Das mythologische Bild des Teufels als Pflüger in der slawischen mündlichen Volksliteratur

Gábor, Ľubomír, 1989- Das mythologische Bild des Teufels als Pflüger in der slawischen mündlichen Volksliteratur = The mythological image of the devil as a plowman in the Slavic oral literature / Ľubomír Gábor. -- In the presented paper the motive of the devil in the folk narrative literature of the west Slavic regions will be analysed. The text corpus consists of orally handed down folk tales. In these sources the devil is presented as a contradictory demonic creature, who signs an agreement on the division of spheres of power. This agreement will be confirmed with magical ploughing as a cosmogonic act. In the paper will also be submitted a hypothesis about the functional similarity of the folk tales devil with the old Slavic mythological system based on old Indo-European sources. The paper attempts to prove, that the cosmogonic act of the devil in the folk tales could be connected with aspects of the Indo-European first functional duality of the Gods-Sovereigns Mitra-Varuna based on description and analysis of Georges Dumézil
