Sažetak
Authors emphasize the importance of relevant written sources for the reconstruction of the events during and before the Hvar rebellion, a popular uprising that lasted from 1510 until 1514. They deliver a chronology of the uprising, as well as historiographical interpretations of written sources about the rebellion. Moreover, the authors introduce several new sources from the Chapter Archives of Hvar, and Archives of the parish Komiža from the island of Vis. The new sources from Komiža speak more about the events from February 1510, when the miracle of St Cross occurred, and the source brings news about how this miracle was commemorated within the Church. The first newly found document from the Chapter Archives of Hvar speaks about a great achievement of commoners (rebels) after the rebellion, and that was right to control finances of Hvar commune. Namely, this source is transcription of ducala of Leonardo Loredano from October 28, 1514, according to which the new magistrate in Hvar had to elect an additional treasurer, who had to be a commoner. During renovation of parish spaces (Kuratije) in Komiža, don Ivica Huljev, local parish priest, have found two interesting manuscripts related to the miracle of St Cross, the event that predeceased the Hvar rebellion. The first manuscript is already known in historiography under the title Carte attinente alla miracolosa Crocetta della Chiesa Catedrale di Lesina [Collection of documents regarding the miraculous Cross of the cathedral church in Hvar], and this copy is named Raccolta di variae Memorie attinenti al Miracolo del SSmo Crocifisso, che si conserva nella Catedrale di Lesina [Collection of various memories regarding the Holy Crucifix that is kept in the cathedral of Hvar]. This transcription had date February 24, 1783, but beside the different title, the document is almost the same as the original manuscript. The most important difference in this manuscript that distinguishes it from other copies, are the last two pages where one can find three hymns that were supposed to be read during the “Devine Office of miraculous blood of St Crucifix of Our Lord in the city and bishopric of Hvar”. After these three hymns, one can also read a brief note of Mihovil Milinković, who is the author of the verses. These three hymns and their author are connected between the first manuscript and another one that contains “Devine Office of miraculous blood of the Holy Crucifix” and “Devine Office of St Stephen, pope, and martyr”. Therefore, one could assume that the
Devine Office, that is breviary, was written between 1759 and 1761, and the later transcription was made after 1775. Divine Office of the miraculous blood was read in the city and in the bishopric of Hvar on February 6, the day when St Cross is commemorated. The author of the Divine Office of the miraculous blood was Mihovil Milinković, who was born in 1705 in Vis. He was parish priest in Komiža between 1748 and 1760, and in Vis between 1764 and 1775. Commemoration day of St Cross for a long time was the only public memorial of the popular uprising in Hvar, and the preserved Devine Office reveals in which way the Church intended to interpret events that happened in February 1510. Newly discovered sources: ducala of dodge Lauredana (1514) and Divine Office of the miraculous blood of the Holy Crucifix from the second half of the eighteenth century corroborate results of previous research but in addition, these sources can provide the impetus for further research.
