Sažetak
The position of the craftsmen apprentices and auxiliary labour force in Split in the middle of the fifteenth century has been discussed on the basis of extant apprenticeship contracts from the period of 1443-1449. Namely, the Split apprentices had, on entering their apprenticeship, to make a commitment that they would, besides acquiring the knowledge and skills of particular crafts, faithfully serve their masters in all licit services, while their masters, in turn, were obliged to maintain their apprentices and teach them their craft, and at the end of service donate to them working tools and, occasionally, some ready money. Based on the extant records, the article tries to establish the age at which the boys could have started their training, their origin, and the number of apprentices per master craftsman, and finally tries to sketch out the emotional relationship between the apprentice and his master. Based on the extant contracts on hiring the auxiliary labour force, the article also tries to depict the position of that social group in mid-fifteenth-century Split.
