Integration of non-displaced Germans in Cheb/Egerland from German and Czech perspectives and the occurrence of Germanisms typical for this area
DUŠEK, Vilém
The bachelor thesis attempts to map the then living situation of non-displaced Egerland Germans from the area of the former Egerland in the western Bohemia border region during the process of integration among the newly arrived settlers through the stories and narratives of these non-displaced inhabitants. The first part of the thesis deals with the cultural and historical context of the coexistence of Czechs and Germans in the Czech lands from the arrival of German colonists to the displacement of the German population after World War II. The thesis also introduces the Egerland region from both a cultural and historical-geographical point of view. The last part focuses on 14 non-displaced Egerland inhabitants, presents their narratives about the time when they had to integrate into Czech society, and through these narratives, reveals their attitudes towards the issue of post-war displacement and towards the Czechs' perception of the German-speaking population in the Czech territory from the second half of the 1940s to the present.
