Slovo o polku Igoreve

[Markus Osterrieder]

Most interesting to hear that! I am looking forward reading your theses,
Mr. Keenan!

In fact, Dobrovsky's involvement was mentioned already by W. Schamschula
in his recent paper (The Igor' tale from Its Czech to Its Gaelic
Connection. // American Contributions to the XIth Congress of Slavists.
Ann Arbor 1993,130-153), and by G. N. Moiseeva / M. M. Krbets: Iozef
Dobrovskij i Rossija. Leningrad 1990.
