At the turn of the 40th and 50 of the last century came from Greece to
Czechoslovakia approximately twelve thousand refugees affected by
civil war. They thought then that it is only a temporary stay. But he
soon turned into a temporary retreat second home. The richly
illustrated book junior team of researchers led by prominent Czech
experts in the history of Greece, Konstantinos and Katerina Kralova
Tsivosem, analyzes the personal testimony of five dozen witnesses
three generations. This first-ever collective monograph on the subject
is its pioneering concepts and analysis. In the historical
introduction and twelve thematic studies dealing with their attitudes
towards occupation and civil war. Based on interviews intriguingly
close to the path of emigration and the fate of children, but also the
process of integration and efforts to maintain its own identity. The
book not only moves in the field of history, but also reflects how the
individual perceives himself the role attributed to him and his
surroundings in the historical process and his experiences as
advocates in the broader social context.
