The Reflection of the Vichy's participation in Shoah in French Cinematography
Rábová, Michaela ; Matějka, Ondřej (advisor) ; Šafařík, Petr (referee)
This bachelor thesis focuses on the difficulties French people meet when dealing with their war history when the Vichy regime collaborated with Nazis on the persecution and deportation of Jewish people. This topic is exclusively examined from the point of view of French cinema between 1945 and 2010. By analyzing the films concentrated on Shoah, the thesis shows the development of portraying Vichy's involvement in the genocide. The main aim is to answer the question on how was this issue shown in French cinema during the second half of the 20th century and to create a new chronology of this topic from 1945 until 2010 based on the analysis of chosen films and secondary literature. The thesis should then approve or disapprove the hypothesis that the intention of French film makers to point out the taboos connected with collaboration and Shoah increased throughout the second half of the last century which was enabled partly by the attitudes of the new post-war generation and partly by the change in the French politics.

The Phenomenon of Ostalgie in the New German Federal States
Vágnerová, Vendula ; Šafařík, Petr (advisor) ; Handl, Vladimír (referee)
This thesis deals with the phenomenon of ostalgie in the new federal states of FRG. This is a specific form of nostalgia for everyday life in the GDR, which became a basis for a retro style, later expanded into many areas of everyday life in Germany. To understand this nostalgia it is necessary to take it into context with the issues that the residents of the new federal states in Germany had to face. Ostalgie was a result of disappointment with the situation in early 90's, and therefore this paper firstly discusses the troubled process of German reunification. The central point of interest of this thesis are the different forms of ostalgie: so-called Ostalgie-Partys, the return of old East German products, Ostalgie on the Internet, its role in German film, so-called Ostalgie-Shows and another forms. The aim is to show that Ostalgie focuses on the culture and the everyday life of the GDR, and does not desire to return its regime. The work also points out the problem of differences between East and West Germans and depicts Ostalgie as a phenomenon that could be a support to German unification, rather than an obstruction.
