Sažetak
The paper discusses the education of girls and the work of female teachers in schools of Zadar area in the 19th century and until the First World War. Another important issue that the paper addresses were the possibilities that were offered to women, bearing in mind that the female children were often destined to be housewives in the future. The state cared for some types of education of female children, and up to the second half of the 19th century most of the education for women was provided by private schools and convents. The girls were taught by female teachers, who, on the other hand, were able to get education only in colleges in larger urban centers. Therefore, until the mid-19th century in Dalmatia most of the female teachers were undereducated or insufficiently trained. After the State School Act was passed in 1869, things changed significantly. Teachers' work was supervised by school supervisors, some of whom tried to improve the position of the teaching staff regardless of their gender. After the Act on Elementary School Education was passed in 1888, the position of teachers was much more difficult, and female teachers were discriminated in their workplaces as well. However, many of them achieved excellent results in their work, participated in other cultural activities, and became well known in their communities.
