Sažetak
Author discusses early history of educational work of sisters of St Ursula order in Varaždin, from their arrival in 1703, until the beginning of the twentieth century. Namely, their work consisted of educational and school work that, in comparison with contemporary European and Croatian standards, was way ahead of the time. Ursuline pedagogical work was based on the manuscripts of the order’s founder St Angela de Merici and Jesuits’ regulation on high and higher schools Ratio studiorum. Since these two ecclesiastical orders had similar religious and educational approaches in their work, and especially since these orders coexisted in Varaždin in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the author rises the question whether these two ecclesiastical orders cooperated in their educational and pedagogical activities; or even whether Jesuits influenced on organization and activities of Ursuline schools and Ursuline educational doctrine. The investigation of the first chronicle of the Ursuline monastery in Varaždin, which covers timeframe from the period when sisters of St Ursula came to Croatia up to 1900, reveals a deeply spiritual and charismatic contiguity between Jesuits and sisters of St Ursula and constant pastoral work of Jesuits within the Ursuline monastery and church. Still, the chronicle reveals also that the Ursuline sisters had a broad autonomy regarding their educational work.
