About this book
Historical View of the Languages and Literature of the Slavic Nations is by Talvj, with a sketch of their popular poetry and a preface by Edward Robinson, D.D. LL.D. The preface says the work is founded on an essay that appeared in the Biblical Repository for April and July, 1834. The text describes the Slavic inhabitants of the kingdom of Bohemia and the Margravate of Moravia as about four and a half millions in number, of whom 100,000 are Protestants, the rest Catholics.
The text says it was found necessary at the synod of Kalish in 1357 to repeat a decree excluding all foreigners ignorant of the Polish language from the places of ecclesiastical teachers and instructors. A note describes a manuscript, one of the most remarkable of the age, in the library of Jena, with not less than eighty-eight pictures.
