Abstract

The main aim of the article is to reflect on the features that define Slavic studies as a scientific discipline and to trace how they can, as an autonomous discipline, meet the challenge of developing their own research method. This article is a continuation of a text published under the same title (in “Zeszyty Łużyckie” No. 55), in which I put forward the thesis that Slavic studies constitute a kind of research filter. In its second part, I consider the principle of the operation of the Slavic filter, taking as a point of reference the use of the concept of filter conceived by the Slovak historian Ľubomír Lipták to describe the cultural locus of Bratislava. Anchored in the cultural imaginarium shaped by the Slavic filter, I show the analysis of the ‘Bratislava’ toponym as a punctum of Slovak culture that would be more difficult to capture and describe in a different research procedure. Consideration of the ways in which the notion of the filter is used in Slavic discourse leads to the conclusion that Slavic studies as a hermeneutics of the filter scientifically have an eminently operational character, which determines their scientific identity and influences their methodological staffage.
