The poet Karel Hynek Mácha (1810-1836) was intensively occupied, from his university days, with Czech history, and he chose themes from Czech history in his poetical and prose works. His view of history was partly formed by his reading of the older historical sources (Hájek’s Czech Chronicles), and partly by his reading of commonly available handbooks interpreting history in the spirit of Catholic-dynasticism. A basic shift in Mácha’s conception of Czech history occurred in mid-1833 when the poet became acquainted with the almanach Mephistopheles, which was published in Leipzig by the German-language journalist and author of historical novels with Czech themes, the Prague-born Karl Herloszsohn Herlo (1802-1849). Herlo in the almanach challenged Czechs to stop believing the interpretation of history which was presented to them by official Austrian historiography, and to start to take seriously their own heroes, especially figures of Hussitism and the Czech Reformation. Mácha’s scholars have already shown the influence of Herloszsohn’s almanach on Mácha’s poetical work. The present study investigates the influence of this source on Mácha’s prose work, that is on his unfinished novel The Executioner (Kat), especially on the only part that was published in Mácha’s lifetime entitled Křivoklad. In the concluding part of the study the relation of Mácha’s worldview to Platonism is characterised.

The study analyses the Czech Television series Bohéma from the perspective of a historian and draws attention to the issue of its genre with an unclear definition. The production follows on a thin boundary line between the trashy, fiction with a historical background, and a work of history, posing a challenge to a historian and asking questions about our relation to historical memory and its instrumentation.

Memory in words: On the inadequacy of terms (A Czech-Polish-German example)This article is devoted to the inadequacy of the Polish and Czech terminology related to the displacement of German-speaking communities after 1945. Discussing the example of the terms “Sudety” and “pohraničí” (Borderlands), the author identifies the inadequacy of various equivalents of these concepts in Polish secondary literature. The adopted methodology makes it possible to demonstrate a particular historical entanglement of the term “Sudety” and its incompatibility with metadiscourse (the language of research). The terminological analysis is the starting point for describing the memory of the historical situation in the Czech pohraničí after 1945. The study analyses material collected during interviews with the residents of pohraničí, including their own reflections on terminological issues. Pamięć w słowach – o nieadekwatności pojęć (przypadek czesko-polsko-niemiecki)Artykuł poświęcony jest nieadekwatności terminologii dotyczącej wysiedleń społeczności niemieckojęzycznych po roku 1945 w językach polskim i czeskim. Autorka na przykładzie pojęć „Sudety” i „pohraničí” wskazuje na nieadekwatność różnych istniejących w polskiej literaturze przedmiotu ekwiwalentów tych pojęć. Przyjęta przez autorkę metodologia pozwala na wykazanie szczególnego uwikłania historycznego terminu „Sudety” i jego nieprzystawalność do metadyskursu, jakim jest język badawczy. Analiza terminologiczna stanowi punkt wyjścia do opisu pamięci o sytuacji historycznej na czeskim pohraničí po 1945 roku. Materiał do analiz stanowią wywiady z mieszkańcami pohraničí i znajdujące się w nich prowadzone przez samych rozmówców refleksje terminologiczne.

Th is study focuses upon the topic of the formation of an image of the Czech nation in the United States of America during the 19th century and at the beginning of the 20th century. This process was hindered not merely by the geographical distance, small numbers of the Czech speaking populace and the absence of an independent Czech state but also by the polysemy of the term “Bohemian”, which was commonly used in the American environment to refer to Czechs. The principal role in the process under research was played by the direct interaction of American society with the Czech emigrant community. Yet, even on the threshold of the 20th century, the sense of familiarity with the Czech ethnic group within the USA remained problematic and, in fact, was restricted regionally with regard to the distribution of Czech immigration. Despite more information becoming available and the signifi cant importance of Czech immigrants in some regions, there did not emerge a specifi c national stereotype of a Czech person, and Czech nationality was included in broader categories.

In this paper I offer an analysis of works by Czech author Vlastimil Vondruška famous for his popular criminal stories and novels with historical background framed by a debate on populism and the rise of iliberal political trends in central Europe. My point of interest is the way how can an author who explicitly expresses populist notion of people vs. elites distinction use the academic authority and expertise respectively. Analysing Vondruška’s both fiction and his non-fiction books I trace the contradictory position that he advocates. On one side he criticizes academics and academia in general as a corrupted field that is pushed only by pecuniary and selfish motivations. On the other side he uses scientific and expert authority in case of his characters and his public activity to comment on topical issues. I argue that this contradiction is not only caused by false use of arguments and facts but that it is a case of the liar’s paradox, which I believe is a major attribute of populist discourse. In the conclusion, I discuss how historians have responded to Vondruška’s wide popularity in Czech public both as an author of fiction and as a commentator using historical analogies. I argue that it is not enough to merely criticize false arguments and misleading facts, nor it is sufficient to argue against the values and beliefs that they advocate. I believe that we need to change our understanding of relation between science and society from linear paradigm of “popular science” to more complex, participatory conception of socially engaged science that can address the populist challenges we face today

Four texts are presented, predominantly literary ones, that canal so be studied as historical sources. They are Václav Černý’s Paměti, especially its second volume called Křik / Pláč koruny české, Ladislav Jehlička’s Křik koruny svatováclavské, Jan Zahradníček’s Pláč koruny svatováclavské and Jakub Arbes’ Pláč koruny české neboli Perzekuce lidu českého v letech 1868–1873. The main aim of the study is to find and describe their common features and their close relation to history.

