This diploma thesis deals with pronunciation teaching in English lessons in elementary education. The aims of this thesis are to describe how Czech curricular documents deal with pronunciation teaching within English lessons, to describe aspects of English pronunciation including contrast with the Czech language, to summarize history of English teaching from the pronunciation point of view, and to describe current approaches to teaching English pronunciation. Last but not least the aim of this thesis is also to highlight methods, objectives, models for English pronunciation teaching and their importance. The research is conducted in two ways - observing English lessons and questionnaire survey amongst teachers. Its aims are to find out whether teachers teach the correct pronunciation within their English lessons, how they are supported by used textbooks, what their aims for pronunciation teaching are, which aspects of English pronunciation they focus on and what methods they use for it. There is one more aim set within observing lessons and that is to briefly review the level of teachers' pronunciation.

Lo scavo della chiesa di Santa MAria Maggiore ha permesso di acquisire nuove importanti informazioni sulla storia della città di Trento, sulla città tardo antica e sul processo di cristianizzazione. Il primo impianto ecclesiastico, datato a dopo la metà del V d. C. secolo, sorge su un precedente impianto termale realizzato intorno al II secolo d. C. ed appare caratterizzato da un forte carattere monumentale. La chiesa, a tre navate, presentava un presbiterio rialzato decorato in una prima fase da un opus sectile poi sostituito nel VI secolo da un mosaico policromo. Sono state rinvenute inoltre, parti consistenti della decorazione architettonica di fine VIII secolo pertinente questo stesso impianto che non subirà importanti modifiche fino alla realizzazione del successivo edificio di culto medievale, meno esteso e dai caratteri decisamente meno monumentali, caratterizzato dalla presenza di un esteso campo cimiteriale rinvenuto a nord della chiesa. A questo impianto ne succede un terzo, probabilmente a due navate, e dalla ricca decorazione pittorica demolito in età tardo rinascimentale per la realizzazione della chiesa attuale. / The excavation of the church of Santa Maria Maggiore allowed us to gain important information on the history of the city of Trento during the Late Antiquity and the process of Christianization. The first church, of the second half of Vth century AD, stands on a previous thermal structure built around the IInd century AD and is characterized by a strong monumental character. The church, with three naves, presented a raised presbytery, decorated (during the first phase) with an opus sectile then replaced in the VIth century by a polychrome mosaic. Were also found major parts of the architectural decoration of late VIIIth century, belonging to this same system, which won't be significantly modified until the completion of the subsequent medieval religious building, much less extensive and with less monumental aspect, characterized by the presence of an extensive cemetery found at north of the church. The third structural phase, organized in two naves, had rich fresco decorations, and was demolished in the Late Renaissance to build the present church.
