(Jiří Knapík – Martin Franc, Czech Science Foundation, 2006-2008)
The aim of the project is to contribute to the knowledge of life in Czech society in the years 1948-1967 in such a form that was hitherto absent in our historiography, unlike historiography abroad. Its aim is to be an original encyclopaedic work intercepting cultural life and lifestyle in Communist Czechoslovakia, with appropriate differentiation, including ideological or propagandist clichés, being made. Each heading shall comprise a factual part and an evaluative one (cultural, educational and propagandist campaigns; congresses and meetings of cultural associations; current concepts). The headings should enable the reader to grasp the issue dealt with inside, with arrows referring to related headings. The originality of the headings is stressed. This will be provided by means of basic archival research and extensive selection of the printed sources. A voluminous case study will introduce the work. The study will point to reality in society and politics in post-February life and bring up themes that might be considered as overlapping from the perspective of the general concept, or, on the other hand, as profiling. Spreadsheet surveys, pictorial annexes, and an extensive list of both domestic and foreign source literature will complete the work to have it serve the professional public and to act as an aid for grammar schools and universities.
