Abstract
The study deals with the Czech commemorative culture connected to the figure of John Hus. On the example of the novel Husitská epopej by Vlastimil Vondruška and the animated film Husiti by Pavel Koutský, it examines what media strategies of representation they employ in order to strengthen their position in the Czech cultural memory.
The effectiveness of these strategies is verified by users' reviews available in on-line book and film databases.
