Sažetak
The research aimed to analyse the language of publication of
journals classified under humanistic sciences (humanities)
at Hrčak, the portal of scientific journals of Croatia. As for
their scopes, the journals were categorized into mono-disciplinary,
intra-area and inter-area ones. Most journals
allocated to the humanistic sciences were published either
exclusively or mainly in Croatian, and English appeared
to be the second most frequent publication language. The
yielded results point to two directions in Croatian scientific
journals in terms of the publication language. On the one
hand, they aim to the international dissemination of the research
results, which implies that the articles are published
in English or some other widespread language. On the other
hand, cultural traditions should be preserved, and one way
of doing so is to publish in the standard Croatian language.
Interestingly, containing articles written in English did not
prove to be a factor for the inclusion of journals in the Web
of Science (WoS). Ultimately, the language of the journals’
titles of the three scope categories was scrutinized for both
the whole sample and the subsample of journals indexed in
the Web of Science. In both cases, the predominance of the
journals’ titles in Croatian was evident.
