Depiction of "Bloody Sunday" in the periodical press
Mrázková, Tina ; Bednařík, Petr (advisor) ; Francová, Pavla (referee)
This work analyses newspaper articles concerning the conflict between the catholic and the protestant communities of Northern Ireland and the event of January 30th 1972, which is commonly referred to as the "Bloody Sunday". The work is based on articles released by the Czechoslovak periodical press concerning the period between one month before the Bloody Sunday and one month after the event. This means articles released in January and February of 1972 were concerned. More precisely, articles printed in three national daily newspapers at that time were selected for the analysis: Rudé právo, Mladá fronta and Svobodné slovo. I will focus on how the Communist press reported about the events in Northern Ireland and place it into context with the political situation at that time on both the domestic and international level. An introduction to the regional history of Northern Ireland and a description of the events taking place on January 30th 1972 are a part of this thesis. Furthermore, I also depict how the Czechoslovak press conducted their activities in the 1970s, a period affected by both social and political changes referred to as the Normalisation. The aim of the analysis of the periodical press is manifold. First of all, I present the official stance adopted by the Czechoslovak Communist regime...

Massacre in Lidice and Kľak Valley - comparison of media representation and historical reflection
Jaroš, Martin ; Šafařík, Petr (advisor) ; Dimitrov, Michal (referee)
This thesis analyzes the tendencies in the press of given era and the development of social discussion on burning of Lidice village and Klak and Ostrý Gruň settlements through discourse-historical approach and other sociological concepts. It specifically follows the level of awareness and media content of selected periodicals from the time of the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, the transitional period of the existence of the Slovak State, over 40 years of the communist era, until the renewed or newly created periodicals of the Velvet Revolution, to the present, meant 2017. Usually by decades, always on the anniversary date of the event. The thesis attempts to confirm the hypothesis that sensitive historical events tend to be interpreted with bias, in compliance with the current regime, through (in this case) printed media; were they owned by government, opposition, or even those who are seeking (political) impartiality.
