In this study, individual features of the three authors are discussed- including the issue of the credibility of their information on Old Slavic religion- and broader conclusions on medieval thought are also presented".East Central and Eastern Europe in the Middle Ages, 450-1450 ;Volume 60.SlavsReligionEurope, EasternChurch historySourcesSlavsReligion.299.18Rosik Stanisław1572445Tyszkiewicz AnnaMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910793921703321The Slavic religion in the light of 11th- and 12th-century German chronicles (Thietmar of Merseburg, Adam of Bremen, Helmold of Bosau)3847388UNINA
