Sažetak
One of the most important events in the cultural history of Rijeka, that strongly influenced the entire history of the city and its surroundings during the 19th century, is the revitalization of the printing industry with the founding and the beginning of activity of the Karletzky Printing Company in 1779. Being the only printing company in Rijeka until the 1850s, in about a hundred years of activity the Karletzky Company printed a significant number of different types of publications in more than one language - primarily in Latin, Italian and Croatian, and some in German and Hungarian. In addition to publications in other languages, the publications in Croatian are valuable material for studying several periods of Croatian history, especially the history of Rijeka and its surroundings. These are also very important for the study of Croatian linguistic and literary history, and particularly for the study of the church history. Namely, the largest number of publications in Croatian language printed in the Karletzky Printing Company until the 1830s are religious publications, primarily destined to meet the needs of priestly and religious activities in Rijeka and its surroundings, that is in the Diocese of Senj-Modruš in its entirety, and these publications, albeit in considerably smaller measure, are also printed in the second half of the 19th century. The paper presents an overview of the known and available religious publications printed in Croatian language in the Karletzky Printing Company in Rijeka, with their material description and the description of their contents and basic features.
