The relation between manuscript and printed books, their interaction and competition cannot be limited to the 15th century or the beginning of the 16th century. Manuscripts accompanied human activity far into the modern period - not only in official matters but also in the area falling under codicology. The progressing research into the Kroměříž Chateau library, specifically its beginnings associated with the bishop of Olomouc Karl von Liechtenstein-Castelcorno (1624-1695), provides the opportunity to identify and assess the manuscripts that the bishop gathered during his life. His fondness for books has long been known and appreciated, but this seems to have applied only to printed publications, not to manuscripts. At least for the time being, there are no known records of major acquisitions of medieval codices or the establishment of a Kunstkammer (‘wonder room’) containing rare books. This would not have corresponded to his practical nature and focus on solving topical problems of his time (recatholicisation, the restoration of the residential network of bishoprics, the stabilisation and development of economic administration)., Miroslav Myšák., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
Te study focusses on generational transformations in the perception of military service in the period from 1968 through 2004, as an important social phenomenon. Major attention is paid to oral-historical interviews with four contemporaries, or more precisely to the ways of (re)constructing their narrative reflections associated with military service in particular historical decades beginning with the 1970s with the overlap to the new millennium (meaning from the beginning of “normalization” after 1968 to the abolishment of military service in 2004). Besides the importance
of military service, the text focusses on the identification of potential topics from military everyday life and culture of military service soldiers in the context of the conversion from the socialist army to the democratic one, and at the level of constructing the individual and the group identities.
