Elements of Propaganda in the Image of the Chernobyl Disaster in Czechoslovak Press
Vladyka, Tomáš ; Suk, Pavel (advisor) ; Cebe, Jan (referee)
On 26 April 1986, the worst nuclear accident in human history took place at Chernobyl in Ukraine. In addition to the massive loss of human lifes (it is estimated that hundreds of thousands of people died indirectly as a result of radiation), the accident had devastating effects on nature far and wide. In the first part of my thesis, I use literature to describe the reality of how the accident actually occurred and what its consequences were. Then, through an analysis of articles in the Czechoslovak press of the time (Rudé právo - the central daily of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia; Týdeník aktualit - published in Czechoslovakia by the Soviet Novosti Press Agency), I present a comprehensive picture of how the Chernobyl accident was presented to Czechoslovak readers in comparison with reality. The depiction of the accident is also examined in contemporary Czechoslovak television coverage. In order to compare the depiction of the accident in the West, I further analyze articles in The New York Times. Part of the thesis also focuses on an examination of the archival holdings of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia to refute or confirm the hypothesis that there is evidence of instructions to journalists on how they should write about the crash.

Deutschová, Kristýna ; Kučera, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Konrád, Ota (referee)
Between the German speaking population in the territory of Czechoslovakia, in years 1938 to 1945, was a group of people who were against the Nazi politics and who showed their will to defend the Czechoslovak country. Many of them participated actively too, mainly through foreign resistance, and a lot of them were imprisoned in concentration camps or even condemned to death. This bachelor thesis is about German anti-fascists in Czechoslovakia after the year 1945 and it partially focuses on the area of Carlsbad. After the definition of problematic concept anti-fascism and foreshadowing the position of anti-fascists in Czechoslovakia after the signature of the Munich Agreement, there is a description in individual chapters that are describing the development of the situation of German anti-fascist in the territory of Czechoslovakia after the World War II and conditions that were in place when the anti-fascist transports were leaving the country. In the last part of the thesis there is an outline describing the development of a situation of German anti-fascists in the area of Carlsbad. This thesis is trying to examine the development of a situation of German anti-fascist, in continuity with other parts of the land, and to define incidental differences.

This diploma thesis primarily deals with the reviews of Czechoslovak television series in the weekly print Tvorba, central press organ of Communist Party of Czechoslovakia, in the normalisation period of 70's and 80's. In the second place, it also deals with other relevant articles that are somehow related to the television series issues in general. Additionally, it pays attention to formal aspects of the reviews studied in the thesis (language specifics, form, space and development of the television reviews section etc.) The thesis is divided into two main parts: theoretical and analytical. The theoretical part brings information about the cultural-political weekly print Tvorba, it outlines social and historical context of the period traditionally called normalisation and last but not least gives theoretical background about the phenomenon of Czechoslovak television series. The analytical part works directly with the reviews found and also other relevant articles from Tvorba. On the basis of these particular reviews and articles, the main aim is to describe ideas and opinions of cultural editors and reviewers on the form, art rendering and role of television series as a specific genre of television production and, at the same time, to bring an overview of what aspects were on the reviewed series...
