The Roma problems in the Šluknov Hook in the light of archive and journalistic sources. History and Present
SLÁDEČKOVÁ, Jiřina
The aim of this work was to look at gipsies in Sluknov region, not only in terms of archival records, but also contemporary journalistic sources. Our interest was largely focused on the historical events that led to the current view of the majority of the gipsies minority. This, to some extent, a theoretical framework was then applied to the practical part of this work. There was used qualitative research method. Respondents were persons who live in Sluknov region, and to whom the gipsies issue directly affects. Our intention was to see how in a short period of time has changed the perception of maladjusted people, not only within their own experience of the respondents, but also under the influence of the media.
Příbram and its everyday life during the ocupation 1939 - 1945
ŠORFOVÁ, Petra
The task of this diploma thesis is to describe events in years 1939-1945 which took place in Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia and which had also specific impacts on the central-Bohemian town of Příbram. The thesis is based on written sources of information held in State Regional Archive in Příbram, accessible literature and at last but not least memories of personal observers who lived through the war when they were children. In this work I concentrate on the impacts of the war on lives of ordinary people who suffered their personal tragedies and experienced encounters that completely changed their lives. The thesis is divided into 7 chapters. First chapter deals with the history of Příbram beginning with prehistory and finishing with contemporary days. This chapter also mentions Svatá Hora and Březové Hory because these places create an important part of the location. Second chapter describes the situation right before the war and feelings of people towards the declaration of the protectorate. The next chapter talks about the history of Mining Technical University which was a part of the town nearly for 100 years. The university, as well as many other schools of this type, was closed and some of its students were arrested and deported to the concentration camp Sachsenhausen. Fourth charter is about Jewish and Gipsy question which is a quite popular topic even today. Fifth chapter includes description of the atmosphere of everyday life during the war through children´s eyes but also cultural life of the town. Sixth chapter focuses on the period of the great terror after the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich, which influenced also people in Příbram. The last chapter speaks about the fight of Czech people to re-establish the independent state in which people from Příbram and its surroundings participated as well. This chapter also deals with the last fight in the central Europe which took place near the town of Příbram. The thesis combines general context and particular events happening in Příbram and it tries to look closely at the period of the Second World War full of anxiety, worries and hope.
The knowledge of Gypsy culture and traditions in the town Tabor
KOVÁČOVÁ, Silvie
Following from its title, this diploma work discusses Gipsy culture and traditions, especially maps the level of knowledge comparing Gipsy and non-Gipsy inhabitants in the town of Tabor. The choice of the topic proceeds from a widely known fact involving the problematic common life of those too much different groups. Many members of the majority do not have any awareness of Gipsies being a specific group of inhabitants, having their own culture and traditions. On the other hand, the traditional life of the Gipsies has changed at all,rather has declined, especially in the field of language.Both these points of view may play an important role in one another understanding of the Gipsies and the majority. The target of my work was to map the knowledge of the Gipsy culture and traditions by the Gipsy commune and, as well, to map the knowledge of the majority. Within the framework of this, two main hypothesises were determined. The first main hypothesis assumed that the Gipsy commune in Tabor hadn´t known its tradition and culture any more. The second main hypothesis assumed that the majority hadn´t known the Gipsy tradition and culture. These two hypothesises weren´t proved because the decisive part of questioned people( both Gipsy and non-Gipsy) had known at least one element of Gipsy culture and tradition. Another important investigation was made in my work.They are specified in details in the part {\clqq}Discussion`` of my work. In consideration of the fact that nobody has ever occupied with this problem in the area of the town of Tabor, I suppose, that the points of my work may be useful for organizations that provide service for the Gipsy commune in Tabor.To make it possible, I am going to present my work on the web page of the town of Tabor.
