| Abstrakt čj: Cílem této práce je shromáždit královské reliéfy pojednávající o cizincích z různých míst tehdejšího starověkého Egypta a prozkoumat jednotlivé aspekty zobrazování cizinců a roli cizinců v dekorativním programu, královské propagandě nebo v rámci víry. Vzhledem k charakteru práce budou zpracovány pouze nástěnné a skalní reliéfy. V rámci výzkumu pak bude kladen důraz na: témata jednotlivých vyobrazení, etnické aspekty cizinců (pokud jsou vyobrazeny), toponyma, zapojení bohů a bohyní, provázanosti s dalšími scénami v okolí uvažovaných reliéfů a jejich umístění v rámci pohřebních komplexů nebo v rámci celého Egypta (v případě skalních reliéfů). Časovým rozpětím výzkumu je Stará říše (cca 2592–2120 př. n. l.).
Abstrakt aj: The present thesis aim is to collect royal reliefs dealing with foreigners from various locations throughout Ancient Egypt and examine separate aspects of depiction of foreigners and the role foreigners played in decorative program, royal propaganda or belief system. Due to the nature of the study only wall and rock reliefs will be processed. Within the research focus will be laid on: topics of reliefs, ethnical aspects (if depicted), toponyms, gods and goddesses involved, interconnection to other scenes in proximity and their location within the mortuary complex or the whole Egypt (in case of rock reliefs). The timespan of research is the Old Kingdom (ca. 2592–2120 BC). |
