Pauli ad Hebr. XI, 38) 3 4 Introductory Note This year on 12 January 2011, 90 years from the birth of Bishop Dr. Felix Maria Davidek passed away. The Church life from Czechoslovakia during the Communist persecution was related to the figure of Bishop Davidek who found solutions for keeping the Church alive and uncompromised. A small volume with autographs from bishops and priests from that period would be, we believe, a modest tribute to honor his figure and his spiritual succession. H. Exc. Hofrat Dr. Manfred Kierein, Gr. Cr. OBSS opened again his personal archive, offering most of the documents exposed there. Fr. Dr. Mircea Remus Birtz, OBSS wrote a small study and some annexes, trying to introduce the lector on that period. Photographic material was collected too, hoping to increase the records from this booklet. Difficulties in our research were great, the linguistic impediment being a problem (both authors confess that, even if having several ancestors in the Czech Lands, Slovakia, Moravia and Sudet Region, they unfortunately do not speak Czech or Slovak, as some of their forefathers did).

  • A Cultural History of Catholic Nationalism in Slovakia, 1985-1993
    A Cultural History of Catholic Nationalism in Slovakia, 1985-1993 Submitted by Agáta Drelová to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History, September 2015 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. (Signature) ……………………………………………………………………………… 1 ABSTRACT This thesis is about the construction of a nationalised public Catholic culture in Slovakia from 1985 to 1993. At the core of this culture was the assumption that the Catholic Church had always been an integral part of the Slovak nation, her past, her present and her future. The thesis seeks to answer the question of who created this culture during the 1980s and 1990s and how and why they did so. To answer these questions this thesis adopts a cultural approach and explores how this culture was created utilising the concepts of collective memory, symbols and events as its main analytical tools. The data for this analysis include, but are not restricted to, materials produced in relation to various commemorative events and pilgrimages, especially those related to the leading national Catholic symbols: the National Patroness Our Lady of the Seven Sorrows and Saints Cyril and Methodius. The thesis argues that this culture was deliberately constructed from the point of view of many actors.

Chloupek certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Territory, Place, and Identity in Slovak Church-state Conflict: 1948-1989 ________________________________ Dr. Shannon O’Lear - Chairperson Date approved: 7-13-11 ii Abstract This paper focuses on the development and utilization of a conceptual framework for studying religion from a spatial perspective, drawing on themes and methodologies from human geography. The goal of this research is to help reconnect the geography of religion as a subdiscipline with broader themes in the discipline. Through an examination of Catholicism in Slovakia between 1948 and 1989, it examines how the Church utilized and organized geographic space, how it crafted a Catholic sense of place, and how the Communist government in Slovakia competed with the Church for authority and control within these spatial 'realms.' Examining issues of territoriality, power relations, and identity formation at a number of spatial scales, ranging from the local to the international, the paper attempts to show their interrelation. This project draws on a collection of primary documents obtained from state and ecclesiastic archives in Eastern Slovakia.
