Malinová, Irina ; Lendělová, Věra (advisor) ; Lemeškin, Ilja (referee) ; Otčenášek, Jaroslav (referee)
This thesis aims to analyze the forms and ways of presentation of the cultural heritage of the chosen ethnic group, Ruthenians, by introducing the Skejusan ensemble. The work has the form of a case study and deals with the ensemble including the characteristics of its repertoire - songs, national customs and traditions. The ensemble is important for its endeavour to preserve only the Ruthenian folklore in a conservative way (unlike other Ruthenian ensembles in the Czech Republic). In this way, the interpretation of folklore does not include only isolated songs, but takes into account also the original context, in which the songs had existed in the culture. The thesis contributes by its research and its conclusions to the discussion about the problems of Ruthenian national minority, tries to characterize the complicated national identity of the Ruthenians in the multicultural milieu of the Czech Republic, and defines also the influence of this milieu on the Ruthenian culture. The work also deals with the history of migration of relatively small group of so-called Skejus Ruthenians, it analyzes and clarifies the historic route of transmission of traditions and customs during their migration from Slovakia to Romania and their subsequent movement from Romania to Czech Lands. The work also compares...

National consciousness of Southern-Carpathian dialect speakers in the Slovak-Ukrainian border area
Vašíček, Michal
This paper aims to analyze the current national identification of East-Slavic dialect speakers in Slovakia and compare it with the national attitudes of Slavic inhabitants on the territory of the Transcarpathian region of Ukraine. Among the representatives of East-Slavic ethnic group in the Slovak Republic the ethnonym Rusnak predominates, while in Ukraine the majority of informants consider themselves to be Ukrainians or Rusyns. Seventy-year existence of the political border between Czechoslovakia and USSR and then between Slovakia and Ukraine has greatly influenced not only the development of the local East-Slavic dialects, but also the national consciousness of their speakers.
