Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until the dissolution of Czechoslovakia, Slovakia's identity seemed inextricably linked with that of the former state. This book explores the key moments and themes in the history of Slovakia from the Duchy of Nitra's ninth-century origins to the establishment of independent Slovakia at midnight 1992–3. Leading scholars chart the gradual ethnic awakening of the Slovaks during the Reformation and Counter-Reformation and examine how Slovak national identity took shape with the codification of standard literary Slovak in 1843 and the subsequent development of the Slovak national movement. They show how, after a thousand years of Magyar-Slovak coexistence, Slovakia became part of the new Czechoslovak state from 1918–39, and shed new light on its role as a Nazi client state as well as on the postwar developments leading up to full statehood in the aftermath of the collapse of communism in 1989. There is no comparable book in English on the subject.

Download or read book The Slovak National Awakening written by Peter Brock and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1976-12-15 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Slovaks lived under Hungarian rule for centuries, with no clear sense of political separateness, preserving Slovak as their spoken language, but using Czech as their written language. In the last decades of the 18th and the first half of the 19th centuries, the efforts made by clerical intellectuals to develop a language more closely attuned to Slovak needs led to the rise of Slovak nationalism. The Slovak National Awakening describes the three major stages in the development of national consciousness. In the 1780s Catholic intellectuals began to write in the vernacular; a Catholic priest, Bernolàk, produced a Slovak grammar and dictionary and an influential treatise in defence of Slovak as a language separate from Czech. However, while Slovak ethnic distinctness was being asserted, the sense of belonging to the Hungarian nation was not questioned. The next steps were taken by the Protestant intelligentsia, who had been pro-Czech since the Reformation. Influenced by German concepts of linguistic nationalism, they began to assert Slovak cultural and linguistic separateness, but still within the political framework of the Hungarian State. The third stage in the Slovak Awakening came in the mid-1840s when a group of young Protestant intellectuals, led by L’udovít Štúr, rejected their predecessors’ ‘Czechoslovakism’ and advocated a Slovak language and a Slovak nationality. In 1851, the Catholic Bernolákites and the Protestant Štúrites were able to agree on the language that became the basis of modern Slovak. This study of the relation between language and nationalism will appeal to specialists in European history and will be of interest for the light it throws on modern separatists and anti-imperialist movements.

Book excerpt: In this compilation, the authors evaluate the political situation in Slovakia, a young democracy with a population of over five million and with history of a quarter of a century of independence lying in the heart of Europe, by analyzing the results of the recent general (parliamentary) election held in 2016 and a series of referenda that have taken place in Slovakia over the past two decades. They present the basic rules for the application of parliamentary elections in this post-socialist European country, commenting on the pre-election situation and the chances of individual parties based on the results of pre-election opinion polls.Information concerning an important library located in Bratislava, the capital of the Slovak Republic, is presented in one chapter. The library was founded in 1919, and the first period of its development includes the time of the interwar Czechoslovak Republic from 1919 to 1938, when it was known as the Comenius University Library. The position and mission of the University Library at individual stages, the different ranges of its activities and tasks and the overall potential to fulfil its scientific, cultural and educational mission are also presented.Following this, the authors analyze the historical roots of political radicalism and extremism in Slovakia. The methodology of this chapter is based on historical analysis and statistical analysis of election results, secondary analysis of surveys and analysis of relevant documents and media output.Lastly, asylum seekers' access to health care in the Slovak Republic is described. Asylum seekers represent a specific group, since they are not included in the Slovak health insurance system. Therefore, they do not have the same rights regarding health care as citizens of the Slovak Republic.

This book was released on 2018-02-14 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History and Culture of Slovakia. The people, Sovereignty and history, Language and Tradition. The West Slavonians, who settled down in the area of present day Slovakia, separated by language from Proto-Slavic in the 10th century and their language further developed within the different dialect groups. An important step was the connection of the Nitra principality to the Moravian principality and the formation of the Great Moravian Empire in 833. A particularly important chapter in the development of the Slavic language in that period and territory is connected with the mission of the apostles Cyril (Constantine) and Methodius from Thessaloniki, who were sent by the Emperor Michael III at the request of the Great Moravian Prince Rastislav in 863 to the Great Moravia to disseminate Christianity and who laid the foundation of the legal order in a Slavic language. For this purpose Constantine developed a special alphabet called the Glagolitic alphabet

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Slovakia's story stretches back far beyond recorded history. This captivating book takes you on a thrilling exploration, from the emergence of Neanderthals over 100,000 years ago to the establishment of a distinct Slovak nation. Our adventure begins in the mists of prehistory, where we uncover evidence of the very first inhabitants - the Neanderthals. We follow the trail of successive prehistoric cultures who left their mark on the land, shaping the region's character. The mighty Danube River emerges as a constant presence, serving as a natural border for the Roman Empire (Limes Romanus) and a witness to Slovakia's early development. As the Migration Period ushers in a new era, the arrival of the Slavs marks a turning point. Sharing similar languages and forming tribal units, these people laid the foundation for the rise of powerful Slavic states. We delve into the possibility of Slovakia's inclusion in Samo's Empire, a significant early Slavic tribal union. Cities like Nitra flourish under Duke Pribina, becoming centers of another Slavic entity within Slovakia's borders. The book reaches a pinnacle with the rise of Great Moravia, a powerful kingdom encompassing parts of present-day Slovakia, Czech Republic, and Hungary. This era witnessed a flourishing of Slavic culture and the development of a distinct Slavic identity. The arrival of Saints Cyril and Methodius and the creation of the Glagolitic script mark a cultural and religious awakening. However, the decline of Great Moravia paves the way for Slovakia's gradual integration into the Kingdom of Hungary. Despite political integration, the embers of Slavic identity continue to burn. We explore how the Slovaks, separated from their fellow Western Slavs by political borders, carve out their own unique path within the multi-ethnic diversity of Hungary. The book sheds light on the development of the Slovak language and the gradual rise of national consciousness. History of Slovakia is more than just a chronicle of dates and events. It's a captivating narrative that unveils the forces that shaped Slovakia - from the arrival of early peoples to the development of a distinct language and the forging of a nation.