The article analyses the style of two picture series dealing with Czech history. The analysis focuses primarily on the way of mediating historical knowledge as well as forming and establishing cultural memory in the two series which are compared. In connection with this, the use of language, the construction of meanings and the interplay between verbal and visual components are described.  The picture series investigated represent opposing approaches to the issue of cultural (historical) memory. The objective of Obrázky z českých dějin a pověstí (Pictures from Czech History and Legends; 1980, revised edition 1996) is to depict a traditional version of Czech history and support its adoption by recipients (children being the main target group). Obrázky include various informal, derogatory and anachronistic elements, but these components are used purposefully to attract the interest of recipients in a didactic presentation of historical events. On the other hand, Opráski sčeskí historje (perhaps: Pictures from Czech History; 2014–2015) submit an alternative, subversive, comical and absurd version of Czech history. Their objective is to destruct the traditional view of such history. In order to achieve this effect, Opráskitake advantage of intentional orthographical mistakes (with great invention), play with the language, polysemy of words, anachronisms and intertextual relations to contemporary popular culture.

The article Božena Němcová and the history of her sensual image contains the review of František Novotny’s book Prsten od vévodkyně (2011). The book employs the most recognizable portrait of Božena Němcová painted by Josef Hellich. His painting paraphrase in the shape of imaginary nude (visible on the cover) becomes the reason to present Czech history — since the 19th until the beginning of the 21st century. This piece of work, which constitutes ahybrid combination of detective story and historical fantasy, is an example of revitalization of the subject of history in contemporary literature.

The author considers several texts that have recently been devoted to Masaryk’s book Česká otázka (The Czech Question), but the topic of the article revolves around the more general issue of “the Czech question,” and not the book itself. The intention is to find out what the contemporary forms and pathways are of the intellectual self-reflection on Czech national existence. On the one hand, there is a collection of philosophers and other experts in the humanities who are trying to determine the extent to which Masaryk’s book, dating from the end of the 19th century, is still important for the current state of the Czech nation (and thus “Czech questions”). On the other hand, another focus of the article is a set of twenty reflections on the current state of, and the degree of threat to, the nation’s uniqueness, written by a prominent Czech neurologist who also takes into account the more than century-long debate on the “meaning of Czech history.” Although a comparison of both approaches reveals some similarities in their awareness of a crisis in the current state of the Czech nation, significant differences in methodological starting points soon step into the foreground and from this emerge differences in the conclusions the different approaches reach, differences that touch on the future toward which the nation is maturing.

Autor se zamýšlí nad několika příspěvky, které byly v nedávné době věnovány Masarykově České otázce, ale tématem je „česká otázka“ psaná s malým „č“. Záměrem je zjistit, jaké jsou způsoby a cesty intelektuální sebereflexe české národní existence v současnosti. Na jedné straně stojí sborník filosofů a dalších odborníků humanitního zaměření, kteří se pokoušejí určit, do jaké míry je pro současný stav českého národa (a tedy „české otázky) stále ještě významný Masarykův stejnojmenný spis z konce 19. století. Na druhé straně se předmětem zájmu stává soubor dvaceti zamyšlení nad současným stavem a stupněm ohrožení svébytnosti národa, jehož autorem je významný český neurolog, který svým způsobem rovněž bere v úvahu onu více než století trvající diskusi o „smyslu českých dějin“. Srovnání obou přístupů sice odhaluje některé shody ve vědomí krizovosti současné situace české národní existence, do popředí ale vystupují příznačné odlišnosti v metodologických východiscích a odtud vyplývající rozdíly v závěrech týkajících se národní budoucnosti, ke kterým dospívají.

The study deals with the birth of court research in Czech historical science and on that basis draws attention to the key trends, which are favoured by the traditional linear interpretation of Czech history. It points out the discourses and paradigms through the lens of methodological concepts and narratives, which had a direct impact on the development or background of various research topics.

Funkce cestopisných prvků v kronice Johanna Marignoly

Medievalists frequently approach Johannes Marignola’s Chronicle of Bohemia (Cronica Boemorum) from two distinct angles, as a travelogue and as a historiographical work, and tend to separate these two aspects.This study focuses on an analysis of the functions of the travelogue elements in the chronicle as a whole. Marignola associates the historical narrative of the first and second ages of the world with reflections on his own journey to the East. However, the stylized narrator is in evidence throughout the chronicle, both as a historian and as a witness. With the aid of Old Testament and Gospel quotations, Marignola witnesses the reality of an earthly paradise in the East and the miracle at the court of Charles IV, connecting the narrative of Czech and of world history.
