This brief overview clearly shows that the image and position of Svatopluk in Slovak historiography is not at all ordinary or one-dimensional. Therefore, there is no point in trying to simplify and reduce it to the mere “ľudácky” or “nationalistic” concept from WWII Slovakia, or to one equestrian statue at Bratislava castle. This article aims to outline the rather obvious direct proportion between the national-emancipatory and state ambitions of Slovaks and the number of historical re-examinations and updates of Svatopluk’s interpretation. But more than that, it aims to highlight the universalistic character of Svatopluk. It definitely does not intend to question the internal coherence of the tradition of Slovaks as “the people of Svatopluk” Cosma of Prague writes metaphorically about in the first part of The Nitra Legend of Svatopluk known as Sicut vulgo dicitur, i.e. “As it is commonly said” at the beginning of the 12th century. After all, this legend clearly has Svatopluk not dying, but “disappearing amid his [Nitrian] folk.”

The article is devoted to the analysis of the Carpathian-Balkan studies at the Russian Academy of Sciences that have been held since 2006. The Slovak tradition is an important one, as it has the characteristics which are common for the Carpathian zone in whole. Furthermore, there are a number of Carpathian-South Slavic and the Carpathian-Balkan parallels in the terminological vocabulary and corresponding phenomena of folk culture.

Based on a diachronic case study of history textbooks used in Slovak primary and secondary schools since 1918, this article discusses the roles biographies of historical heroes can play in school education. The case study analyses history textbook narratives about the medieval ruler Svätopluk published during three different political regimes, tracing their heritage up to present-day history textbooks. The text argues that the presentation of Svätopluk’s qualities, talents and achievements has been used not only in depicting him as a representative of the community, and as a desired prototype of a good citizen, but also in the formation of negative stereotypes about the representatives of the Other. This excluded significant segments of pupils of certain national minorities from the mainstream narrative and labelled them as enemies. An examination of the images of Svätopluk in history textbooks confirmed that these were politically motivated and influenced by current ideologies. However, it also showed that the 19th century Romanticist ideals, resulting in apologetic and nation defending narratives, remained an integral part of history textbooks throughout the 20th century, prevailing over the narratives offered by official contemporary historiography
