Slavic reciprocity was a set of ideas that sought, enforced and defended the political, religious, cultural and civilization affinity of the Slavic nations. In the early stage of enforcing Czech national identity, this reciprocity focused on language and literary affinity. Then, it gradually moved to political aims. It moved from universal Slavic reciprocity and unspecific, Kollár-like Pan-Slavism to Polonophilia and Russophilia. Austro-Slavism played a specific role, as well. The idea of general Slavism was increasingly more often replaced with specific manifestations of bilateral collaboration. This trend was also reflected in New Slavism, which replaced the Slavism of the 19th century in the first decade of the 20th century. A direct link can be seen between New Slavism and the Slavic policy of interwar Czechoslovakia. With respect to the change in the contents of Slavism it is necessary to create distinctions between the terms 'Slavic reciprocity', 'Pan-Slavism' and 'Russophilia'.

While Poles rejected Pan-Slavic ideas in Europe, especially those that saw Russia as the protector of the Slavs, in Chicago a type of Pan-Slavism quickly emerged in the years after the Civil War. Polish and Czech immigrants forged a working relationship based on their common Slavic identity and on the realities of immigration, social class, and shared space in the city’s neighborhoods. These two groups also confronted anti-immigrant and anti-working class biases in the city. Their relationship with the German American community, a politically and culturally powerful group in Chicago, often proved to be problematic. During World War One, the Slavic coalition actively attacked Chicago’s Germans in an attempt to gain more political power. This coalition eventually resulted in the creation of a political machine under the leadership of Anton Čermak, an immigrant from Bohemia, who became the city’s only foreign-born mayor in 1931.

The article deals with the phenomenon of Pan-Slavism in the Czech-American community, with emphasis on the 1860s. The Slavic idea played an important role in Czech nationalism throughout the 19th century, and continued to do so even among Czech immigrants in the United States. In the 1860s, Pan-Slavic feelings led to two unsuccessful projects for transmigration of American Czechs to Russia. The article attempts to answer why these plans received so much publicity in the immigrant community, what Czech-Americans thought about them in the context of their national, religious and social structures, and what the reasons for the failure were.

This study explores nationalist strategies inscribed in the media reception of the 1947 Czechoslovak movie Warriors of Faith. While the Slovak press paid only marginal attention to the film, I demonstrate that the Czech press developed an exclusionary Czech nationalist discourse of Hussite tradition while entailing other components of Czech nationalism such as pan-Slavism. The analysis shows that the film reviews can be differentiated according to a clash between non-communist and pro-communist camps. Although the non-communist press criticized the principles of socialist realism, cultural nationalism, and ahistoricism, it failed to present any distinctive narrative. On the other hand, pro-communist reviews framed the movie as a normative model for Czechoslovak politics and society, emphasizing elements of Czech nationalism, rendering it an authentic part of communist ideology. They did so by transposing historical realities to the present-day moment and prompting the „legacy fulfilment“ of the proto-communist martyr Jan Roháč to (re)invent Czechoslovak unity and Slavic integrity.

(Belarussian title: Ad paganskaj nastalgii da neapaganskaj revaljucii: belaruskaja i po'skaja ku'tura persaj polovy XX stagoddija u posukah nacyjanal'naj identycznasci). The article deals with a comparative analysis of philosophical and political projects of Belarusian (Vatslav Lastovsky) and Poland (Jan Stahnyuk) national renascence. Carried out a number of philosophical-methodological and political-ideologi- cal parallels in the positions of V. Lastovovsky and J. Stahnyuk within two content and thematic blocks: models of national history and projects of national revival. The author of this article draws attention to finding the both projects in the paradigm of the conservative-traditional searches of ethnic and national identity, their obviously nationalistic character and an internal inconsistency in the views of philosophers, romanticization of the national history, calling for the risky socio-political experiments. On the basis of a theoretical reconstruction of the meaningful problem-field of both the concepts - 'Krivich Renascence' and 'Slavish Pan-Humanism' - the article reveals the similarities and differences in the authors' interpretations of the essence of national culture, the specifics of its development stages, the prospects for the realization of the historic mission of the Belarusian and Polish peoples.

This essay tries to analyse the ‘Slav idea’, the structure of ‘Slavic thought’ of Ľudovít Štúr, and to explain why it was an attractive ideological option for him. Štúr’s Das Slawenthum und die Welt der Zukunft is seen as more or less a natural continuation of his life-long ideological tendencies. But it is also argued that Štúr can be seen as a man with ‘two souls’ in his political personality. On the one hand, his activities were part of the Slav and Central European struggle for national emancipation, social reform, and democratic rights. On the other hand, many of his writings were marked by a belief in the special character and historical mission of the Slavs, and of the Slovaks and the Russians in particular. His All-Slav ideas were reinforced by the influence of Russian Slavophiles and Pan-Slavists, furthering the conviction that Slav political unity was to be implemented under Russian leadership. The Slovaks were seen as having remained linguistically closest to the original Slavs living in the Pannonian homeland and, therefore, as a special Slav group. Russia was seen as the political centre that was needed to unite the Slavs and to confer on them the leading historical role that Herder and Kollár had foreseen they would play. Meanwhile the values of democracy, equality, and other European ideals retreated to the margins. Aside from preserving the ‘old Slav village community’ as a model of social justice, the Slav idea was incapable of producing any remarkable social or political ideas. Instead it idealised Tsarist autocracy and the Orthodox Church as a conservative alternative to modern Europe.

