Národné a politické stereotypy v redaktorskej práci Floriána Tománka
National and Political Stereotypes in the Editorial Work of Florián Tománek

Summary/Abstract: There are at least two reasons why to examine more closely national and political stereotypes that were used by the Catholic priest Florián Tománek in the battle of national emancipation before the Great War. On the one hand, these stereotypes show his weltanschauung and thus reveal the social-psychological and anthropological trait of character of this very representative of Political Catholicism. On the other hand, these stereotypes mirror the social-political context and the mobilizing function of stereotypical concepts in the national battle in Slovakia at the beginning of the last century. In this paper we focus on the utilitarian function of stereotypes in the national-emancipatory process of the Slovaks in a time which coincides with Tománek’s active time at the press office of the Slovenská ľudová strana (Slovak People‘s Party).
