Sažetak
This paper presents new results relating to the geopolitician, writer,
mountaineer, lawyer and sociologist, dr. Ivo Pilar, and his role in the
history of vegetarianism in Croatia. By analyzing the preserved archival
records, there have been new findings relating to the Croatian historical
mosaic of vegetarianism. Dr. Pilar became a vegetarian at the beginning of
the 20th century due to medical reasons. By talking to various people in a
socio-political environment, he presented his view of vegetarianism all over
Europe. Using the experiences he gained abroad, he actively took part in organizing the vegetarianism movement in Zagreb, Croatia. Once the
Vegetarian Society was founded in Zagreb, he was elected as its first
president. Despite his many private and professional obligations, dr. Pilar
held a number of lectures on vegetarianism for numerous organizations.
Following his unexpected passing, Zagreb’s vegetarians gathered at his
funeral to pay their respects to the first president of their society.
