This thesis in Spanish philology consists of three main parts. The first part represents an in-troduction to Miguel de Unamuno's and Ernest Renan's philosophy, an interpretation of both thinkers' writings in the context of their life stories and the values they defended. The second part is focused on the Czech reception of Ernest Renan between 1864 and 1948. The third part is dedicated to the Czech reception of Miguel de Unamuno between 1922 and 1948.

The present diploma thesis gives an overview of hispanistic topics in the Journal for Modern Philology with emphasis on the period after 1953. The work is divided into three parts. The first and largest part is devoted to the chronological overview of the above-mentioned topics. The second part examines the thematic lines appearing in the journal and the third part provides brief profiles of contributors who published articles with hispanistic topics. The appendix to this work contains a list of all hispanistic contributions in the Journal for Modern Philology from 1911 to 2014 with some additional information.

The purpose of this thesis is to map out the beginning of literature written in the domestic language, i.e. Galician-Portuguese and later Portuguese, as it started to separate from works written in Latin. The first part of the thesis describes how the Portuguese language evolved from Latin, which in turn evolved from the Indo-European language. A colloquial form of Latin began to emerge, splitting later into several dialects. The Galician- Portuguese language appears and individual Romance languages start to form. The new Portuguese language undergoes a period of formation, with the first phase being the Old Portuguese, followed by the classical period, until Portuguese became the language we know now. The second part of the thesis describes the formation and early phases of Portuguese writing, both literary and non-literary, including a list of genres that prevailed during the beginnings of Portuguese literature, and a selection of excerpts of the oldest texts and their translations. Key words: Old Portuguese, old texts, evolution of language, Portuguese philology, translation

This study's primary ambition is to present an overview of the key texts from a genre of Tibetan craniological manuals (Tib. thod brtags) as well as some of their translations, thus illustrating the diversity of this tradition. Based on the reviewed material, a comparison with secondary literature will be made and a few re-evaluations of known facts suggested. Because the only available comprehensive translation of any craniological text was published in 1888 (!) and all the subsequent works have relied on it without necessary critical approach, I decided to translate that original text once again and reveal any possible misinterpretations. As a result, I hope this thesis will contribute to the already present academic (mainly ethnographical oriented) discussion about the use of skulls in Tibet, as its philological support, hence filling up this blank methodological spot.
