Les sanctuaires, ou vihāra, des monastères bouddhiques – ou vat - ont joué de tout temps un rôle essentiel dans la société cambodgienne. Lieux de rassemblement, de prière et d’enseignement auprès de la grande statue du Buddha, leurs murs puis leurs plafonds, ont reçu un décor peint racontant ses Vies antérieures et sa Vie historique. Ces témoignages ne figurent sur aucune liste des Archives Nationales de Phnom Penh et n’ont jamais fait l’objet d’une étude approfondie, et encore moins d’un recensement. Les plus anciennes peintures ne sont pas antérieures à la fin du XIXe siècle et les plus récentes ne dépassent pas le milieu des années 1970, période où les Khmers rouges ferment tous les monastères et commencent la destruction de leurs édifices et principalement des vihāra. Plus de 3000 monastères ont été répertoriés et quelque 1800 sanctuaires ont été photographiés pendant cette recherche dont le résultat se présente en trois volumes : le volume I est une étude de la peinture en six chapitres concernant essentiellement les vihāra mais aussi quelques sālā et kūtī ; le volume II contient les annexes constituées d’environ 1400 photographies, des cartes détaillées et la liste des vat concernés ; le volume III est un catalogue des 206 vat ayant conservé des peintures anciennes sur les murs, ou sur d’autres supports - bois, toile, verre ou métal - , illustré de quelque 500 photographies. / Temples, or vihāra, of Buddhist monasteries, or watt, always played an essential role in Cambodian society. Places of gathering, prayer and teaching which house the largest statue of the Buddha of the monastery, many of them of have received a decor of paintings on their walls and ceiling, recounting his previous Lives and his historical Life. This heritage is not present in the National Archives of Phnom Penh and has never been the subject of a thorough study, let alone a census. The oldest paintings are not earlier than the end of the 19th century and the most recent do not exceed the mid-1970s, when the Khmer Rouges close all monasteries and begin to destroy their buildings, mainly the vihāra. More than 3000 monasteries have been identified and 1800 sanctuaries were photographed during this research whose result is presented in three volumes : volume I is a study of the paintings into six chapters concerning mainly the vihāra but also some sālā and kūtī; volume II contains the annexes with approximately 1400 photographs, detailed maps and lists of the concerned watt ; volume III is a catalogue of the 206 watt having preserved ancient murals, or paintings on other supports - wood, canvas, glass or metal –, with roughly 500 photographs.

This diploma thesis deals with brewing and malting as a way of livelihood of ecclesiastical and secular goods in the territory of the Czech kingdom. This work is also aimed at showing our traditional and national beverage as an important part of our culture and tradition. It wants to introduce beer not only as an alcoholic beverage, but mainly as a business article. Its production and trading with it has been a source of high income not only in the treasuries of cities and nobility, but also in the treasuries of the church. As an example of the Church Brewery, the Conventional Brewery was chosen in Vyšší Brod. The first chapter of the work attempts to show the history of beer brewing closer. The thesis does not aim to describe the history of beer production, but to focus on the first references to it and the production methods used from the oldest cultures, such as Mesopotamian, Babylonian or Egyptian, to our closest Slavonic culture. Another chapter tries to map the production of beer and the struggle for it on the territory of the Czech Crown in the period of its rise, prosperity and mild decline in the middle of the seventeenth century. The last chapter is focused on the Conventional Brewery in Vyšší Brod, which was chosen as a characteristic example for the selected theme and above all as a monument...

