Since the 1960s, following the dramatic changes in the Roman Catholic Church, the design of the chalices used at the communion service became simplified; many of them becoming so plain that they are only wine goblets devoid of any decoration. As Catholics implement the changes of the Second Vatican Council, we have a growing desire for sacred vessels that better reflect a sense of awe.The purpose of this creative project is to explore symbolism used in chalice design. Traditional and newer symbols are incorporated into the chalices produced in this project.My creative process involves a community of people. Teachers, fellow students, friends and members of my church shared their knowledge, ideas and insights to enrich the final products.The sense of the sacred is not limited to God because God is present within each person. To be aware of the sacred in my own designs I need to be in touch with the sacred within me. / Department of Art

Presented work has in its first part tried to evaluate both textual and theological development of the liturgy in the Czechoslovak (Hussite) church. It has focused on Farsky's translation of the Roman Mass from 1919, first liturgical reforms of the young church, liturgical diversification and unifiction in newly conceived liturgy by Karel Farsky in 1923. The work further follows development of such liturgy, especially its revision in 1939 and attempts of liturgical renewal in seventies and eighties of the twentieth century. The final conclusion of the thesis resides in stating that revision was crucial for blurring certain parts of Farsky's liturgy. It was not conciliated with Učení, official doctrinal document of the Church, and also didn't stay in line with its origin. The main part of the work is focused on analysis of singular parts of Second Liturgy s it was adopted by Assembly in 1991. We attempt to compare this liturgy with earlier versions as mentioned above. This thesis particularly states, that recent version of the Second Liturgy presents two parts of the liturgy of the Word,when the first reading is sharply distinguished from the rest. Furthermore, Opening antiphon (Introit) and Communium antiphon (Communio) are misleadingly placed. In fact, only Offertory antiphon (Offertorium) is located...
