Castration of Duke Jaromir

Latest comment: 11 years ago3 comments3 people in discussion

According to this article, the unfortunate Jaromir was castrated twice, once by Boleslav III and again by Oldrich. No contemprary sources are cited. Can anyone clear this up? Pugnaciousignatius (talk) 17:06, 2 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

According to a Google translate of the Czech version of the article, his older brother Boleslav had him castrated first, and then a few years later his younger brother Oldrich had him blinded, rather than castrated. And finally he was rather ignominiously stabbed to death while sitting on the toilet. Candidate for world's most unfortunate man? Unfortunately since I don't read Czech I don't know how accurate the Google translate is. 80.177.23.173 (talk) 23:03, 12 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

Yet, according to the tale of Oldřich, Duke of Bohemia, Oldřich did it in 1034, so it seems poor Jaromir was also blinded twice ;-) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.247.27.221 (talk) 20:49, 13 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
