In our article we focus on the interdisciplinary concept of memory and its use in toponomastic research. The first part of the article focused on the theoretical analysis of the selected concepts of memory used in contemporary humanities and social sciences. We focused mainly on the characteristics and specificities of the concept of memory which is currently used or created in the field of toponomastics. In the second part we present the practical use of this concept in the research of the regional toponymy illustrated on the example of non-standardized (folk) toponymy of three villages in eastern Gemer – Vlachovo, Gočovo, and Nižná Slaná. Thanks to the analysis of the research material with emphasis on three concepts of memory (memory of landscape, language memory, and memory of memorials) and on the toponyms referring specifically to entities that no longer exist, we gain valuable information about the cultural and economic development of the region, as well as about regional peculiarities of the historical development of language. This information is also significant for the formation of the regional identity of the local society.

The paper deals with the use of the interdisciplinary concept of memory (theoretically elaborated mainly in Western European scientific space) in toponomastics. The first part of the paper is theoretical as it is focused on the analysis of the current approaches to the understanding of the term memory in the broader context of various humanities and social sciences as well as in the narrower focus on the sphere of the toponomastic research. The comparison of the presented concepts points to the specifics of perception of the concept of memory in toponomastics which result from the nature of the research subject matter. In the next part, we will present the practical use of this concept in the research of the regional toponymy, shown on the example of unofficial toponymy of three villages in East Gemer – Vlachovo, Gočovo, and Nižná Slaná.

The paper aims to present the results of the scientific research and publication work conducted by the Slovak Language and Communication Department of the Faculty of Arts of Matej Bel University in Banská Bystrica in the last six years, with special emphasis on project activities. In accordance with the above mentioned objective, the paper is divided into several chapters. After a brief introduction to the establishment and long-term scientific research activities of the department, we present the results of research carried out from 2018 to date. The current research activities are mainly conducted in the fields of onomastics, media and environmental communication, linguistic stylistics and pragma-stylistics, cognitive linguistics, language education, translatology and gender linguistics. At the same time, the research work relies on modern research concepts of an interdisciplinary nature (the concept of the linguistic image of the world, linguistic landscape, memory, etc.). In the final part we present the development perspectives for the department scientific research activities in the short- and medium-term.
