The authorreconstructs the course of negotiations on the basis of diplomatic documents and, first of all, the correspondence between the Chairman of the Trade delegation of Soviet Russia in Czechoslovakia P.N. Mostovenko and People’s Commissary for Foreign Affairs G.V. Chicherin and his deputy minister M.M. Litvinov. The article looks over the complications experienced in the course of the talks which were caused by the fact that the initial draft treaty compiled by M.M. Litvinov addressed only the economic issues. The later attempts of the Soviet diplomats to broaden the treaty by adding political agenda to it (including the articles about neutrality, the unity of diplomatic representatives, the obligation not to support hostile organizations and persons) provoked resistance from Czechoslovakia. The Czechoslovak government strived to gain maximum advantageous trading opportunities and to confine itself to economic issues, excluding the political ones. The author of the paper investigates the reasons which forced Czechoslovakia to make concessions and sign the treaty.","PeriodicalId":89622,"journal":{"name":"Sovetskoe slavianovedenie (Moscow, Russia : 1965)","volume":"233 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86693979","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was discovered that the source of the cliche is the Gospel of Luke’s quote (Luke 10:19), which was included in the oral charms of the Southern Russian, Eastern Belarusian and Eastern Ukrainian regions, as well as in the Russian North handwritten herdsman charms, most likely through liturgical texts. In herdsman charms this cliche fits organically the list of wild animals from which a charm was supposed to protect the livestock while grazing it in the forest. This allowed the cliche to stay in these charms for a long time – from the 18th and up to the beginning of the 20th century. Unlike the tradition of the south of Russia and the adjacent Ukrainian and Belarusian territories, zmiya skorpiya cliche was practically not varied in the Russian North, since it turned out to be in demand by the handwritten tradition. These herdsman charms were read during the ritual, more often the herd was bypassed with them. The charms also were stored, inherited, bought, sold and copied, and they were almost not subjected to natural variation during oral existence, which led to their conservation and gradual distortion as they were repeatedly copied and as the tradition was destroyed. The cliche was also recorded in love, healing and military charms, but it did not develop in them due to the absence of motives associated with snakes in these charms. In addition, it was included in a number of handwritten prayers, which were widely distributed primarily in the Russian North (such as the Archangel Michael’s Prayer against the Snake, the St. Tryphon’s Incantation, etc.).","PeriodicalId":89622,"journal":{"name":"Sovetskoe slavianovedenie (Moscow, Russia : 1965)","volume":"435 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77731484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The author has drawn the conclusion that both versions did have a common Old Czech archetype that was modified in both cases. The German translation is to be considered as the final version received by Sigismund: it had been composed not by the court chancery, but by the petitioners themselves. As lay people they have partly ignored, partly misunderstood what the Bohemian clergymen and scholars have expressed in the archetype: 1) the papal charters that set the divine service to a stop they considered being such document that set somebody to an office; 2) two requests are excluded from the final version, the first request demanding the unobstructed promotion of a master degree to the students of Prague university and second one asking for the convocation of a new council of the Catholic Church that would legitimate the utraquism; 3) the noetic notion of freedom from the Old Czech version («the freedom to God’s Law and God’s Word») has been profanized in the final German version: it has been considered a privilege to be granted by the monarch («the freedom of God’s Law and Word… to all Christian people»), while the utraquism is said to be not only the Law of God, but also as a terrestrial law allegedly imposed by King Wenceslas and to be renewed by his brother.","PeriodicalId":89622,"journal":{"name":"Sovetskoe slavianovedenie (Moscow, Russia : 1965)","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88936936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
