Should the fallen be forgotten it is as if they died for the second time. Sepulchral monuments at the Hradec Králové Battlefield of 1866
Kessler, Vojtěch; Šrámek, J.
2019 - Czech Monuments of the Austro-Prussian War have in their overwhelming majority memorial dimension. Thanks to their commemorative character, the monuments survived the year of 1918 and were not deliberately destroyed during the Nazi and Communist totalitarianism. Monuments of the Austro-Prussian War in Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia present a heterogeneous group with its Centre in Hradec Králové. Thanks to them a completely unique set of funerary sculpture and architecture is still in existence until these days. Its uniqueness lies not only in its artistic, memorial and revential basis. For historians monuments of the Austro-Prussian War represent an interesting object in their study of historical memory, its function and impact, as memorials were primarily intended to fix a memory. Pomníky z prusko-rakouské války mají ve své drtivé většině pietní rozměr, ani pruská strana nestavěla na bojištích pomníky, hrdě hlásající přemožení nepřítele. I díky této pietní a komemorativní podstatě přežily pomníky z prusko-rakouské války bez zásadní úhony rok 1918 a nebyly cíleně likvidovány ani v období nacistického protektorátu a komunistického Československa. Památky z prusko-rakouské války, tvořící v Čechách, Moravě i ve Slezsku velmi pestrý celek s logickým těžištěm u Hradce Králové, se tak dochovaly dodnes a představují zcela unikátní soubor funerální plastiky a architektury, jehož výjimečnost je tvořena nejen jeho uměleckou, paměťovou a pietní rovinou, ale právě i stavem dochování. Pro historiky jsou pomníky z prusko-rakouské války zajímavým objektem při studiu historické paměti, jejího fungování a působení, neboť pomníky už ze své podstaty slouží přednostně účelu fixace paměti.

Controlled time: history of time clock
Hlavačka, Milan
2019 - Czech The measurement of time and its practical applications within transport, school and factory structures are civilizational phenomena of primery importance. When we examine the origins of time control we come up against two different worlds: the traditional world of clocks, clockmakers and clock patents on the one hand and the modern world of bureaucracies and factories on the other hand, i. e. the organisation of work in closed space outside of home. Hence this entails an entirely new associations of time and space with social consequences, so the history of time clocks not only involves the history of technocracy, but also civilizational and social history, as well as the history of the elimitation of defects in civilisation, by which is primarily meant the elimination od unpunctuality in the working proces. Time clock came to be seen as the primary disciplinary device in any transatlantic company. Měření času a jeho praktické aplikace v podobě jízdních, školních či továrních řádů jsou civilizační fenomény zcela prvořadého významu. Pří zkoumání geneze kontrolovaného času narazíme na dva odlišné světy: na tradiční svět hodin, hodinářů a hodinových patentů na jedné straně a na moderní byrokratický a tovární svět na straně druhé, tedy na organizaci práce v uzavřených prostorách mimo domov. Jedná se tedy o zcela nové spojení času a prostoru, které má sociální důsledky. Dějiny píchacích hodin jsou tak nejen technokratickými dějinami, ale také civilizačními a sociálními dějinami, respektive dějinami likvidace civilizačních defektů a odchylek, čímž je míněno především odstranění nedochvilnosti v pracovním procesu. Píchací hodiny se staly prvořadým disciplinačním prostředkem transatlantické společnosti.

The Town in Seclusion: the Fortress Chapter in the History of Hradec Králové in the 19th Century
Kessler, Vojtěch; Šrámek, J.
2019 - Czech The liberalisation political-social transformation in the 1860s marked the birth of structures and institutions which in many cases form the framework of civil society up to this day. In the Hapsburg monarchy (including the Czech Lands) at that time, social relationships and connections were formed not only on the state and national level, but also within municipal communities. Working with the example of Hradec Králové, the article focusses on the limiting or, on the contrary, activation frameworks that served for the creation of the social complex of towns, which were simultaneously military objects, i.e., fortresses. Friction grew between military authorities and local government institutions primarily in connection with the gradual decline in the dominant role of the fortress command and, in contrast, the rising confidence of the town government face to face with military events in the Austro-Prussian conflict. Liberalizační politicko-společenská transformace v 60. letech 19. století s sebou přinesla zrod struktur a institucí, které v mnoha případech tvoří rámec občanské společnosti dodnes. V habsburské monarchii a tudíž i v českých zemích se tehdy utvářely společenské vztahy a vazby nejen na státní a národní úrovni, ale i v rámci obecních komunit. V našem příspěvku bychom se rádi na příkladu Hradce Králové zaměřili na omezující, nebo naopak aktivizační rámce, v nichž vznikal sociální komplex měst, která byla současně vojenskými objekty, tj. pevnostmi. Třecí plochy mezi správními kompetencemi vojenské a samosprávné instituce zde získávaly na brizanci zejména v souvislosti s postupným ústupem dominantní role pevnostního velitelství a naopak ziskem sebevědomí městské samosprávy tváří v tvář válečným událostem prusko-rakouského konfliktu.

Potenciál historických vodohospodářských objektů pro turismus
Havlíček, M.; Svoboda, J.; Skokanová, H.; Dzuráková, M.; Pavelková, R.; Vyskočil, Aleš
2019 - English Historic water management facilities may have various uses in the field of tourism. Some water management facilities can be adapted for purposes of board and/or lodging of visitors, which is a common alternative use of former water mills, sawmills or hammermills (workshops for processing of iron by mechanical hammer). A smaller part of water management facilities serves within tourism as attractive goals for visitors, e.g. expositions in old water mills, hammermills, paper mills, sawmills, stamping mills, hydroelectric power plants, waterworks facilities. In addition to the above examples, the preserved water management structures can also become attractive if they become part of hiking and biking trails. These include aqueducts, remains of navigation canals, old wells, preserved and extinct old weirs and dikes. Some water management objects have cultural and historical significance and are protected as cultural monuments. An evaluation of the potential of historic water management facilities in all aspects of tourism was performed in selected river basins in the Czech Republic.
