Název v původním jazyce

The Bohemian Kingdom and the Mongol ʻinvasionʼ of 1241

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The paper deals with the facts and myth behind the Mongol ʻinvasionʼ of Moravia in 1241. Since the Mongol myth became the subject of 19th century forgeries, many scholars were misled by them; as a result, the forged documents are presented as trustworthy sources even by renowned contemporary scholars. Consequently, the actual events of 1241 undergo dramatic changes. The invasion – presented at times as a catastrophe – was in reality merely the brief passage of Mongol troops through Moravian territory. Later chroniclers confused this event with the Hungarian invasion of Moravia in 1253. Soon, a fictional victory at Olomouc was invented; later, an imaginary hero was added (Jaroslav of Sternberg) and the story transformed in the 2nd half of the 17th century into an account of a religious miracle, later becoming a key part of the 19th century forgeries that exaggerated the country’s glorious national past by inventing sources that had never, in reality, existed.
