The Latin Language as used in documents from Medieval Dubrovnik with an overview of connections to Bosnia
Drago Župarić
Sažetak
This paper is based on research on documents from the State Archives in Dubrovnik (DADU), created between the thirteenth and the mid-fifteenth century, that is, in the period dating before the fall of Bosnia to Ottoman rule. The Medieval Latin used in them is based on Classical Latin, and greatly corresponded to the Latin used by other nations in Europe at that time. As many different types of documents, or contracts, are covered here, the influence of Romance languages is felt, along with elements of the vernacular. In this paper, some characteristics of the Latin used in contracts concluded in the chancelleries of Dubrovnik are described, also taking into considering other elements of the contracts (units of measurement, trades, posts and titles, the makeup of the government of Dubrovnik, etc.). Many of the contracts which were created between the thirteenth and mid fifteenth century which are preserved in DADU contain bonds registered in the notary, contracts for the construction of buildings (houses, cisterns, etc.), for the transportation of goods, buying and selling, authorization, agrarian contracts, claims, witness statements, as well as other business ventures.
