Manipulation with history in historical Otakar Vávra's movies focusing on the trilogy Dny zrady, Sokolovo a Osvobození Prahy
Hodura, Pavel ; Knapík, Jiří (advisor) ; Štoll, Martin (referee)
This thesis deals with the manipulation of history in the historical film trilogy Dny zrady, Sokolovo and Osvobození Prahy, directed by Otakar Vávra. This thesis tries to define, on the basis of a comparation of historiographical works of the communist and modern historiography, the amount of historical distortion presented in these films. The normalization regime endeavoured to revise the historical knowledge of the second half of the 60s and to resume the tendencies of the communist regime of the late 40s and 50s and attempted to create a myth of perception of mordern national history, in which the positive influence of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia in the 30s and 40s was emphasized. Moreover, this myth of the perception of history aimed to discredite figures that were unwanted by the regime and to emphasize friendship with the Soviet Union. Films and tv-series were an appropriate tool to form the perception of history among the people.

The hermeneutic analysis covers various aspects of propaganda, including the cult of personality, celebration of labour, the role of armed forces and other phenomena of the early Communist period in Czechoslovakia.

Jiříková, Eliška ; Bednařík, Petr (advisor) ; Knapík, Jiří (referee)
In my bachelor thesis I deal with an analysis of the Nuremberg trial and judicial proceedings with protectorate government in the Czech press from October 1945 until October 1946. First I try to explain and describe the way to the Nuremberg trial and approximate the accused ones using professional literature. I did the same with the judicial proceedings with protectorate government. In this bachelor thesis I describe the most important acts for a rise of a tribunal in Nuremberg. I derive a description of a statute of a court and points of indictment from the professional literature. The process is described in articles from a period printing and the information is folded by the professional literature. I choose the same procedure and style in the second part of my bachelor thesis with the process with the protectorate government. The aim of my thesis is to analyze articles in the periodic press - Rudé Právo, Svobodné slovo, Lidová demokracie, Právo lidu, to compare a prejudice, style and a form of informing of an individual press

The Atheization Policy of the Czechoslovak Republic from the End of 1940s to the Mid-1950s Illustrated on the Example of the Historical Regional Media
Muroň, Filip ; Köpplová, Barbara (advisor) ; Knapík, Jiří (referee)
The diploma thesis entitled The Atheization Policy of the Czechoslovak Republic from the End of 1940s to the Mid-1950s Illustrated on the Example of the Historical Regional Media introduces to the reader how Marxist-Leninist ideologies approached the topic of atheism and the process of atheization, and how they presented this worldview to the popular masses. The reader will also learn about the region of Teschen Silesia (where the research is based), its media and the media system established in Czechoslovakia at the time under discussion. The work also reflects on the post-war rise of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia and its coup in 1948. The practical part of the thesis then reflects how the editors of the selected media (the widely available regional daily Nová svoboda, the newspaper of the Polish minority Głos Ludu and the company magazine Třinecký hutník) published topics that were supposed to lead their readers to secularization from 1948 to 1952. However, it is clear from the conclusions of the individual editions that the promotion of scientific atheism had minimal space, and the editors focused primarily on international, domestic social and political events. As time went on, however, even these contributions dwindled. Judicial monster trials of inconvenient clerics were also...
Communication of Science in the 19th Century with Regard to the Work of J.E. Purkyně
Fišerová, Ivana ; Soukup, Martin (advisor) ; Knapík, Jiří (referee)
The diploma thesis "Communication of Science in the 19th Century with Regard to the Work of Jan Evangelista Purkyně" maps the development of communication of science during the Czech National Revival and proves the enormous role of science in the development of society, language, culture and politics. The work pays special attention to one of the greatest revivalists of this time, Jan Evangelist Purkyně, who had a huge influence on the formation of today's scientific society. The first part presents the theoretical basis of science communication, which serves as evidence of its influence on emancipation processes in the Czech lands in the 19th century. That means the overall context, then the biography and contribution of Jan Evangelista Purkyně, the development of Czech science, which is important for understanding this area, and finally the first Czech scientific journals, whose founder, or at least a partial initiator of their establishment, was Purkyně. The second part of the work is empirical and analyzes the editorials of the first period of publishing the scientific journal Živa in the years 1853-1867, ie during the leadership of Purkyně and Krejčí. With a qualitative content analysis, a political subtext and a challenging publishing activity in these years is illustrated there.
