Egrová, Miroslava ; Woitschová, Klára (advisor) ; Jůn, Libor (referee)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to present the complicated process of connecting the Náprstek Museum to the National Museum lasting the entire period of the first Czechoslovak Republic. In this process, both the political representations of their time and, above all, the very sophisticated contemporary relations of the Provincial Office as the executive body of the Czech country and the then cultural institutions, regardless of whether they were already owned by the province, state or private, played a significant role. The bachelor thesis also deals with the establishment of both institutions and their condition and problems before entering the new state. For a comprehensive view, the bachelor thesis also summarizes the development of the Náprstek Museum after 1938.

The bachelor's thesis draws mainly from the collections of the Archives of the National Museum and the National Archives and previously published literature, unfortunately not rich. Keywords The National Museum, The Náprstek Museum of Asian, African and American Cultures, administration, land...

He worked as a scientist for more than fifty years. He was well known abroad and represented the Czech Kingdom in a perfect way. His family was one of the most important families of Czech history. Jan Palacký was not as successful a politician - as his father František Palacký or his brother-in-law František Ladislav Rieger. He could not keep the family property which he lost as a result of the failed Chabrus elections in 1872. The aim of this thesis is to map the life of Jan Palacký in his life roles through this new perspective and using unused sources to point out Palacký's personal national identity. The focus of the thesis is the analysis of sources relating to Jan Palacký.
