Course Content (Syllabus)

More specifically, the course studies the most important moments of the long historical course of the Slavic world, such as the departure of the Slavic tribes from their original cradle and their spread in Europe, the establishment of the first medieval Slavic states and their Christianization, their political evolution over the centuries, the emergence of modern Slavic nation states, the modern Slavic world, etc. At the same time, the presence of Hellenism is decisive in many of the above aspects of the history of the Slavic world.
