Mláka, David ; Michela, Miroslav (advisor) ; Šedivý, Ivan (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to analyze the relationships between allied nations Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia in years 1918 and 1938 from the perspective of selected commemorative acts. The main aim of this thesis is to define the role of the 48th Infantry Regiment in these celebrations. This Thesis is based on the hypothesis that through its honorary title "Jugoslavia" was created symbolic function of the regiment, which was strengthened mutual friendly relationships between Czechoslovakia and the Kingdom of SHS. My thesis statement is not chronologically limited on the years 1918 and 1938 because the "seed" was planted before the founding of the independent countries. The thesis examines relationships between Czechs and South Slavs before and during 1st World War, focusing on the relationships and short history of 102nd Infantry Regiment "Potiorek", which has been precursor of the 48th Infantry Regiment "Jugoslavia". Keys words: 1st World War, recollection, holidays, celebrations, collective memory, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, France, Little Entente, 48th Infantry Regiment "Jugoslavia", 102nd Infantry Regiment, Benešov u Prahy.

Mláka, David ; Randák, Jan (advisor) ; Michela, Miroslav (referee)
The subject of this thesis is to trace the existence of a legionary myth in various media resources from the years between 1918-1938. In the introduction of this thesis I will be talking about situation in September 1938 and new Government appointment, led by Gen. Jan Syrovy, a former legionary. At the same time I will try to describe origins of the Czechoslovak army in Russia, France and Italy. As addition there is a chapter about foundation of the Czechoslovak Republic and its need to defend borders against aggression of Poland and Hungary. Next part is a comparison of the novels written by Jaroslav Hasek and Gen. Rudolf Medek. Also there is an analysis of movie epic Zborov. I would like to conclude this thesis with a chapter about the Castle guard,the organizational structure and the tomb of the Unknown soldier.
