The Reflection of the First Czechoslovak Republic and Its President T. G. Masaryk on the Pages of Vatican Daily Newspaper L´Osservatore Romano
TALÍŘ, František
The aim of this diploma thesis is to expound the reality of the first Czechoslovak Republic through the foreign point of view, more precisely through the Vatican daily newspaper L´Osservatore Romano. Since the reality is immensely complex, individual chapters deal with topics of overall political development´s reflection, the personality of the first Czechoslovak president Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk and the situation of Catholic Church in the country from the perspective of Vatican press. Due to the influence of reporters´ Catholic orientation, the author used other journals and documents to achieve higher levels of the opinion plurality in the particular questions. For this purpose, he worked in his thesis with other Czech and Italian newspapers, pastoral letters which were written by Czechoslovak bishops, memories of contemporary events´ actors or different interviews and speeches of important political figures at the time. In the analysis, there is an attempt to answer the question of how the Holy See´s official periodical informed of the events in interwar Czechoslovakia.

Development of diplomatic relations amongst the Czech Republic and the Vatican
Kristek, Tomáš ; Veselý, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Šauer, Jaroslav (referee)
Diplomatic relations amongst the Czech republic and the Vatican have been formed since 1918. We study various circumstances which affect the process of shaping in the historical context and on the basis of liberal-idealistic and realistic theories. In this Bachelor work we will concern with factors which influence mutual relation of state and church in the perspective of international relations and in various specific significant moments. This reciprocal relation amongst state and church is not estabilished amongst two states, but also amogst state and international organisation, which is represented by the Pope, the head of the Church and of the Holy See. From the point of view of the mutual agreement every partner enters in this agreement with own demands and needs, which in the case of the papal diplomacy, these demands aren´t always in consensus with the diplomacy of the state. The Czech republic and the Holy See are democracies and such deal with problems in the diplomatic way, even though the consensus is not always possible.
