The main role of the loyal Stalinist historians in Central and Eastern Europe consisted in accepting of the Marxist-Leninist methodology by Soviet historians and in creating an image of history, which would re-interpret the national history in spirit of Marxism. This new interpretation has been presented mainly in university textbooks and historical journals. The paper focuses on the privileged status of "national traditions" in the Marxist historiography in relation to the age.
