Description Based on the analysis of arguments submitted for the benefit of ascertaining the place and date of the origins of Old Church Slavonic literature together with using the findings that there was awareness of Great Moravian texts in the 10th century Czech enviroment, the author documents the continuity of Old Church Slavonic literature in 10th century Bohemia and Moravia. He also points out the weakness of evidence negating the possibility of the continuity of liturgy in Old Church Slavonic, as well as the paucity of literary evidence to prove about. In addition he proposes that rather than separating literary documents and liturgy, the evidencce of the political practical use of this liturgy should be differentiated from any attempts to use it for "political" purposes.
