The poet, author, and Protestant priest Bohuslav Tablic (1769 – 1732) published only seven occasional speeches from his sermon writings. As he explained, this was due to the lowered interest of the readers in religious literature as such. The sermons that were published strongly aimed at forming the readers’ values and opinions with respect to general religious issues. Influenced by Enlightenment rationalism, Tablic focused on moral norms in his sermons. He saw the solution to the critical state of his own Evangelical Church of the Augsburg Confession and the loose morals of its members in a deepening of the confessional awareness of the community. He believed in a strong (supernatural) motivation of religion towards moral purity and sought the benefits of religion in spiritual unity of the society, its effective working, and quality social relations. He saw religion as a significant educational and culture-forming phenomenon. The country’s progress in Tablic’s view was to be based on active participation of morally mature and educated citizens on the religious and public life. In his sermons, like in his other writings, he is a moderate enlightened thinker and author.

Focusing on the late 18th and early 19th occasional poetry, the article discusses the necessity of making accessible to contemporary audiences the works of older Slovak literature. It tackles textological problems such writing poses and addresses issues pertaining to its adequate evaluation from the point of view of literary history. An adequate assessment of the place these texts occupy in the history of the given literature primarily needs to be based on their complex interpretation springing from an intimate knowledge of the text. Making accessible the widest possible corpus of these literary works is therefore an integral part of research of older literature. In 2020, the authors Martin Braxatoris, Ivona Kollárová, Lenka Rišková and Oľga Vaneková published the monograph Príležitosť poézie. Miesto a význam príležitostnej poézie Juraja Palkoviča, Bohuslava Tablica a Pavla Jozefa Šafárika v dejinách slovenskej literatúry [Poetry’s occasion. The place and role of occasional poetry by Juraj Palkovič, Bohuslav Tablic and Pavel Jozef Šafárik in the history of Slovak literature] which, among other things, contains a selection of occasional verse. On the example of this edition, the article describes textological approaches adopted by the authors. Observations outlined in this article wish to inspire future research that would similarly aim at formulating a more exact set of defining principles concerning editorial handling of this type of texts.
