The paper deals with the analysis of folklore imagery in the literary theory of Ľudovít Štúr. Štúr defined Slavic poetry as the reason for the existence of the Slavic nation, by which they were to contribute to the harmonisation of the world. Štúr determined the quality of this literature on the basis of Slavic folklore, and he considered folklore imagery to be the guiding principle for Slavic creators. He paid special attention to the trope of natural-psychological parallelism, which he considered to be the realization of the definition of poetry, and a synthesis of spiritual meaning and natural imagery. The paper analyses Štúr's theory of folklore imagery and notes the ideological dimensions of his interpretation. In fact, Štúr approached folklore very selectively, considering as a manifestation of the Slavic spirit only those contents and tropes that he could reconcile with his own ideological premises.
