Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Near Eastern Affairs and Conditions The word Slavs, as it is usually written in English and other European languages, does not exactly represent the name by which the people to whom it applies designate themselves. In all Slavic languages of today as well as in old Slavic writers the name is Sloveni. The root of the word is found in the names of Slovenes and Slovaks borne by two Slavic peoples to-day, and the name of Slavonia, which forms a part of Croatia. The derivation of the word is obscure and has given rise to various interpretations. According to some it was originally the name of a country, while others see in it the name of a tribe, which by extension in the course of time was applied to the whole race. Reasoning from the name Nyemets which they derive from the Slavic word nyem (dumb), applied by Slavs in general to a German, some writers have derived the name Sloveni from the word Slovo (word or speech) and have explained it to mean the speaking people in contradistinction from the dumb people, or those whose language was incomprehensible to the Slavs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
