President Masaryk as an anonymous journalist (1918-1935)
Vašek, Richard ; Kvaček, Robert (advisor) ; Harna, Josef (referee) ; Galandauer, Jan (referee)
This thesis focuses on the literary and journalistic works of Czechoslovakia's first president, Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk - how he attempted to influence public opinion through them and entered into the current disputes on various topics. The main interest of this thesis is his anonymous journalistic output, i.e. articles and commentaries that he wrote under different initials, or were published anonymously. In these writings, Masaryk continued his previous wartime and pre-war activities. After the war, however, they took on completely different proportions since he couldn't remain a purely private person. He was seen primarily as the head of the state. His political function thus began to intersect with his tendency to express his opinions on various topics in public and enter into the current political and cultural arena. Masaryk tried to overcome (or circumvent) this contradiction, which was limited by the formal delimitation of the powers of the president of the republic, by publishing anonymous articles. In these texts he could express hismelf more freely and openly than he could in signed articles or official speeches.

T. G. Masaryk and his journeys to Capri 1921–1922
Vašek, Richard
The contribution focuses on the journeys of president Thomas G. Masaryk to Capri at the beginning of the 1920s. Masaryk suffered from serious health problems in 1921 and therefore it was necessary for him to go abroad to recover. These were also the first trips of Czechoslovak president and they became models (i.e. in organisation) for Masaryk´s other journeys. The contribution deals with the organisation of the journeys and tries to capture day-to-day life at Capri. The influence on Masaryk´s state of health or financial background of the journeys is also mentioned in the text.

Prezident Beneš a pokus o oživení československo-rumunských vztahů v roce 1936
Vašek, Richard
The paper deals with the situation of Little Entente at the second half of the 1930s. As the strength of the Nazi regime grew, so the political and economic penetration of Germany into South-Eastern Europe increased. The occupation of the Rhineland demilitarized zone by German troops in March 1936 and the weak reaction of the Western powers had a significant effect upon the subsequent development of Little Entente relations. The paper is focused on activities of Czechoslovak diplomacy, directed in practice by President Beneš, to bolster mutual relations and bind them more closely to France.
