History of the Czech(oslovakian) reenacting
Procházka, Filip ; Mücke, Pavel (advisor) ; Urbášek, Pavel (referee)
The goal of this thesis is to do research , as wide as possible, in the most popular part of hobby named reenacting or reenacting (Napoleonic era, Austro-Prussian Wars, American Civil War, Second World War and some new topic - Czechoslovak Peoples Army, Royal Air Force and Czechoslovak Policemen before WW2). Thats mean commemoration and re-enactment of military history and military units in whole its history from time before 1989 to the future. I tried to find grounds of this hobby and describe development of it. As I expected, progress of this hobby or movement is larger, but this hobby existed before 1989 too. Reenactors reenacted and portrayed older conflicts as Napoleonic and Austro-Prussian war. Future reenactors were mainly fencers and tramps. Year 1989 was turning point for all reenactors. Theirs hobby is legal, it is possible to travel, to unite, to ground living history groups, own weapons, speak about all part of our history. It was possible to share and search information, regulation with and in foreign countries, foreigners and archives and museums. Main goal of reenactors is to portray theirs archetypes as good as possible. Public can see not only reconstruction of battles, but open air exhibition - "very interactive museums". This thesis can't be described as "Complete, all history of...
Reenactment and Gender Aspects in the Reconstructions of World War 2 Events
Blažková, Eliška ; Balon, Jan (advisor) ; Tremčinský, Martin (referee)
This research focuses on the Czech community of people interested in World War II, the so-called reenactors. This community focuses on an authentic depiction of the past. In this context, I deal in depth with the gender aspects of the reconstruction of the events of World War II through the reenacting scene. Whether women in the community accept their roles and whether they do not mind returning to the original position that women had in the 1940s. The key is to understand how the members of the reenactment think about the role of man and woman during the Second World War and how they produce this idea to this day in the reenactment scene. The motivations of members to participate and their ideas of the body are also important. This research is based on existing socio-anthropological frameworks. The qualitative method has been used. A total of nine interviews were conducted with members of this group to keep the gender ratio the same. In the end, five men and four women took part in the interviews. Women do not feel limited in their opportunities, when in fact they are limited by their dichotomously divided gender roles. Women, like men, are led to participate by a love of history and a reminder of the merits of men and women who took part in the fighting during World War II.
