The thesis called "Marvellous Year"- The Life of Evangelical Theologians and Pastors at the Normalisation Period in their own words tries to show an ordinary day of an evangelical theologian and pastor in the 70's and 80's of 20th century based on the participants' biographical narrations. The first chapter treats the state church policy at the normalisation period and there are also mentioned the basic historical data of the Evangelical Church of Bohemian Bretheren and the Comenius Evangelical Theologian Faculty for that period. The following chapter describes the life of evangelical theologians and pastors during the communist regime and it is elaborated on the basis of their present narrations. Unlike the official sources (which automatically do not correspond to the social practice), this way offers more critical view, so it revises the bipolar model of the totalitarian period. The last chapter deals with nowadays presentations of three Evangelical Church of Bohemian Bretheren parsons. It is followed by the analysis of the "marvellous year" dynamics. And this chapter is finished by retrospective memories of the normalisation period in former Czechoslovakia.
