This paper is concerned with the folkloristic studies published in Slovak Ethnology in the years 2003-2012. It traces their themes and proportionate share within the overall context of the journal. The coverage given to the modern study of communication and folklore genres turns out to be impressive. The meritorious level of folkloristic studies corresponds to the advertised rubric, and jointly they create an image of the level of Slovak folkloristics and the systematic work of the journal’s editorial collective.

Andrej Melicherčík, CSc. (1917–1966) is one of the founding personalities of professional folklore studies in Slovakia. During his studies of Slovak and German at the Slovak University (today, Comenius University) in Bratislava, he was largely influenced by the lectures of P. G. Bogatyryov who was at that time working at the Bratislava university. Bogatyryov’s application of functional structuralism was an inspiration for Melicherčík’s research and theoretical thinking about the phenomena of traditional culture, specifically folklore, but the paper also focuses on Melicherčík’s application of the so-called Marxist methodology. The article deals with the thematic and methodological contexts of Melicherčík’s significant work on the contemporary historical and political turning points of the 20thcentury in Czechoslovakia. The author focused on one of the dominant topics of Melicherčík’s research programme– the robber/Jánošík tradition, and describes the underlying conceptual contexts and the methodological tools used. The objects of analysis were Melicherčík’s monograph books on this topic and chapters in synthesis works.

He cooperated with his students and Ukrainian intelligentsia from the region of Western Carpathians. Pankevich published his results in the local Ukrainian as well as Czech and Slovak periodicals. He was teaching at the Charles University in Prague where he brought up a generation of scholars who investigated Ukrainian culture.
