In his collecting activity in Slovakia Karol Plicka (1894 – 1987) gave particular attention to the Záhorie region. Taking the example of the village of Jablonica in the eastern part of this region, we demonstrate the collector’s interest in the local song repertoire, individual singers, and the specific vocal style of ornamentation in Záhorie. Using source criticism, a repertoire was identified to the extent of 187 songs, recorded from 26 singers in this locality. Particularly useful are the written records of songs by the singers Pavol Pinkava and Agneša Pinkavová. Their song repertoire contains principally ballads, wedding, and dance and love songs. In his studies the collector also gave particular attention to Pavol Pinkava as an individual singer: the records of embellished singing as rendered by this singer are comparable to the records of the singing of Eva Studeničová, an outstanding singer from the village of Moravský sv. Ján in the western part of Záhorie. The records of songs performed by other singers are instructive as regards observation of song variants, and they highlight the contemporary condition and preservation of folk singing in local tradition.

The article focuses on the conclusion of Alfred III of Windischgrätz‘s life, when the prince had to cope with the demise of the Habsburg monarchy and the establishment of the first Czechoslovak Republic. It proves that although this aristocrat was a highly prominent Cisleithanian politician, he was not perceived negatively in Czech political circles given his affiliation with the so-called conservative party of the grand estates. The author suggests that this fact may have influenced the relatively benevolent implementation of the inter-war land reform on the family estates. The prince, who acquired Austrian citizenship after the war, was the largest Austrian landholder in Czechoslovakia. His domain, with its core in western and south-western Bohemia, included the Jablonica estate in western Slovakia. The author pays particular attention to the fate of this part of the family estate. He analyses the course of the land reform there, including the transfer of part of the forests to the Ministry of National Defence for the purposes of a military shooting range, the allocation of the residual estates, etc., in the broader context of the Windischgrätz domain in Czechoslovakia. It proves that Alfred III sacrificed a considerable part of the Jablonica estate in an attempt to secure better conditions for the reform in Bohemia. His endeavours were successful and he was able to protect most of the original family domain; in the case of the Jablonica estate, it was only a small fragment for the reasons mentioned above. The author sees the reasons for the relative success of the prince and his heirs in the negotiations with the Czechoslovak state on the implementation of the reform primarily in their willingness to reach an agreement. Conversely, the fact that the Windischgrätzs were able to rely on the support of Austrian diplomacy is considered to be a marginal factor. Its role in the struggle to preserve the family property, as the author shows, was not very significant.
