title: [Development of internal medicine as a discipline at the Medical School of Masaryk University].
abstract: The lecture presented in extenso at the Conference held to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Medical Faculty, Masaryk University in the assembly hall of the New Townhall in Brno on November 11, 1994 deals with the development of medical disciplines at the Medical Faculty, Masaryk University since the opening of the first general hospital in 1786, where after the foundation of Masaryk University in 1919 the clinics of the Medical Faculty were established. The author mentions the difficult beginnings when the discipline was gradually established, the destruction of equipment during the Second World War after the universities were closed down, the difficult postwar restoration, changes after 1948 and in particular during the "normalization period" in the seventies and subsequent changes after 1989. The author mentions the foundation of different disciplines which are part of internal medicine and the foundation of clinics, as well as the profiles of their leading personalities. Not all the names are given, the main reason being, as Goncourt said, there were too many.
