This paper contains outcomes of an analysis, which is based on a document preserved in the National Archive in the Old Manipulation Collection (the “Established Order”, [1680]). It is a manuscript draft of a plague regulation for the Kingdom of Bohemia, which has survived in three languages. The likely background of the emergence and origin of the “Established Order” is clarified in comparison with other normative sources published by the initiative of state (provincial) authorities in Central Europe at the turn of the 1670s and 1680s in a fight against the plague. Compared with the existing research where the model of the “Established Order” is attributed to the Viennese infection rules of 1679, the current research represents a different view on this issue. In addition to the two mentioned orders (the Bohemian “Established Order” and the Viennese Infection Order), the paper pays special attention to the 1679 Infection Order and the Silesian “Neue Infections-Ordnung”, which was issued in print in Wrocław in 1680. Issues connected with reception of normative texts across the lands and throughout the linguistic milieus will be further mentioned on an example of Silesian and Moravian infection orders issued in the early 18th century, but with a strong relation to documents issued in the second half of the 17th century.
