Sažetak
Although Antun Gustav Matoš never visited Zadar personally, he does have many literary connections with the city. In the Zadar periodical press he published several essays, reviews and polemical pieces in which his literary wit, the charms of his style and polemical acuity and in particular his enthusiastic patriotism came to the fore. Realising that a basic characteristic of the Croatian cultural tradition was its widespread dissemination throughout the length and breadth of the country, Matoš identified Zadar as an important cultural focus of the southern part of Croatia, and this part of the Croatian cultural landscape was a subject of lasting interest to him. The most important fact in Matoš’s link with Zadar is that his book of "studies and impressions" entitled Ogledi came out in the city in 1905,
Matoš having been previously unable to find a publisher for it in the Croatian capital of Zagreb. Working for many Zadar journals and papers, and being in contact with many editors and writers who operated in Zadar, writing of the literary works that were published by Zadar writers or about works printed in the
city, Antun Gustav Matoš made a considerable contribution to the creation of the distinctive literary atmosphere in the regional capital of Dalmatia at the time of the Croatian Modern period.
