Abstract

The interpretation of the onyms and mythonyms in the early printed dictionaries of Europe, including Slavic (Czech, and then Polish) material, deserves close attention. Latin-Czech dictionary of 1511 and subsequent dictionaries of the XVI cent. sometimes give unexpected links and definitions in the Slavic part. These peculiarities in the presented material allow us to reconstruct some details in the concepts of the past concerning the analyzed phenomena. In addition, like other proper names, theonyms and mythonyms do not have special marks in the common alphabetical order or thematic subsections; the last complicates their detection and analysis.
