Graphetic specialities of the texts of the eastern branch of the Croatian Glagolitism
Mateo Žagar
Sažetak
Having in mind the state of the graphetic levels that we have described here as a whole and especially as a graphetic organization / character co-ordination (with all the consequences it causes) and regarding the principle of scriptura continua, we bring more arguments against the previous prevailing statement in the Croatian philology that it is justified to arrange all the oldest Croatian Glagolitic fragments in one sequence and look for a unique order among them however that order may very much lack a pretension to be absolute. It is obvious that in the Croatian historical territory in the 12th century (if we remain at this dating) two circles (wings) of the
Glagolitic litteracy co-existed, udoubtedly in communication, but with their own development and standardisation. The western one, which had a rich future and which underwent a major reform in the 13th century, was originally more oriented toward the communication with the North, (the strong tie with Kij and Pra indicates it in the graphetic aspect as well) while the eastern one was oriented toward the Bulgarian- Macedonian-Serbian contact litteracy – Glagolitic and Cyrillic. On the other side, the contemporary concept of the national (written) culture, which does not have to be organized in a centripetal way or developed in a monolithic way and in cohesion, the concept which allows the later established categories to be reflected in the past (but with a warning that exclusiveness often may deny it), does not allow any doubt regarding the integrity of the national corpus.
