The article reflects the relationship of the Štúr generation to Great Moravia, as the “constructing the past” seemed to be an effective tool in awakening national consciousness. As a result of the necessary narrowing of the research framework, we decided to present the issue of the application of Great Moravian realities through literary or journalistic works published in the appendix of the first Slovak political newspapers – in Orol tatranský [the Tatra Eagle]. Although interpretive penetrations into the works of Ľ. Štúr, A. Sládkovič, J. K. Viktorin and Š. Ferienčík do not exhaust the full breadth of historical reminiscences of the mentioned personalities to the introduced period, nevertheless, they document the way of reviving both traditions in accordance with the symbolism of the time. Štúr’s return to the historical roots of national life, Sládkovič’s abstraction of the fate of Great Moravia, J. K. Viktorin’s reflection on the benefits of the activities of Thessalonian brothers or the image of Nitra in Š. Ferienčík’s work are not only proof that the content focus of the contributions corresponded to the thematic targeting of the Tatra Eagle (resp. that the Great Moravian realities remained in the living memory of the Štúr generation, but that the tragic fate of Great Moravia and the subsequent history should also serve as a memento and construction of the future based on the values of Christianization activity. Despite the genre diversity of the analysed texts, the article provides a picture of the specificity of the attitude and ways of artistic representation of the same historical reality.

The presented study aims to clarify the perception of the Cyril and Methodius tradition in Czech society in the 21st century. The authors of the study tried to identify how widely spread is the legacy of Sts. Cyril and Methodius, depending on gender, age or place of residence of the Czech Republic inhabitants. The survey was attended by 1,125 respondents from the Czech Republic, of which 57.55 % were women (N = 648) and 42.45 % were men (N = 478). The age distribution of the research sample was very variable. In the research sample, Christian denominations were represented in 47.87 % (N = 539), Jews in 1.07 % (N = 12) and others in 2.93 % (N = 33). Without religion were 48.13 % (N = 542) of interviewed participants. The results of our research point to the current state of perception of Sts. Cyril and Methodius’ legacy among Czechs, and the need to promote education about them, especially among young people. In conclusion, we can state that knowledge and information about the Cyril and Methodius tradition in the Czech society in the 21st century is sufficient. On the other hand, young people, in particular, regardless of their religious affiliation, do not have enough information about the legacy.
