Professor Joseph (Osip) Pervolf, the greatest Slavic scholar of the twentieth century, the author of "the only general history of the Slavs", published his book in 1886, which was immediately met with a great response.
In Joseph Pervolf's work, the Slavs appear not as a bunch of disparate and hostile peoples, as was commonly believed in Europe, but as a powerful, unified civilization. Of course, the pages of Slavic history are full of internal strife, fratricidal wars, religious and cultural disunity. Why did this happen? Why could not closely related peoples for centuries to unite their forces, to make a powerful union? And most importantly, is it possible to revive the once lost unity? Joseph Pervolf's book, recognized as a classic of Slavic studies, is published for the first time with rich illustrations. As an addition, the edition includes an essay by Alexander Rittich, which tells about the life of the ancient Slavs.
