Learning outcomes

The development of monument care from the first manifestations of respect for historical and artistic works of the past to the current situation. After an introductory presentation of selected examples of a sensitive approach or relationship to artefacts of the past before the first legislative instruments for the protection of monuments, attention is paid in particular to the development of the principles of the protection of monuments of the 19th and 20th centuries, including the establishment and scope of the Vienna K.k Commision for the Preservation and Retrieval of Building Monuments. The concepts of the approach to monuments in the theoretical works and practical realizations of leading figures in the field (E. E. Viollet le Duc, J. Ruskin, A. Riegl, G. G. Dehio, M. Dvořák, Z. Wirth, V. Wagner) with a focus on the Central European environment. The unfortunate regional specifics of the North Bohemian region after World War II and their consequences are also mentioned, including film documentaries on the subject. Finally, a description of the current legislation on monuments in the Czech Republic and the functioning of professional organizations and executive bodies of state monument care is given. There is also a comparison with the systems of monument care in selected European countries, including information on contributory stimulation of owners of monuments and some current problems in the field.
On the basic of the acquired knowledge, the graduate has arguments in favour of the meaning and existence of the field of conservation, including comparative practical examples. The student acquires and idea of the ideological concepts of the most important theoreticians and personalities of conservation (A. Riegl, G. G. Dehio, M. Dvořák, Z. Wirth, V. Wagner) on the basis of acquaintance with their key works (or their translations or extracts from them) and is familiar with the basic sources and literature on the development of state conservation in the territory of our country in the 20th century. He is also familiar with the basic principles of the current State Heritage Care Act (including cimparison with similar principles in selected Western European countries). (S)he thus acquires a basic awareness of the development of the values of the monument in historical retrospect and thus the creation of the basis for the gradual social anchoring and development of the autonomy of the field of conservation as an applied discipline linked to a wide range of other social science disciplines. It is also about some current topics of the field as a still minimally exploited historical phenomenon, especially of the 20th century period (actual on a regonal scale for the so-called mining area of the Podkrušnohoří region).
