The study describes Vajanský´s author subject in unusual situations which occurred in his life one after another. He was imprisoned as a journalist for political reasons in Vác in the year 1904, where he wrote a Note Diary. As a well-known writer he was a prominent prisoner and would come across many gestures of solidarity. Besides recording everyday prison life and commenting on social and political events, a significant part of the diary includes critical comments on A. P. Chekhov´s works that he was reading. One of the reasons why he did not publish the diary was his negative assessment of Chekhov, which was in contradiction to the positive contemporary reception. Vajanský first came to Venice in 1905, which was for him as an art connoisseur a dream come true and he could fill a gap in this genre by writing his travelogue Volosko-Venecia. That way he followed in the footsteps of popular and much appreciated „Italian travels“ written by his idols – J. W. Goethe and J. Kollár. Additionally written parts remove spontaneity from the travelogue, enthusing about the perfect beauty of classical arts and condemning anything contemporary confirm that Vajanský is a representative of „ideal“ Realism. Both of the genres feature pretending authenticity, vanity and a sense of disenchantment with insufficient recognition – they lack introspection, detachment or self-deprecation. The author in both genres overuses his competence and wastes a chance to depict himself as a multidimensional personality.

The author analyses selected texts by S.H. Vajanský from the period 1881 – 1897 and he points to his conception of history, in the context of his national ideology and conception of the policy of the Slovak National Party (Slovenská národna strana) at the end of the 19th century. Vajanský’s historical argumentation rests on two different but inter-connected interpretations of national history. The first starts from the concept of the Slovak nobility as an elite group in the society of the Hungary Kingdom, the only group able to represent the mass of the nation. However, instead of this, it voluntarily “broke its connection with its people”, which is the cause of national poverty. Vajanský did not find any cause for pessimism, but for optimism, thanks to the fact that the role of representing the mass of the nation had been taken up by the national intelligentsia. On this basis, he constructed a second interpretation of national history based on their negation. According to him, the Slovak people remembered “prehistoric times”, but remained untouched by “historic times”, which, in the interpretation of the author, meant event or political history. The negation of event history led to historical optimism – the Slovak nation still had its history in front of it.

Among the fundamental ideas on which the rise of Slovak national identity was based is the idea of Slavism. In its context, Vajanský promoted his historicist concept of development of Slavism under the Russian domination, which would be in his view a new epoch in the accomplishment as the ideal of humanity. This idea followed Herder’s vision of the historical and cultural mission of the Slavs. Vajanský’s russophilia derived from the political view and ethnical romanticism of Ľ. Štúr as well as from Russian slavianophiles and the panslavism of N. J. Danilevski. Thus the new objective of Vajanský became an alliance of Slavic nations in which the national individuality would be still preserved.
