Once upon a time in November… : a small historiographic reflection on the memoirs of the students from the 1989 Velvet revolution in the context of the Czech contemporary history and collective memory of the Czech society

• Languages of publication: CS

Abstracts

EN

The article tries to summarise the forms and uses of memory writings (such as published personal diaries or memoirs), which have been written or „orally shared“ (in the case of oral history interviews) by former Velvet Revolution protagonists, university students in former Czechoslovakia. The author of this article tries to analyse and interpret them in the wide historical and historiographic context. The main aim is to assess, how these memory sources (and „student narratives“) are appropriated by „general“ Czech contemporary historiography and how they can also influence the „general“ collective memory of the Velvet Revolution in contemporary Czech society.
