Legal Aspects of the changes in theater industry in Czechoslovakia After World War II After World War II (in May 1945), Czechoslovakian theaters were reopened. The so-called theater revolution began, during which the theater industry in Czechoslovakia experienced fundamental changes in organizational structure. Despite the efforts of Austria-Hungary and the First Czechoslovak Republic, this space was still regulated by the Theater Act of November 25, 1850 (Ministry of the Interior law No. 454/1850). There were also plans to consolidate the regulation of the theater industry in Czechoslovakia, as Hungarian legal article XXXI had been in effect since 1848 in Slovakia.

The Development of Economic and Legislative Conditions of Dramatic Writing in Victorian London
Veselá, Zuzana ; SVOBODOVÁ, Doubravka (advisor) ; KYSELOVÁ, Eva (referee)
This bachelor's thesis offers an overview of the economic and legal conditions of playwrights in Victorian London - that is from 1837 to 1901. The thesis focuses on the changes and development of the form and height of authorial remuneration in both West End and East End theatres and the gradual progress of esp. copyright legislation in the United Kingdom. The thesis also describes the nature and workings of censorship as well as the possibility of publishing plays. The thesis is structured into three chapters. The first chapter analyses chiefly the economic notions of the period, the second deals with the legal aspects of the profession with focus on copyright and censorship and the third consists of a case study of playwright Oscar Wilde. I use his example to demonstrate the principles described in the previous two chapters as well as show the gradual development of the status of his profession. The aim of this work is to offer a brief comprehensive overview of the Victorian London theatre scene from the point of view of the playwright.

The Weekly Magazine Tvorba 1946-1948
KREJČÍŘOVÁ, Aneta
This bachelor thesis analyses a weekly communist magazine Tvorba from the year 1946 to the 1948 Czechoslovak coup d'état. Performed analysis is concentrated on the cultural-political articles through which the magazine that was published by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia aimed to discredit its political rivals. In the cultural-political sphere, there were mainly the press campaigns that have been conducted against the Minister of Education and Enlightenment, Jaroslav Stránský, and against the non-communist press. The work is also focused on the articles that in a way express an attitude of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia to the selected cultural and political events in the particular years. Moreover, there is briefly described the development of the periodical press from the First to the Third Republic with the inclusion of the history of the magazine Tvorba.
