Introduction The Western Slavs once occupied the territory more or less corresponding to the former state of East Germany that is the area roughly between the Oder-Neisse and Elbe-Saale rivers. They are usually called the Polabian Slavs or Wends. They were the westernmost group of the Western Slavs (which includes the Czechs, Poles and Slovaks) who settled the region between the sixth and seventh centu­ ries. 1 The Polabian Slavs are usually divided into three branches: the Sorbs, who occupied roughly the southern part ofthe former East Germany; the Veleti in the northeast of the region; and the Obodrites in the northwest.2 Most of the Polabian Slavs were germanised in the course of time, and only a small Sorbian minority in southeastern Germany retains its linguistic and cultural identity until the present day.' 1 Dvomik 1974:14; and Gimbutas 1971:124-128; and towmianski 1967:98, 221; and Strzelczyk 1976:139-154.

  • The Relative Roles of the External and Internal Factors in the East Slavic Statehood Gen- Esis Were a Key Issue in Pre-Revolutionary Russian Historiography1
    UDC 94(47).02 Вестник СПбГУ. История. 2016. Вып. 4 V. V. Puzanov FACTORS AND CHARACTERISTICS OF EAST SLAVIC POLITOGENESIS The paper is dedicated to the factors and characteristics of East Slavic politogenesis. The role of internal (development of the productive economy, population density, natural environment, ideology) and external (war, distant commerce, cultural diffusion) factors is analyzed by using a multilinear approach. It is shown that on the eve of the formation of the Ancient Russian state, under the harsh natural conditions of Eastern Europe and low population density, the low level of productive economy (especially cottage industry) defined the character of the undeveloped social stratification and potestary institutions of the East Slavs. The geopolitical position at the civilizational fracture zones and the region’s exposure to external invasions were another influence on these processes. With the impact of the internal factors being limited, external factors were crucial in defining the military character of the East Slavic politogenesis. Refs 38.

  • The Story of 'Khazar Tribute'
    MIRATOR 15:2/2014 84 A ‘Khazar Prince’ at the Walls of Medieval Kiev The Collision of Princely Succession in the Russian Primary Chronicle Aleksandr Koptev In a previous article I examined the Nordic custom of establishing a client by offering him a sword, which was also customary among the princes of early medieval Rus´.1 The sword-offering appears in several episodes of the Primary Chronicle (‘The Tale of Bygone years’, ca. 1110) that depict political subordination in the pre-Christian epoch. A similar offering of a sword in Heimskringla and Nóregs konunga tal (Fagrskinna) demonstrates that there was a tradition of symbols and rituals common to early medieval northern and eastern Europe. The specific focus of my investigation was the narrative of the first encounter between the Khazar army and the Poljanian town Kiev, the dwellers of which offered the Khazars a sword in reply to their demand to pay them a tribute. This episode is included in the preface of the Primary Chronicle, which describes the very early history of Kiev before the arrival of the northern chieftain Oleg with his Rus´ warriors. After this time, and subsequent to the death of the three brothers in Kiev, the Poljanians were oppressed by the Drevljans and other neighbours of them. Then the Khazars came upon them as they lived in the hills and forests, and demanded tribute from them. After consulting among themselves, the Poljanians paid as tribute one sword per hearth, which the Khazars bore to their prince and their elders, and said to them, ‘Behold, we have found new tribute’.

  • German-Bohemian Immigration to North America Robert J Paulson, German-Bohemian Heritage Society
    Selected Papers from the 2003 SVU North American Conference, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, 26-28 June 2003 German-Bohemian Immigration to North America Robert J Paulson, German-Bohemian Heritage Society There were three periods of immigration to North America from the German speaking parts of what is now the Czech Republic: post World War II, pre World War II, and mid 19th- century. After the expulsion of the German people from Eastern Europe in 1945, some of them immigrated to the United States. These people were sponsored by German societies and German churches in this country. Groups of German-Bohemians settled in the major cities of the United States; primarily, in New York, Chicago and San Francisco. These groups of people maintained contact with their fellow countrymen in Europe and also tried to preserve their culture in this country. They formed Sudeten-German societies where they could dance their traditional folk dances in their colorful folk costumes, sing the old songs and prepare the traditional foods. They did this so that they could preserve their unique culture. Prior to World War II, during 1938 and 1939, between the annexation of the Sudetenland by the Nazis the and beginning of the war with the invasion of Poland, several thousand German-Bohemian Social Democrats, socialists and intellectuals who opposed the Nazis tried to plead Czechoslovakia. These people would have been killed by the Nazis, if they had not been protected by their Czech neighbors. Most traveled to Prague were they were harbored in and pseudo- arts groups. They were spirited out of the country via an underground railroad through Poland to England, where they remained for several years.

Following upon the research of Croatian linguists (Katičić) and ethnologists (V.

First of all, those are the Trema area near Križevci, with the churches of Sv. Juraj in Đurđic and Sv. Julijana in Trema, the site of Đurđička- Rudina near Daruvar, and Pogano St. Peter at the Western Papuk.

  • Bohemia & Moravia
    BOHEMIA & MORAVIA COAT OF ARMS of BOHEMIA Bohemia, in current Czech Republic Moravia, in current Czech Republic BORIVOJ I 851-888 Borivoj I was Duke of Bohemia (851 - 888). The head of the Premyslid Czechs who dominated the environs of Prague, Borivoj in c. 870 declared himself kníe (later translated by German scholars as 'Duke') of the Czechs (Bohemians). Borivoj was recognised as such by his overlord Svatopluk I of Great Moravia around 872 who dispatched Bishop Methodius to begin the conversion of the Czechs to Christianity. Borivoj and his wife Saint Ludmila were baptised by Methodius in 874 and the latter especial- ly became an enthusiastic evangelist, although the religion failed to take root among Borivoj's subjects. Around 883 Borivoj was deposed by a revolt in support of his kinsman Strojmir, and restored only with the support of Svatopluk of Moravia. As with most of the early Bohemian rulers, Borivoj is a shadowy figure and exact dates and facts for his reign can never be considered as completely reliable, although several major fortifications and religious foundations are said to have dated from this time. In old Czech legends he is said to be son of a prince of Bohemians called Hostivít. SPYTIHNEV I - c. 1894-915 Spytihnev I (? - 915), Duke of Bohemia (894/895 - 915), was the eldest son of Borivoj I. Spytihnev is known solely for his 895 alliance with Arnulf, Duke of Bavaria, (the Diet of Augsburg) separating Bohemia from Great Moravia. Designed to protect Bohemia against the ravages of Magyar raiders, this pact also opened Bohemia to East Frankish Carolingian culture and paved the way for the eventual triumph of Roman Catholicism in Czech spiritual affairs.
