Grga Novak and Dubrovnik
Mate Suić
Sažetak
In the great opus of the late academician and university professor Grga Novak, who most of his works dedicated to the past of the East Adriatic from the prehistoric era to the end of the 20th century, an important place occupies the history of Dubrovnik. In his treatises and smaller works, published in different scientific periodicals and miscellanies, he dealt with some questions from the political, diplomatic, economic and cultural history of the Dubrovnik Republic, particularly with her struggle to preserve her integrity and trade activities in the Adriatic and Mediterranean basins, opposite to the Venetians' tendency to weaken and endanger her. It was his merit that the organization and promotion of the scientific work on the history of the Dubrovnik Republic and her maritime affairs was established. Thanks to him the Historical Institute of the Yugoslav Academy of Sciences and Arts and its annual »Anali«, the editor of which he was for years, were founded.
His efforts on publishing a critically written history of Dubrovnik for which he wrote and published its first volume dealing with the period from the earliest times to the fall of Epidaurus, must be pointed out in particular.
This old Croatian town, as well as many others in the East Adriatic (Split, Hvar, Vis, Šibenik and Zadar) should be very obliged to the great scientist because of his research work, publications and other public cultural and scientific activities.
With these few words »Anali« expresses its deep gratitude to this great man.
