Legislature related to legionnaires and war veterans between 1918 and 1922 - its illustration in parliamentary debates and printed media
Hainzová, Petra ; Štemberk, Jan (advisor) ; Minářová, Markéta (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to analyze post-war legislation related to legionnaires and injured war veterans as it was debated in parliament and reported on in standard media outlets. The analyzed period is from 1918 to 1922. The thesis will also strive to compare the legislatively preferred legions with regular soldiers of the Austro-Hungarian army. Research will be conducted using minutes from parliament's sessions and selected newspapers and magazines. The analysis will show that laws intended for the legions' benefit did not have a great impact in real life and were often not upheld according to parliament sessions and printed media. The difficult circumstances of the legionnaires who arrived back home later than regular troops, did not particularly interest the general population any longer, as the post-war situation was hard for everyone.

Mláka, David ; Randák, Jan (advisor) ; Michela, Miroslav (referee)
The subject of this thesis is to trace the existence of a legionary myth in various media resources from the years between 1918-1938. In the introduction of this thesis I will be talking about situation in September 1938 and new Government appointment, led by Gen. Jan Syrovy, a former legionary. At the same time I will try to describe origins of the Czechoslovak army in Russia, France and Italy. As addition there is a chapter about foundation of the Czechoslovak Republic and its need to defend borders against aggression of Poland and Hungary. Next part is a comparison of the novels written by Jaroslav Hasek and Gen. Rudolf Medek. Also there is an analysis of movie epic Zborov. I would like to conclude this thesis with a chapter about the Castle guard,the organizational structure and the tomb of the Unknown soldier.
