Sklenář, Michal ; Pullmann, Michal (advisor) ; Cuhra, Jaroslav (referee)
8 Abstract The thesis follows history of the Roman Catholic Church in Czechoslovakia in the 50's of the 20th century. It aims for a micro-historical approach to the problematics. The example of Václav Boštík, dean in Ústí nad Orlicí in years 1934 - 1942 and again in 1945 - 1961, captures both everyday life of the Church in the Stalin and Post-Stalin Era of the Czechoslovakian history and the strategies for survival in this very difficult time of the Church. The work analyzes situations, in which dean Boštík found himself in the 50's, and the decisions he chose or was made to choose. According to what measures he decided? When was he ready for compromise with the Communist Party and, on the contrary, when he stood firm on his opinions? How did his attitudes influenced the life of his parish? When was a conflict between parishioners and the Communist Party unavoidable and, on the other hand, when interests happened to concourse and a mutual coexistence was possible? Why did not revocation of dean Boštík come until 1961? Key words 20th century, History of Communism, Roman Catholic Church, Ústí nad Orlicí, Václav Boštík (1897 - 1963)
