Sažetak
The writer presents the history, activities and cultural in“uence of the Paulists with general information on their order from first hermits and their grouping to the establishing of the order and papal and church recognition. From their turbulent history a special report is given concerning their pursuit led by the Osmanlis, fight against Protestantism and church reforms started by Joseph II nd. The order was abolished in 1786 but was re-established later. The author also vividly de-scribes everyday life of Paulist monks and states
their daily chores, regulations and goals, stressing their contribution to economy, culture, defense and politics in the countries they lived. The third part of the paper speaks about the Paulists in Croatia from their first monastery in Dubica dating from 1244 till today.
The life and work of the Paulists is closely linked to their monasteries of which some are in function even today: Kamensko in Karlovac, Sv. Petar u Šumi/St Peter in the Woods in Istria, Svetice in Ozalj, Posedarje. Monasteries that do not function any longer are in Lepoglava, Dubica and Remete. The order was active in all fields of human interest: cultural, religious, social, so some Paulist members who left trace as sculptors, painters, writers, historiographers, teachers and bishopsare mentioned. The last part of the paper speaks of the order in Križevci - their arrival, founding of the monastery, high school they opened and run, and the most prominent order members in Križevci.
