Sažetak
The Turkish power in Herzegovina was becoming weaker and weaker in
the second half of the 19th century and it was destroyed in 1878, when the
new Austro-Hungarian government came. This foreign government calculated
at the expense of its selfishness, indeed on new bourgeois principles.
Besides many anti-people and repressive measures, they introduced
some progressive moves which were positively reflected in both economic
and cultural field. Bridges were built, roads were made, stores, banks,
schools, libraries, national and cultural associations were established, the
first printing-office in Mostar started with its work (Printing-office of the
Catholic mission in Herzegovina, 1872), the publishing work and publistic-
journalistic activity in the form of the first newspapers in Bosnia and
Herzegovina in the Croatian language also appeared, e.g. “Herzegovinian
basil”, “New Herzegovinian basil”, “The voice of a Herzegovinian” and
“Dawn”.
Special merits for starting the printing-office, publistic-journalistic work,
such as the first newspapers and the first published works in the area
of literature, ethnology, theology, philology etc. belong to Father Franjo
Miličević, leader of the Croatian national revival in Mostar and Herzegovina,
who, educated in the West-European culture, nationally conscious,
politically mature and closely connected with movements of that
period in the parent country Croatia, gave himself to the national and
cultural-educational progress of Croats and other nations who lived with
them in these areas.
