Initial idea of this work: " The contribution theology Cardinal Schwarzenberg Vatican Council? , The de facto theological story that " started " at the September provincial council in Prague ( 1860) , and over the First Vatican Council ( 1869-1870 ) , the place - the fundamental ideas of Cardinal Schwarzenberg - up to II . Vatican Council (1962-1965). We must ask ourselves what was the theology of Cardinal Schwarzenberg exceptional and why has the range and in the decades after the First Vatican Council. These questions and many others began to form this work. Response them in three circuits . The first issue is the milieu of contemporary Czech society, which entails " Czech question" because it has the attributes of the ideas of Jan Hus, who was one of the requirements to be " God's word could freely proclaim," which Cardinal Schwarzenberg sees as one of the keys to their pastoral care to address the overall " religiously sentient inhabitants " to what is now called ecumenism, and the Cardinal called her a contemporary "family faith." So the family home environment to be introduced to the "family environment" of the Church, which "does not divide, but integrates" . The second area is the communion of the Catholic congregation, which already carries specific nature of faith , which gives information on the human , not as individuals , but persons as believers lives and moves "in communion" communion sanctorum "that accompanies the believer personally and for boundaries of the church (the Church). Therefore, even in sacred spaces Divine Liturgy promotes "Discourse in the middle of the Mass," because it helps ensure that a person liturgically activated in "upgrade of Church's thinking" (that later " aggiornamento ") in the world. The third issue is the consistency believer in education as Cardinal Schwarzenberg has a graduate character: discipline, teaching and cultivating. In this characteristic "inculcation" of a person into a "divine milieu" of humanity is in the attributes of participation in "completing the world that God created Undone", as taught by A. Günther , and one has a personal interest in "his physiognomy ." All three themes should help understanding " personal infallibility of the Pope," which is not deistic static, is based on the individual, but carries the story of spiritual formation tradition of the whole Church, in whose center is the Christological fraternity, to which the " indoctrinated " hierarchy of jurisdiction, which cannot be separated from each other, but in accepting the structure of the human being shed on the integral concept of the Catholic Church as organic. Which took place in the contemporary modification to the II. Vatican Council.

The MA thesis briefly describes the history of the Vatican Council II and analyses the reaction of Czechoslovakian press to the Vatican Council II. The theoretical part aims at outlining the history, the course, the results and the importance of the Vatican Council II for the Catholic Church and also for the whole world. The theoretical opening is then reflected in the practical part of the MA thesis. It helps the reader to understand the issue. The theoretical opening pays attention to some important life moments of Pope John XXIII., ``the Council Maker{\crqq}. It focuses on the council idea, the definition of the council goals and setup time work before the council. It follows clarification of some organization issues during the council. It mentions its rule of procedure description. Another part of the theoretical part contains the development of all the council meetings and their results. There is also a list of council documents and evaluation of the Vatican Council II´s importance at the end of the theoretical part. The practical part of the MA thesis contains analysis of newspaper articles, namely from the Rudé právo and the Lidová demokracie dailies, covering the Vatican Council II. The monitored issues were: the space dedicated by the above dailies to the Council, the richness, content variety and balance of the coverage. The aim of the practical part and the MA thesis as a whole was the content analysis of the two 1960s daily newspapers and their reaction to the development and the result of the Council. It also contains content analysis comparison of these two newspapers and also identification of the extent of difference in objectivity and the ideological pressure on the news.

This thesis concerns the relationship between the just autonomy of institutes of consecrated life (c. 586) and societies of apostolic life (c. 732) and the authority which the diocesan bishop exercises in the ordering of the apostolic mission within the local church. Since many institutes and societies are present in the dioceses of the Church, an understanding of the nature and extent of this relationship constitutes an important element in the day-to-day life of the apostolate in a diocese. The thesis explores the origin and meaning of just autonomy and the consequent limits it sets for the diocesan bishop and institutes and societies in the fulfillment of the mission of the Church. Although the concept of just autonomy does not occur in the documents of the Second Vatican Council, nevertheless its presence in the Code of Canon Law stands as a valid development from the conciliar teachings. Although the thesis demonstrates that other groups within the Church possess autonomy, the author maintains that just autonomy has its origin in, and is consequent upon, the granting of public juridic personality to institutes and societies by the law itself. The original contribution of the thesis to the body of canonical knowledge rests on this point. Just autonomy does not represent independence from ecclesiastical authority. Rather it helps to define the relationships of authority between bishops, religious superiors, and members of institutes. Moreover, just autonomy points to the obligations of institutes and their members to maintain the patrimony of their institutes. The discernment and recognition by the Church's authorities brings these institutes and societies into existence. The moment of formal erection, which follows, grants them their public juridic personality and, consequently, their right to a just autonomy of life and especially of governance. The Second Vatican Council recognised that all bishops possess the ordinary, proper and immediate power to fulfill their office in the church. By their canonical mandate, diocesan bishops also possess the right to exercise that power in ordering the apostolate within their churches. Yet, because of the just autonomy of institutes and societies, the diocesan bishop has a duty to protect them from unwarranted interference from diocesan members and agencies. The Code of Canon Law foresees that the progress of the relationship between institutes and societies and the diocesan bishop demands consultation, cooperation, mutual acceptance, and dialogue. The interventions made by the participants at the Ninth Ordinary Synod of Bishops in 1994 demonstrated that these demands are exercised variously throughout the Church. Cultural, political, economic factors, and ecclesiastical history demonstrate the relativity of the relationship between bishops and institutes and societies. In recognising this, the thesis maintains that further understanding of the effect of just autonomy will be understood by examining the written documents that the law requires when institutes and societies wish to participate in the mission of the particular churches. The thesis concludes that these documents must recognise not only the works being undertaken, but also their relationship to the patrimony of the institutes and societies.
