Ambrose Šarčević and his two dictionaries

Ante Sekulić ; Zagreb

Sažetak

The article discusses the life of Ambrose who lived from 1820 to 1899 (1). He was a jurist as well as a well known public writer. He published many books (2, 3) in which he pleads for a free use of his own language in public life, especially in schools. Then, there are the opinions and evaluations of the work of Šarčević (4), who, in addition to writing books and articles, began the newspapers 'Misečna kronika' and 'Subotički glasnik', published and edited the calendar 'Bunjevački kalendar', was one of the founders of the Public Club (Pučka kasina), and was the originator of the political party of Bunjevci (Bunjevačka stranka). His dictionaries are discussed: 'Tolmač izvornih, književnih i zemljopisnih jugoslavenskih riči' (5) and 'Magyar-szerb-horvat-bunyevac-sokac szotar' (6). The first one is compared with the Acadeny's Dictionary. The conclusion (7) emphasizes the renaissance merit of Šarčević in Podunavlje, and the importance of the two above mentioned dictionaries for studying the treasure of the 'štokavsko ikavski' idiom of the Danubian Croats in Bačka.
