Abstracts

EN

The paper focuses on Slovak studies and Slovak linguistic research at the second largest state university in Bulgaria – St. Cyril and St. Methodius University of Veliko Tarnovo (VTU). The history and traditions of Slovak language and literature teaching are presented. The first Slovak language lectureship at VTU was founded in the academic year 1978/1979. The paper gives a brief overview of contemporary educational programs in Slovak studies at the university. Attention is drawn to some specifics and tendencies in Slovak language teaching in Bulgaria and to Bulgarians. The paper presents the academic research and linguistic publication activities of the Slovak colleagues at the Department of Slavic Studies at the Faculty of Modern Languages of the University of St. Cyril and Methodius in Veliko Tarnovo for the period 2017 – 2023. Finally, the paper outlines some challenges faced by contemporary university Slavic studies. One of the solutions for increasing the interest towards Slavic languages, including Slovak, are interdisciplinary educational programs with flexible curricula, and also collaboration with foreign universities, cultural institutions, diplomatic missions and employers.
