Temples of knowledge had been orphaned: The interventional struggle which was led by representatives of protectorate administration in order to mitigate consequences of the German proceeding against Czech universities in autumn 1939
Borl, Petr ; Čechurová, Jana (advisor) ; Zilynská, Blanka (referee)
The diploma thesis concerns itself with a struggle of the administration of the Protectorate Bohemia and Moravia to deal with the consequences of the German action of 17th November, when as a revenge for previous demonstrations Czech universities in the Protectorate were closed and more than a thousand of their students were arrested and sent to concentration camps in Germany. The thesis is divided into 4 main chapters. The first one concerns itself concisely with reasons, course and immediate consequences of the German "Special action of 17th November 1939". The content of the second chapter is formed by an exposition of a struggle to achieve liberation of the jailed students and their comeback home that was realised by the interventions of the state president Hácha and the Protectorate government at the representatives of the occupation regime; and then an inquest of their tactics and its successfulness at these interventions. A topic of the next chapter is a description and an analysis of the problems accompanying the closure of Czech universities, with which the Protectorate government was also forced to deal. Among them there were for example a placement of the students, who were not jailed but prevented from continuing in their studies and whom the Protectorate government strove to protect...
30 years later - analysis of metaphors of development and transformation of Czech society in the period between 1989-2019
Barták, Tomáš ; Císař, Ondřej (advisor) ; Škvrňák, Michael (referee)
This bachelor's thesis deals with the analysis of metaphors constructed by important actors of the Velvet Revolution and the subsequent period of political and social transformation between 1989-2019 from interviews with two Czech Television programs (Interview ČT24 and Události, komentáře). The aim of the bachelor thesis is to describe the existing variability of discourse and arguments to the followed period from the point of view of important actors in relation to metaphors as a discursive means and to find out what significant events the speakers refer to. The bachelor thesis has an interpretive character and therefore does not test the hypothesis. The theoretical part of the thesis deals with the interpretation of the theory of social transformation and the concept of the so-called catching-up revolutions according to Jürgen Habermas and also with the interpretation of social and political divisions in a democratic society. The thesis then provides an overview of current research knowledge on the interpretation of the discourse on the events of 1989 and the transformation period and their interpretation. In the analytical part of the text, 10 categories of metaphors are explained through the analysis of metaphors and thematic analysis, which frame the observed statements of speakers into...
The Revolution of 1989 in Czechoslovakia - Comparison of Memories in the Czech Republic and Abroad
Crawley, Stephen John Chetwode ; Vaněk, Miroslav (advisor) ; Krátká, Lenka (referee)
This diploma thesis is attempting to analyze the events of November and December 1989 in Czechoslovakia through the eyes of English-speaking witnesses, both at the time and in retrospect, using English language sources. The goal of the thesis is to distill from the analysis notions of freedom and whether there are perceptions of change since 1989. Included in the definition of "freedom" is the means by which it was achieved.