Le corpus du projet repose sur les Cartapácios de Coimbra, un ensemble de manuscrits du milieu du XVIIe siècle, résolument passionnants et pratiquement inédits, issus de Santa Cruz et conservés à la Bibliothèque Générale de l’Université de Coimbra. Le présent travail s’inscrit dans un projet de recherche multidisciplinaire en cours à l’Université de Coimbra (Mundos e Fundos | CECH), et se concentre sur l´un des seize manuscrits de cette collection : le manuscrit musical 51 (MM 51). Il constitue la première étude détaillée d’un cartapácio comportant également son édition critique complète. Cette étude monographique engage également une confrontation permanente avec les quinze autres cartapácios et avec son contexte spécifique portugais et ibérique.D’après notre étude philologique, le MM 51 s’avère un cahier d’usage personnel d’un musicien à l’œuvre. Il contient un répertoire très varié regroupant des œuvres sur textes latins et sur textes vernaculaires. Les propositions polyphoniques que le manuscrit offre sont multiples et variées, souvent au sein d’une même œuvre, et appartiennent à un langage typiquement ibérique. La majorité de la musique est écrite à huit voix, toujours en polychoralité et accompagnée d’un guião, avec divers contrastes produits notamment par un style concertato.Le travail est fondé sur une approche positiviste, philologique et critique, le tout enrichi par une expérimentation analytique et sensible du répertoire, grâce au laboratoire musicale de la Capella Sanctae Crucis.Notre thèse espère ainsi contribuer à enrichir les fondements d’une meilleure connaissance de l’activité musicale du XVIIe siècle portugais. / This study is based on Cartapácios de Coimbra, an ensemble of practically unstudied seventeenth century music manuscripts preserved at Coimbra’s University Library (Biblioteca Geral da Universidade de Coimbra). It is part of a multidisciplinary research project currently in progress at University of Coimbra (Mundos e Fundos | CECH). The research is concentrated on one manuscript among the sixteen that constitute this collection: musical manuscript 51 (MM 51). This study is the first ever detailed study over one cartapácio including its complete critical edition. Although focussing primarily on one cartapácio, a comparative analysis with the respect to the other fifteen cartapácios was also conducted, and located in the specific Portuguese and Iberian context.According to our philological study, the MM 51 seems to be a notebook for private use of a working musician. It contains a very diverse repertoire comprising both vernacular and Latin works. The polyphonic settings in the manuscript are multiple and varied, often within the same work, and belong to a typically Iberian language. The majority of the music is written for eight voices, always in polychorality and accompanied by a guião, with various contrasts produced in particular by a concertato style.A positivist, philological and critical approach was taken in the research, which was supplemented by an experimental performance of the repertory, thanks to the musical laboratory Capella Sanctae Crucis.It is hoped that this thesis study will substantially enrich the knowledge base of Portuguese seventeenth century musical activity.

Contribution to the origin and temporary state of the former monastery in Pivoň Abstract This Thesis is contributing to the issue of establishment of former Pivon Monastery,belonging to the Order of st. Augustin between years 1266-1787. Its' origin is a bit older, probably connected with Wilhelmite order, but there still remains a possibility of another, unknown founder. To this topic exist many relevant articles, the same as architectonical surveys but without any strict solution. The oldest visible architectonic parts survived till our days in presbytery of the monastic Church of Annunciation. In the time of writing this Thesis is the area of former monastery put up for auction and its' state is unfavourible, due to the sequences of events in 20th century and unfinished renovation from previous decade. That's why is this Thesis also focused on the poor state of properties of the Monastery area and church and is trying to figure out at least theoretical solution to current situation from the view of monument care.

Syftet med studien har varit att undersöka hur deltagandeti klosterverksamheten eller 12-stegsprogrammet inom Kriminalvården har påverkat tidigare intagna på deras väg mot ett laglydigt liv. Studien bygger på sex kvalitativa intervjuer. Fyra livshistorieintervjuer med tidigare intagna och två semistrukturerade med kriminalvårdare. Resultatet visade att deltagandet i något av behandlingsprogrammen har haft betydelse för deltagarna och att det har gett dem verktyg för att arbeta med sig själva. För att behandlingsprogrammen ska vara effektiva menade dock samtliga intervjudeltagare att det krävs en vilja hos individen till att förändras. Vidare visade studiens resultat att även andlighet har en central roll i behandlingen, men att det är något individuellt. / The purpose of this study has been to examine if participation in the monastery-program or the 12 step program within the Swedish Prison and probation service has had an impact on former inmates in their road to a non-criminal life. The study is based on six qualitative interviews. Four life-course interviews with previous inmates and two semi-structured interviews with two caretakers active within the Swedish Prison and probation service. The result showed that participating in one of the treatment programs has had a significant meaning for the participants and it gave them tools to work with themselves. For the programs to be effective, however, all interviewed participants believed that the individuals will to change was crucial. Furthermore the results of this study showed that spirituality also has a central role in the treatment but the interpretation of it is individual.
