[Footnote 3: The Servians, however, under the government of their own energetic countryman, Prince Milosh, for some years enjoyed a certain degree of freedom, which no doubt has had good results for the mental life of the nation. A good view of their country, constitution, and literature, is given in a modern German work: _Reise nach Serbien im Spätherbst_ 1829, by Otto von Pirch, Berlin 1830. See also _Servia und Belgrade in_ 1843-44, by A.A. Paton, Lond. 1845.] [Footnote 4: See Schaffarik _Gesch_. p. 217.] [Footnote 5: These statutes were first printed by Raitch, in his great work on Slavic history (see Note 8); and translated by Engel in his History of Hungary and the adjacent Territories, Vol. 2, p. 293.] [Footnote 6: See above, in the History of the Old Slavic Language, p. 44.] [Footnote 7: There is however still another Cyrillic printing office attached to an Armenian convent in Vienna. Since the printing of Vuk's second edition of the Servian popular songs at Leipsic, several other Servian books have also been printed there. The Vladika of Montenegro has also established a printing office at his residence of Tzetinja. Vuk's "Proverbs" have been printed there.] [Footnote 8: The complete title of this valuable work is: _Istorja raznich Slavenskich narodov nairatchvedshe Chorvatov, Bolgarov, i Srbov_, Vienna 1792-95, 4 vols.] [Footnote 9: The writings of this very productive philologist and historian are however more remarkable for boldness and singularity of assertion, than for depth. In his _Rimljani slavenstvovavshii_, Buda 1818, he undertakes to derive the entire Latin language from the Slavic. In an earlier work, written 1809, he contends that the German language was a corruption of the Slavic dialects spoken on the Elbe.] [Footnote 10: The reader will find a more complete catalogue of the Servian writers and their works, in O.v. Birch's Travels; see above, p. 107, n. 3.] [Footnote 11: _Narodne Serpske Poslovitze_, Zetinya 1836.] [Footnote 12: See below in §2.b, Dalmatian Literature.]
