This thesis deals with Fabian Puléř, an illuminator who lived in the 2nd half of 16th century in Prague, and about his workshop in the Old Town. The main theme is the graduals and their fragments, which were made in his shop or are believed to be made there (the Metropolitan St. Vitus Temple Gradual, the Gradual of Čáslav, the Gradual of Žlutice, three illuminations from the collection of National Gallery in Prague, the two-part St. Valentine's Gradual from the Old Town, the fragments of Kaňkovský Gradual, the Gradual of Louny owned by Jan Táborský of Klokotská Hora, the Gradual of Český Brod), their description and cataloguization. Apart of critically rewieving the literation on the subject to this day, my thesis follows the life of Fabian Puléř regarding archival sources and also influences and impulses behind his work. It also contains crucial chapter about iconography of utraqistic musical manuscripts and about the litterateur brotherhoods, who ordered these hymnic books.

Syfte: Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att beskriva hur SIBA AB:s storytelling påverkar de anställda. Uppsatsen utgår ifrån att storytelling kan ses som ett ledarskapsverktyg och undersöker därför hur de anställda påverkas av Fabian Bengtssons tillämpade ledarstil under rådande påfrestande situation föranledd av marknadsförändringar inom hemelektronikbranschen. Forskningsfrågor: Hur kan en ledare påverka de anställdas attityder till företaget under påfrestande situationer på marknaden? Hur kan storytelling fungera som ledarskapsverktyg för detta genom att öka de anställdas engagemang och intresse. Genomförande: Fallstudien på SIBA AB baseras på en kvantitativ och kvalitativ studie samt en narrativanalys av den pågående reklamkampanjen ”I Fabians värld”. Det empiriska materialet består av en enkätundersökning ställd till 75 anställda och en skriftlig intervju med Fabian Bengtsson samt en narrativanalys som innefattar fem reklamfilmer. Slutsatser: Det framgår av analyserna av det empiriska materialet att kommunikationsverktyget storytelling genom reklamkampanjen har haft en positiv påverkan på de anställda och skapat en uppfattning om ledarens ledarstil. Det framgår även att ledare genom storytelling kan påverka anställdas attityder och intresse för företaget. Detta för att reklamfilmerna har förmåga att skapa identifikation och vi-känsla som kan forma positiva känslor och en bra uppfattning om företaget vilket kan bidra till ett ökat engagemang hos de anställda. / Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to describe how the storytelling of SIBA AB affects the employees. The paper works on the supposition that storytelling is a leadership tool and hence examines how the employees are affected by the leader Fabian Bengtsson’s leadership during difficult times on the market. Research questions: How can a leader influence the employees’ attitudes towards the company during times of pressure on the market? How can storytelling work as a leadership tool in this case to higher the employees’ involvement for an interest in the company? Research method: The case study on SIBA AB is based on quantitative and qualitative methods plus a narrative analysis of the advertising campaign ”I Fabians värld”. The material was collected through a survey including 75 employees and a written interview with Fabian Bengtsson, plus a narrative analysis of five commercials. Conclusions: The analysis shows that storytelling in the advertising campaign has had a positive influence on the employees and has shaped a picture of the leader and of his leadership. The analysis also shows that leaders have the possibility to affect the employees’ attitudes and interest in the company. The reason for this is that commercials have the power to create identification and sense of belonging that can form positive feelings and a good impression of the company which can lead to an increased commitment among the employees.

This thesis is a study on Fabian attitudes towards the struggle for independent labour representation during the last two decades of the nineteenth century. The Fabian Society has often claimed it greatly influenced the struggle to establish a working-class political party prior to the inauguration of the Labour Representation Committee (LRC) in 1900. Yet, many of the Fabians' contemporaries disagreed. This thesis challenges any assertion that the Fabian Society greatly influenced the LRC. Through a study of the Fabian Society's early history, beliefs and attitudes it is clear that the Fabians were more likely to be very negative towards any rank and file movements. The Fabians had little faith in the "average sensual man". Even their Manifesto "To Your Tents Oh Israel" cannot, in the final analysis, be viewed as concrete proof that the Fabian Society placed great hope in the working man and in his struggle for labour representation.
