The childhood and youth of St. Václav and St. Vojtěch in the Czech Legends
ZÁVODSKÁ, Dana
This bachelor thesis deals with the childhood and youth of Saint Wenceslaus and Saint Adalbert (Vojtech) in Czech legends. It also describes their perception in Old Church Slavonic and Latin hagiography. The thesis observes the continuity as well as diversity of motives in the individual works. It also shows historic times in which the two saints lived, their destiny and deeds and focuses on their adolescence and relevant dating. The whole thesis continuously confronts the legends with the pieces of knowledge of literary historians and anthropologists with the aim to confirm or disprove the truth of Saint Wenceslaus and Saint Vojtech hagiography.
