Learning outcomes
The main goal of the subject is to make a deeper meeting with regional history as an integral part of historical sciences. We pay attention to specific sources which can be used for the study of regional history, we present types of regional historical workplaces. As the development of historical work in border areas of Czech countries is distinctive, we also take into considetarion the basic overview of Czech-German or Sudeten German historiography.
The students will get the basic overview of the problematic of regional history which they can use in future in their own regional historical work.
