This thesis deals with the topic of periodical press in the region of Pardubice during the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. First of all, the thesis introduces the historical context, such as the formation of the Protectorate and other affairs connected with the occupation of the Czech lands by the Nazi Germany. The next part focuses on the system of press control in this era, shedding light on the existence of the legal and illegal press as well. The third part of the thesis is dedicated to the city of Pardubice, particularly to the occupation in this area, the Heydrich Terror and the Silver A resistance activities. The fourth part offers an overview of the newspapers which were published in the region during the occupation, characterizing them and outlining their history. The last chapter provides an insight into the content of the regional press, exploring its subordination to the regime. It analyzes the portrayal of six notable events in two regional newspapers, Východočeský kraj and regional page of Večerní České slovo. These events are the establishment of the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, the celebration of 600th anniversary of Pardubice, the campaign Victoria, the Heydrich Terror, the air strikes on Pardubice by the Allies, and the end of the war.
