| Description | The contribution focuses on the establishment of a German elementary minority school in the village Roudníky, which was situated in the judicial district of Usti nad Labem. The goal is to map the causes and circumstances of the genesis of this school in the area, which was formed from national point of view by German majority population during the existence of the Czechoslovak Republic. The view is also focused on the consequences of the "struggle" for the German minority school on the Czech-German relations in the region. The starting point of this paper is the Law Metelka, which laid down the structure of minority schools. This law, although was universal for all national minorities living in the former Czechoslovakia in its essence, was mainly perceived as an act directed against the German education system by the German population. So it’s very interesting to observe the efforts of the German population for application of this law in the establishment of their own minority school. Coincidentally, in the same geographical area, where resistance to this law was very strong. To solve this problem we used the methods of historical research. The archival documents were stored in the Town Archives of Usti nad Labem. This were especially the Czech and German school chronicles of the elementary schools in Roudniky, official sources provenance and German-language contemporary periodicals (such as Aussiger Tageszeitung, Aussiger Tagblatt). |
