The study of modern sources focuses on the development of written sources in the early modern period and their interpretation in relation to both older and more recent history. Territorially, the teaching is based primarily on sources from the territory of the Czech lands or from the wider historical Central European region corresponding to the territorial development of the Czech state. In addition to the general classification, the course also focuses on the historian's own professional work with these sources and their peculiarities. The interpretation includes sources of official provenance from all levels of the country's administration, as well as sources of a personal nature, narrative texts with overlaps into fiction. The emergence of journalism and the development of this genre are also important topics.
