Lehetová, Lucie ; Groman, Martin (advisor) ; Cebe, Jan (referee)
The thesis focuses on the depiction of events in Czech history and how they were portrayed by communist propaganda in the 1950s and 1970s in selected Czechoslovak media. The theoretical part focuses on the basic concepts related to propaganda, and the specifics of communist propaganda in Czechoslovakia are examined, including the cult of personality, classes and class struggle. Czechoslovak media - daily press, radio, television, film - are analyzed, and teaching is also included. Based on defined parameters, seven relevant historical events are selected and described in detail. The practical part is an assessment of the development of propaganda of the selected events in the 1950s and 1970s. The findings suggest that propaganda strategies have changed over time, but certain elements remain constant. The results show that in the 1950s the emphasis was on fear and reinforcing the party's will, while in the 1970s propaganda efforts became routine. The discussion then opens up the possibility of further exploration of the issues, including the inclusion of radio and television, as well as comparisons of other relevant periods.
