Josip Belamarić orcid.org/0000-0002-1608-0557

Abstract

Nella Lonza’s latest book thoroughly examines the phenomenon of eremitism within the religious landscape of medieval Dubrovnik. The book is a pioneering contribution to the cultural and religious heritage of Dubrovnik and its surrounding, as well as the entire Adriatic coast. Lonza’s research will undoubtedly resonate among scholars engaged in the study of these issues within the broader Mediterranean and European contexts, particularly during the medieval and Renaissance periods when the sacred and religious were still intricately intertwined with the profane and secular aspects of society.
