The Golden Age of Bosna Srebrena in Slavonia and Srijem - from the Great Vienna War to the division of the province in 1757
Robert Skenderović
Sažetak
At the beginning of the 18th century, church authorities tried to restore church institutions in Slavonia. In the existing circumstances, the Franciscans of the province of Bosna Srebrena (in Latin: Bosnia Argentina) managed the best. After the expulsion of the Ottomans from the Slavonic cities, they began the construction or renovation of their monasteries in Gradiška, Cernik, Brod, Požega, Osijek, Đakovo, Vukovar, Šarengrad, Ilok and Petrovaradin. In addition to the already existing monasteries in Velika and Našice, the listed monasteries were built very quickly and became strong centers of Franciscan activity in Slavonia. As a rule, the Franciscans had schools in them, and in some they also had philosophy and theology studies. Monasteries were also places where the city's elite often gathered. The number of monks, the number of newly built monasteries, the number of parishes over which they led pastoral care, the activities of the Franciscans in the religious, cultural and educational fields, their connection with the city elites and the support they had from the civil and military authorities show that the first half of the 18th century can be considered the golden period of activity of the province of Bosna Srebrena in Slavonia. However, after 1750, an era of crisis begins due to several reasons. On the one hand, the bishops begin confiscating numerous parishes, which they hand over to diocesan priests. On the other hand, the internal divisions within the Province of Bosnia Srebrena are getting bigger and more obvious. This eventually leads to the division of the province of Bosnia Srebrena. In 1735, the Dalmatian Franciscans separated from it into a separate province of St. Kaje, and in 1757 the Slavonic-Danube Franciscans founded a special province of St. Ivan Kapistranski.
