Description

Historical background Slovak ethnology began to unfold in the early nineteenth century as a form of native studies. Comprising folklore, ethnography, musicology and literary studies, the discipline arose during the Slovak "national awakening," when leading intellectuals, such as Pavol Jozef Safarik (1795-1861) and Jan Kollar (1793-1852), sought to strengthen political demands for self-determination with the findings of scholarship. Understood as a branch of Slavic studies, narodopis played the dominant part in the codification and protection of Slovak folk culture. Its first institution, the patriotic civic association Matica slovenska, was founded in 1863 as an expression of resistance to the policy of Magyarization pursued by Hungary. Shut down in 1875, Matica resurged in 1918, this time to defend Slovak national culture against the Czechs.
