Expulsion of German population from the Znojmo region
KUŘÁKOVÁ, Lucie
The bachelor thesis deals with the relations between Czechs and Germans from 1918 until the end of the Second World War. It is a rough outline of the political developments in the Czech territory that influenced these relations. The thesis focuses on the course of Czech-German relations within the national framework and then moves on to the events in the territory of Znojmo. I have included in my work the memories of Czechs who were expelled from the border region after 1938. As a twist, I presented the fate of two gentlemen of German nationality living in Znojmo until the end of the Second World War. In addition to this, I mention the operation of labour camps in Znojmo and the subsequent transport of German citizens.

"My Sudetenland is all around here, my darling": The representation of Sudetenland area in contemporary Czech popular music and other popular culture media
BRTNÍK, Robert
The Bachelor's thesis focuses on the depiction of the border area in contemporary Czech music production. Concepts from the field of remembrance and aesthetics of nature are chosen here as key points for later analysis. The work also focuses on the history of the Sudetenland and Czech-German relations, which influenced the landscape character and perception of this area. In addition, we work here with the geography of the borderlands, but also with the reflection of socio-pathological phenomena often attributed to the Sudetenland. For a more comprehensive understanding of the artistic depiction of the given topic, a comparison of other forms of art (film, comics, literature, and visual media) is also processed here, which is the basis for later musical analysis and at the same time a form of summary or memento of the depiction of the Sudetenland, which for many years was subject to contemporary propaganda. The goal of the work is not only to find out what the musical reflection of the history and present of the Sudetenland looks like through the prism of nature, remembrance, etc., but to ascertain the degree of fetishization of the "dark" sides of the borderland and to come to some sort of compromise between the already established "mysterious" form of this depiction and the reflection of the current state of the Sudetenland, which is often forgotten, even though it is a very large part of our territory.
