Talk:Hetman of the Zaporizhian Host

Anathema
What does the following text from this article mean? Specifically, the words "the Mazepa's doll was publicly executed"?


 * "The administration was moved to Hlukhiv where the Mazepa's doll was publicly executed and anathema was laid against him by the Russian Orthodox Church."

Perhaps the word "doll" was meant to be the Russian word "доль", referring to the financial resources provided by the tsardom to Mazeppa?

Or perhaps the word "doll" referred to the "Puppet State" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puppet_state) that was in charge of ruling in Mazeppa's absence.

 * Not that this matters anymore (the line was rephrased), but it was a bad translation from the Ukrainian article - "doll" in this case intends to mean effigy. Cran32  ( talk  &#124;  contributions ) 03:23, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
