Abstracts

EN

The submitted study traces the beginnings of the historiographical treatment of the issue of the so-called Czechoslovak Revolution from 1914–1918 using the example of the contradictory destinies of two Czech historians – Jaroslav Goll and Jaroslav Werstadt. The main attention is focused on the period shortly after the establishment of Czechoslovakia, in which in the atmosphere of the efforts for a so-called “de-Austrianisation“ (Entösterreichern) a confrontation of the different ideas about the role of historical science in relation to society occurred. Attention is paid not only to both above-mentioned men but also to questions related to the problem of intergenerational relations of the members of the Czech historical community and the circumstances of the Archive of National Liberation (or the Liberation Monument) as an institution entrusted with research of contemporary history with a special focus on the period of the First World War.
