Vývoj pohledu českých tištěných médií na československé měnové zlato po druhé světové válce

Abstract

This thesis deals with the issue of the Czechoslovak monetary gold, which concerns our nation since the year 1919, when the first piece of gold appeared in collection for the national treasure. There are described transfers of our national reserves and how they were treated. The aim of this thesis is to find out how were the people informed by the Czech press about the fate of our treasure and what could possibly have influenced the established facts. Articles from the Czech press were searched for in the Archives of the city of Ostrava and the Moravian-Silesian Research Library of Ostrava as well, with a focus on the period after the Second World War to the present. Through the content analysis are examined thirteen selected articles and then the differences and connections are described and eventually the angle of the author’s view is included. Results of this thesis provide a comprehensive view of press’s interest or disinterest to inform readers about the examined issue and they point out at possible influences on the facts we have established. Moreover, thesis contains a journalistic part in which we deal with the question of the presence of valuable coins in the treasure in connection with the topic numismatics in form of various journalistic genres for imaginary magazine The Collector.
