The Onset of Normalisation in the Czechoslovak Television
Slunečková, Karin ; Štoll, Martin (advisor) ; Bednařík, Petr (referee)
This thesis tackles the onset of normalisation in Czechoslovak Television between 1969-1975. Firstly the author introduces the reader to the subject through the historical context. Above all, the thesis focuses on dramatic changes that affected Czechoslovak Television in that era. Further, the thesis is dedicated to one of main players and representatives of normalisation in Czechoslovak media, general director of Czechoslovak Television Jan Zelenka, who remained in office between years 1969 and 1989. The author uses not only published sources, but also internal documents and databases of Czechoslovak Television and documents from the National Archive. In the analytical part of the thesis the author describes the function and structure of Ideological Thematic Plans which served as a foundation document for the TV broadcasting for one year to the next. Using the Ideological Thematic Plan of 1973 the author analyses their content. The author carries out an in-depth analysis of three TV programmes chosen from the Ideological Thematic Plan of 1973. These programmes represent three different genres - a broadcast targeting the young Through Young Eyes (Mladýma očima), a television series of nine episodes Mother (Matka), and a feature film, And Give My Love to the Swallows (…a pozdravuj vlaštovky)....

The TV program of the Czechoslovak television from the year 1968 till April of 1970
Pecáková, Andrea ; Bednařík, Petr (advisor) ; Štoll, Martin (referee)
The thesis titled "The TV program of the Czechoslovak television from the year 1968 till April of 1970" deals with the program offer from the period of so-called Prague Spring until the end of April 1970 when the second transmitter circuit was ready to start. I chose this time period because of frequent changes in politics and society, which was reflected in the media content, and thus in the TV content. This time segment is divided into four time periods in which I monitor the program offer of the TV. The first period is the period of Prague Spring, the second one is from September 1969 to April 1970 when Gustáv Husák became the first secretary of the ÚV KSČ, the third one is from May 1969 to August 1970 when Jan Zelenka became the director of Czechoslovak television (he was considered as the first normalization director) and the fourth period is from September 1969 to April 1970, when the second transmitter circuit was ready to start. The main aims of this thesis are detailed description and comparison of TV offers in these four periods. To achieve the objectives a comparative analysis is used. I analyze mostly weekly magazines Československá televize of the years 1968, 1969 and 1970. The information gained from these magazines is accompanied by other written sources, pictorial records programs...

Vladimír Dvořák and Czechoslovak TV's Entertainment Programms Department over 1968 - 1976
Hroncová, Alexandra ; Klimeš, Ivan (advisor) ; Přádná, Stanislava (referee)
(in English): Vladimír Dvořák (14 May, 1925 - 28 December, 1999) is mainly known to the public as the presenter of Televarieté, a TV entertainment programme, and older generations may also remember him as a music programme presenter and an author of lyrics to pop-music songs of the 1960s. However, this limited perception calls for a correction, as Vladimír Dvořáka was, without exaggeration, a universally talented man. As this text aims to show, Dvořák was strong in fine art and literary disciplines (wrote a number of librettos), as well as on the script-editing, programme presenting and acting sides, and all these artistic talents were sheltered with and maybe even shadowed by his organisational skills (completely unknown to the public) combined with enormous proactivity and high ambitions. During his presence at ČST Vladimír Dvořák created a TV entertainment development strategy that he worked on until his death. He was diplomatic and creative at the same time, and he introduced a number of very successful TV formats to feature many big names, at least those tolerated by the totalitarian regime. Vladimír Dvořák knew how to manoeuvre his way through the clearly demarcated world of communist TV broadcasting without having to make dirty compromises with the regime's officials. Moreover, although he...
