Among the fundamental ideas on which the rise of Slovak national identity was based is the idea of Slavism. In its context, Vajanský promoted his historicist concept of development of Slavism under the Russian domination, which would be in his view a new epoch in the accomplishment as the ideal of humanity. This idea followed Herder’s vision of the historical and cultural mission of the Slavs. Vajanský’s russophilia derived from the political view and ethnical romanticism of Ľ. Štúr as well as from Russian slavianophiles and the panslavism of N. J. Danilevski. Thus the new objective of Vajanský became an alliance of Slavic nations in which the national individuality would be still preserved.
