the poem is strongly influenced by dante's "divine commedy". the last parts of kollár's work are descriptions slavic heaven and hell. ján kollár was a representative of the panslavism ideology. he believed in union of all the slavs. he opposed everything, he thought to destroy this union. he described adam mickiewicz, the greatest polish poet, to be in hell. it was because mickiewicz wrote poems about polish people's fight against russian tzar.
