory Lectures Main Organiser: National Theatre Brno (Národní divadlo Brno) Co-organisers: Moravian Museum, Janáček Academy of Music and Performing Arts, Brno Philharmonic and Masaryk University About the Festival: Just as in Czech history, the years ending with the number eight have an almost symbolic significance, so in Czech musical history it is the number four. The National Theatre Brno was opened in 1884; Bedřich Smetana, the founder of national Czech music, lived from 1824 to 1884; Antonín Dvořák died in 1904; Josef Suk was born in 1874 and other composers whose lives are connected with the number four include Kryštof Harant from Polžice, František Václav Míča, Emil František Burian, Jan Rychlík, Karel Kryl and Jan Klusák. A sorrowful anniversary refers to the year 1944, when the outstanding Jewish composers Pavel Haas, Viktor Ullmann and Hans Krása died during the Nazi persecution. However, for the 4th International Janáček Brno Festival 2014, the significant date is the 160th anniversary of Janáček’s birth. All of the important musical anniversaries are commemorated in the ‘Year of Czech Music’ with a sincere and festive quality.

  • Implementing JESSICA in the South-East Cohesion Region, Czech Republic
    JESSICA JOINT EUROPEAN SUPPORT FOR SUSTAINABLE INVESTMENT IN CITY AREAS Implementing JESSICA in the South-East Cohesion Region, Czech Republic EVALUATION STUDY English version May 2010 This document has been produced with the financial assistance of the European Union. The views expressed herein can in no way be taken to reflect the official opinion of the European Union. Implementing JESSICA in the South-East Cohesion Region, Czech Republic Evaluation Study Introduction “JESSICA stands for Joint European Support for Sustainable Investment in City Areas. This initiative is being developed by the European Commission and the European Investment Bank (EIB), in collaboration with the Council of Europe Development Bank (CEB). Under new procedures, Member States are being given the option of using some of their EU grant funding, their so-called Structural Funds, to make repayable investments in projects forming part of an integrated plan for sustainable urban development. These investments may take the form of equity, loans and/or guarantees. JESSICA is not a new source of funding for Member States, but rather a new way of using existing Structural Fund grant allocations to support urban development projects.” (EIB, Jessica 2008) This Evaluation Study was prepared based on the contract of 11 November 2009 between the client and author. The text is based on documents and information available as of elaboration date hereof and shown in the secondary literature chart. The study reflects and states truly all relevant information known to the author on the topic. Nevertheless, the author shall not be liable for possible changes in parameters, information and/or forecasts in future or for possible damage incurred due to a decision of economic or non-economic nature based on the information named or not named in this Study.

  • Report from Brno
    European Stages https://europeanstages.org Report from Brno Brno, the second largest city in the Czech Republic, has been quite overshadowed culturally by Prague, but it nevertheless has a rich cultural life of its own and a thriving varied theatre scene, which I had the pleasure of exploring on a visit there in mid-May of 2014. The city’s leading theatres are the three national theatres. The oldest of these, at least in terms of physical structure is the Reduta, housed in the oldest theatre building in central Europe, where the young Mozart and his sister performed in December of 1767. At that time the building, actually dating back to medieval times, and converted into a tavern in 1605, had been operating as the Taverna Theatre for more than a century. Since the eighteenth century the premises have undergone fires, closings, remodelings, and conversion to other uses, so that the present interior, almost totally rebuilt in 2005, shows few traces of its long history, though the elegant front hall, where Mozart performed, looking out onto the oldest market square in Brno, retains its original shape and windows, but little other decoration. The actural Reduta theatre is an elegant little modern space built in a modified eighteen-century style, in another area of this same upper floor. The Reduta Theatre 1 / 10 European Stages https://europeanstages.org In the Reduta I saw a type of production not uncommon in the more experimental stages of the city, but seen in this theatre for the first time—an intimate audience actually seated on the stage and surrounding the actors on three sides.
