The article focuses on the reflective-meditative poetry which the Slovak poet Andrej Sládkovič (1820 – 1872) wrote in the 1860s and early 1970s. His three psalmic adaptations (poems Žalm XLIV [Psalm XLIV], Žalm XXI [Psalm XXI] and Žalm III [Psalm III]) draw on biblical texts dealing with suffering, repentance, the passing of time and eternity. The three poems show the gradual change in the poet’s work – the restless revolutionary attitude changes into thankfulness for the victory and finally to the humble acceptance of life, submitting to God’s will the joyless state of the nation and the poet’s personal suffering. Sládkovič begins with a collective elegy, pleading on behalf of the whole nation, turning to the past and showing devotion and trust in God. In the royal psalm, he used climax and literary devices involving repetition. The final poem, an elegy of a theologian, is marked by the author’s return to the use of the Czech language and to the melodies from the Protestant hymnal Cithara sanctorum. The elegiac parts resonate with motives of negative emotional states and accusations of enemies. Each poem ends in the lyrical subject making sure he has been heard.

The analytical-interpretative study examines the depiction of literary characters in the lyrical-epic work Detvan written by Andrej Sládkovič. It interprets the ingenious system of relations between the Slovak nation represented by the main character Martin and King Matthias Corvinus. The study notes the shifts in meaning and symbolization of relationships in this work and reveals the influence of national ideology in the creation of characters and their relations. It proves that the relationship between the king and the main character is a poetic expression of the national program, and that the story line is determined by the Slovak auto-stereotype of a peaceful nation. The article was written on the occasion of the 200th anniversary of Andrej Sládkovič’s birth.

Andrej Sládkovič (1820 – 1872) was not only a priest and a poet: he also wrote reports from cultural and political events and provided feedback to the works of others. Among other things, he considerably contributed to the publication of the minutes and diary from the Slovak national assembly held in Martin on the 6th and the 7th June 1861 where the Memorandum of the Slovak nation was adopted. A. Sládkovič assembled all the materials from the event and prepared them for publication. His goals in this regard were to provide information, preserve the memory of the events, and reflect on the activities of the Slovak nationally-oriented intelligentsia. In this way, he captured the personalities connected to the national movement and events forming national awareness. The article describes the circumstances under which A. Sládkovič participated on the documenting of the memorandum assembly and shows that he contributed not only to the preparation of the materials for publication, but also to the capturing of the atmosphere under which the document was written.
