{"product_id":"a-history-of-slovak-literature-peter-petro-9780773514027","title":"A History of Slovak Literature","description":"Starting with the Great Moravian period, Peter Petro surveys one thousand years of Slovak literature. He examines the medieval, Renaissance, baroque, classical, romantic, realist, and modern periods and highlights the contributions of such writers as Hronský, Hviezdoslav, Kollár, Kukucín, Nedozerský, Papánek, Rúfus, Safárik, Tatarka, Tranovský, Vajanský, and Záborský. Like Czech, Polish, and Ukrainian writing, Slovak literature transcended the merely literary to become an influential political and cultural tool: Slovak writers and poets played an important role in promoting and protecting the culture and language of their people against invading cultures. A History of Slovak Literature will be a welcome addition to the field of Slavic studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Petro\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0773514023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780773514027\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McGill-Queen's University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/13\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 6.03w x 0.54d","brand":"Peter Petro","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47244004950271,"sku":"9780773514027","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0fb337f6-76e2-4f18-a868-b1517a59c2e9.jpg?v=1758134705","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-history-of-slovak-literature-peter-petro-9780773514027","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
