Sv. Cyril a Metod a ich reflexia v krajine Slovenska

Konštantínove listy/Constantine's Letters, 2020

Methodius and Their Reflection in the Landscape of Slovakia. The formation of the Cyrillo-Methodian tradition in our history has an impact on the cultural landscape. The aim of the paper is a spatial identification of the cult of Sts. Cyril and Methodius as well as the study of its impact on the landscape of Slovakia. The first step is to identify tangible and intangible features, or, more precisely, cultural landscape elements. In Slovakia, we register in connection with Sts. Cyril and Methodius more than 120 sacral objects (churches, chapels, exterior sculptures). These, together with profane objects (schools, medical facilities) and intangible elements (e.g. street names, squares, organized events), are involved in the transformation of cultural, or, more precisely, religious landscape. The largest number of sacral objects arose after 1989, in the process of modern sacralisation of the landscape, which is typical of countries with renewed religious freedom.

Vybrané environmentálne súvislosti zmien historickej lazníckej krajiny (na príklade obce Hrušov okres Veľký Krtíš)

Geografický časopis, 2018

Selected environmental contexts of changes in the historical landscape with scattered settlement (the example of the village of Hrušov, Veľký Krtíš district) Using the example of the cadastral territory of the Hrušov village, we identified and interpreted changes in the land cover (LC), land diversity (LD) and road network in 1950 and 2010 in relation to the scattered settlement system. The LC and LD changes were identified on three spatially different levels: in the whole cadastral area, in the natural landscape units and in 20 circular areas. Landscape diversity was evaluated by using the Shannon diversity index. The scattered settlements system, by its origin and unique functioning in Slovakia, conditioned some anomalies in LC development which are typical for marginal regions and/or areas with such a type of settlementsdelayed, incomplete or no collectivization of agriculture. On the other hand, the retreat and partial extinction of scattered settlements resulted in changes in LC, whose intensity exceeded the values typical in the wider region.

Návštevnosť Česka občanmi Slovenska a jej priestorové dimenzie

Geografické informácie, 2018

The aim of the article is to evaluate the importance of Slovakia for tourism visitation in the Czechia. Based on sources available from the Czech Statistical Office, it can be said, that Slovakia is an important market for Czech tourism in terms of visitation and number of overnight stays. This fact positively affects a missing language barrier, as well as their geographical proximity. This is also the reason for shorter stays of Slovak citizens in the Czechia, but this is replaced by the frequency of arrivals. In terms of spatial distribution, the world dominates Prague and then the border regions headed by the Jihomoravský region. On the contrary, the most recent interest of Slovaks in Czechia records the regions peripherally due to their position towards Slovakia.

Muzeológia a kultúrne dedičstvo, 2016, 4:1:127-135 Museology in Slovakia This paper examines the history of museology in Slovakia as a scientific discipline in general and a specialized university course of study in particular. We discuss the fundamental characteristics of the discipline, including the development of the current conception of museology as a university course and describe the fundamentals of the course as currently implemented in various institutes of tertiary education in Slovakia. In conclusion, we briefly survey the current state of the field in Slovakia, its potential and its possible future development.
