T. G. Masaryk's relations with Jews
Borovcová, Gabriela ; Pavlovská, Zuzana (advisor) ; Biernot, David (referee)
1 SUMMARY In my thesis I have attempted to describe and assess Masaryk's attitude to the Jews and to judaism. I have strived to describe the reality as objectively as possible basing on historical and secondary sources. Masaryk's attitude to the Jews must have gone through a certain personal development; however, it does not show many turns. His childhood was influenced by the anti-Semitism of that age. In Masaryk's case, anti-Semitism was connected especially to his mother who was prejudiced this way and who naturally influenced him. In my opinion, Masaryk's attitude to anti-Semitism became nevertheless defined during his maturing. The teenage and adult Masaryk definitely cannot be marked as an anti-Semite. However, he cannot be called a philo-Semite, either. Masaryk was a real democrat and a proponent of civil society, i.e. of a world where there is no place for any prejudice of the estates. As such he was necessarily egalitarian towards the Jews, too, who he understood in a very modern way as a nationality. Masaryk saw the Jews as humans first of all, only then as a nationality, a nation or a religious group. The scientific character of his attitude manifests itself also in the Hilsner case where Masaryk attempts by all means to disprove the ritual murder theory.

Rotkovská, Johana ; Šerák, Michal (advisor) ; Kopecký, Martin (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the analysis of the institutional national educational activities in the first Czechoslovak Republic (1918-1938). The activity of the institutions is reflected in such a way that their tradition is taken into consideration, reaching mostly to the half of the 19th century, the period in which the Czech lands were part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Essential political, economical and cultural society changes were co-determining the form of the educational activities. Newly designed laws subjected the educational work to standards and rules. A state guaranteed national educational system originated next to the traditional associations on voluntary basis. The relationship between the associational activities and the state national educational system in the years 1918-1938 is delimited , based on the resources available, both historical and modern. The main common points of and differences among the parallel national education systems in the first Czechoslovak Republic are identified in this work.
