Danijel VOJAK
Sažetak
The contribution of Franjo Fancev to the study of the history
of the Romany population in Croatia is analysed in this
paper through his articles about Romany people, archive
documents and relevant literature. Franjo Fancev was one of
the most important Croatian linguists and historians of the
first half of the 20th century. He wrote five articles about the history and current position of the Romany population in
Croatia and Europe and in 1912 he published this article in
the Croatian daily newspaper "Narodne novine". In his
articles Fancev writes about the history, migration, language,
culture and position of the Romany population in Croatia
and Europe at the beginning of the 20th century. As a
librarian in the Public library in Zagreb, he used
contemporary literature regarding the history and culture of
the Romany population, eg. Franc Miklosich, Josef Karl
Ludwig Habsburg. Fancev was among the first Croatian
scientists to write about the Romany population, and his
articles are an essential source for writing about Romany
people in Croatia, today.
