| Research Abstract |
The survey of Czechoslovakian archives conducted in 1987 did not discover 13th century German language dcuments produced in that coutry. Later investigation revealed the existence of 6 documents. Two of them are possibly in Prague, but the other documents are in Vienna. However, all of these documents are recorded
In the corpus der altdeutschen Originalurkunden by F. wilhelm. In this relation we discovered a deed written in 1293 in Brno, which is not included in this corpus, but was not written in Czechoslowakia. All the places from which the 13th century documents originated are located in South Moravia, bordering Austria. In our survey this time, we were able to gather a large quantity of materials from the oldest stage, from archives in this region, in south Bohemia and south Moravia.
We collected at all the archives various sources including deeds, official written records and jourals of towns and cities, registers of Jewish people, correspondence, a collection of written wills, reco

rds of trials and suits, chronicles, etc. We chose some deeds from these materials for analysis, in the following way: Trebon (South Bohemia) Matsuo, Brno (Central Moravia) Ono, Bratislava (West Slovakia) Fujii, Kosice (East Slovakia) Hashimoto, Opava (Noth Moravia) Nakajima.
Matsuo dealt 11 deeds of the Hohenfurt Cistercian monstic order. He studied the bairisch characteristics in diese documents, confirmed for among ather things the comparatively high retention of the differentiation of s <-> z.
In Brno there were many old documents originating from the nobility from Austria. Ono, in oder to obtain data for comparison, treated documents written in other regions and considered the superregionality of written language and the special characteristics of writers.
German documents from the first half of the 14th Century in Slovakia were found only in the Bratislava City Archives. Fujii concentrated on two deeds written on the same day with same content and compared these with materials from different eras and regions. He pointed out some characteristics of the German writing system of this region.
The materials from East Slovakia were correspondence from the 15th century. Hashimoto conducted a basic analysis of the vowel writins system and prepared fundamental data.
Nakajima, who analyzed the Silesian materials, observed some superregional tendensies and the bairischosterreichisch element which strongly influenced mitteldeutsch.
Furthermore we have made transcripts of the old documents as precisely as possible. This text, which provides data for further study, may be the first attempt of its kind in our country. Less
