- Abstract
The paper focuses on the message of the Byzantine Cyrillo-Methodian mission in Great Moravia, which lasted only a short time but became an important part of our common European heritage. The message of the mission of brothers from Thessalonica, whom Pope John Paul II had declared Co-Patrons of Europe, influenced the religious and cultural development of Slavic peoples. The spread of its cultural heritage through generations had a significant impact on political events in Central Europe as well. The purpose of the paper is not to provide an analysis of the influence of Cyrillo-Methodian mission among Slavs, but rather to pay attention to how the Cyrillo-Methodian heritage and tradition was used as cultural, national, social and political capital in the history of the Slovak nation. The paper briefly deals with political factors and ideological interests that significantly determined the possibilities and limits of the spiritual and social message of these Christian theologians, teachers and missionaries.
