The book Slovanstvo represents a particular compendium of the history and culture of the Slavic nations, as well as the development of Pan-Slavism up to the second half of the 19th century. Considering the highest achievements of Slavic philology of the time, the authors emphasise the folk culture, literature and art characteristic of Slovenes, Croatians, Serbians and Bulgarians. Within the framework of these themes, a particular marked lexis is introduced and discussed for these four Slavic languages. The comparative linguistic cultural analysis of the lexis in question facilitates examination of the common and specific mechanisms of verbalisation of concepts from the four national cultural spheres in question.
