Abstract

The Church Slavonic polemical literature against Latin Christianity is coeval with Slavic literacy itself. Some topoi of this polemical literature continue to survive through the centuries witnessing the attitude of the Slavs towards Western Europe. This paper investigates the connection of two topoi (the legendary story about the filthy pope, Peter the ‘Stammerer’, and the character of the Female Pope) and their historical context in two polemic works deriving from this very tradition: Protos Gavriil of Athos’s letter written to the King of Hungary in 1534 and Mykhajlo Rosvyhuvs’kyj-Andrella’s works from the end of the 17th century.