The world historiography has so far paid attention to the well-known phenomena of PanSlavism and Austro-Slavism in connection with the unification process of Slavic nations. The author of this scholarly study defines the fundamental aims of each term and then points out the significant influence of the Slovak intelligentsia of the 19th century, standing in the origins not only of Pan-Slavism (Ján Kollár), but also of Catholic Slavism (Štefan Moyses), which were significantly followed and promoted in European society by the Croatian Bishop Jozef Juraj Strossmayer. The author describes the beginnings of Strossmayer’s collaboration with both Kollar and Moyses, as well as his change of attitude from Pan-Slavism through Austro-Slavism to Catholic Slavism, in which Moyses and Strossmayer played a decisive role. The study emphasizes the connection between the Slovak and Croatian national movements, which proves to be indicative for a better understanding of Slovak history, especially in the second half of the 19th century as well as in the first half of the 20th century. In the conclusion of the study, the author emphasizes the significance of the millennial celebrations of the arrival of Sts. Cyril and Methodius in Great Moravia, which were the beginning of the public manifestation of Catholic Slavism in the Habsburg Monarchy.

Albína Podhradská (1858-1880), of Slovak origin, is the author of the first preserved theatrical play in the Serbian language by a woman – ‘Poor Mileva from Bosnia in Our Civilization in 1878’. The play with singing parts was published in 1880, soon after the author’s death; both the play and its author are completely unknown and forgotten nowadays. The subject of the play is a then current topic, the destiny of refugees from Bosnia, a mother and a daughter who come to Vojvodina because of the war, that is, the Bosnian-Herzegovinian uprising (1875-78). The plot is completely subordinated to the author’s thesis about the victimization of an innocent individual; she was also an advocate of the union of the Slavonic nations, especially because she believed that their position in Europe was marginalized. Probably because of the explicit Pan-Slav political views, which were unacceptable for the Austro-Hungarian authorities and because of her criticism of Vojvodina’s milieu, which she softened to a certain degree, the play has never been staged.

The author of the study assumes that some poems can presently be regarded as manifestos of the idea of Slavism. He concentrates on the poem/song by Samuel Tomasik (1813–1887) 'Hej, Slovaci' (Hey, Slovaks) which is known as 'Hej, Slovania' (Hey, Slavia) outside of Slovakia and designated as a Pan-Slavic anthem. It was created in 1834 in Prague where Tomasik felt that Slavic nations are threatened by Germanization. His alarming cry was not only an indication of danger, but also an encouragement to the fight for national survival. The study focuses on the reception of Tomasik‘s song in the Serbian and the Croatian environment, and partially even in Bohemia. Nevertheless, the author also pays attention to translations and adaptations of other mobilizing poems and songs in the Slovak, the Serbian and the Croatian linguistic environment. Although a common Slavic ideological aspect dominated in the poetry of these literatures, each of them manifested peculiarities based on a different socio-political development in the distant past and in the period of formation of national movements, which was characterised by a gradual transition from Kollar's idea of Pan-Slavism to the ideas forming and consolidating the national identity based on Slavism. That is the reason why the readings of Tomasik's song (but also of other poems) in various environments differed to a lesser or greater extant from the original. Already in the 1830s and 1840s, it turned out that the basic ideological dimension (Slovak-Slavic) could not function on the basis of Slovakhood, and that the title and Tomasik's first two verses are untranslatable; they can only be adapted. The poem's / song's Pan-Slavic dimension overlaid its rhetoric, the ideological power enabled the poem to become general, to go through the process of transformation from the domination of the individual (Slovak) to the domination of the general (Slavic). The Slovak language and the Slovak nation in the first and the second verse had to be substituted by other words. The author analyzes the translations and adaptations in detail; he pays attention to the translations of the significant first two verses, which form a reliable basis for the assessment of the extent of the shift from the original. The author explores these processes against the wider historical background and concludes that the adaptations / translations begun to flourish primarily in the environments with a smaller population and of the mostly threatened nations, while neither geographical peculiarities nor population size were a decisive factor. The ideological, defensive and mobilizing aspects of Tomasik's original were accepted by members of all the threatened nations. The translations to the languages of the dominant and highly populated nations did not originate on the basis of the fight for liberty and for the preservation of national identity, but were motivated by the ideas of Slavism, or by the interest in Slavism as well as by the fact that the song has also a wider humanistic dimension.

The study tries to grasp a phenomenon of the early 19th century when the Slovak nation and national literature separated from the Hungarian cultural tradition. However, many of its traditional features continued to exist in modern national literatures. The author focuses on the phenomenon of exodus as one of the defining organizational factors of Kollar's life. He tries to reconstruct Kollar´s relationship with the world in his childhood and youth from individual chapters of his memoirs Pameti z mladsich let zivota (Momoirs of my life's younger years), he mentions his priesthood in Pest, whose most important moment was Slovak church's independence struggle against the German majority. The parts dealing with Kollar's Citanka demonstrate the impact of exodus on his personal life and priest's and teacher's careers. The concept of Pan-Slavism in his works is interpreted as an imaginary home, which refers to Old Testament's paradigm system of Promised Land. There is some symbolism in Kollar's travels around Italy, which played an important role in Slovak national exodus. This phenomenon is naturally associated with many sonnets in Slavy dcera (Fame's daughter), which by activating the Old Testament's symbolism in a creative way also played a major role in establishing new Czech and Slovak ethnographies.
