- Description:
- This study analyzes celebrations of presidents’ birthdays in interwar Czechoslovakia. The authors discuss the formative role of the holidays within the framework of the construction of Czechoslovak national identity. They focus on new forms of the celebrations and discuss how the earlier pattern of Emperor Francis Joseph Festivities were employed in republican festivities. The authors deal with political negotiations of festival regulations and codes as well as their implementation in practice. They analyze which narratives were employed for the image of the president and the presidency in general. They also illuminate how first Czechoslovak president Tomáš G. Masaryk’s birthday was commemorated after his abdication and particularly after his death, and how the festivity was changed after Edvard Beneš became president. and Článek zahrnuje poznámkový aparát pod čarou
