Slavophiles were intellectuals, in Russia and in Europe, who had an enthusiastic appreciation for and promotion of Russian culture, particularly in the arts, following the Napoleonic Wars. They were often in opposition to the "Westernisers," who sought to emulate Western European culture and institutions in post-Napoleonic Russia. In modern usage, the term "Slavophile" often implies a romanticized and simplistic view of Eastern European culture, and can also be used in a derogatory sense to imply that someone is overly nationalistic, conservative or historically revisionist.
