Slavistics at AllExperts (534 words) |
| Slavistics or Slavic studies is the academic field of area studies concerned with Slavic areas, Slavic languages, literature and culture. |
| The slavistics emerged in late 18th and early 19th century, simultaneously to the rise of national revival among various nations of Slavic origins and attempts to establish a common sense of Slavic community, particularly popular among the Pan-Slavist movement. |
| Until 1876 the early slavists concentrated on documentation and printing of monuments of slavic languages, among them the first texts written in national languages. |
