Abstract

Interpreting relevant literature and archival material, primarily Vatroslav Jagić's
letters to Dragutin Antun Parčić and Josip Vajs, this paper emphasizes Vatroslav
Jagić's support for the Croatian New Church Slavonic project in the second half of
the 19th and the first half of the 20th century. Ever since he was included in Strossmayer's
committee for Croatian Glagolitic liturgical books (in 1868), his advisory
philological support is evident: provided firstly to Dragutin Antun Parčić, the compiler
of the Glagolitic Missal from 1893, and then – in the first half of the 20th century
– also to Josip Vajs, Parčić's successor, editor of the Glagolitic Missal (1927)
which was transcribed in Latin script. This research established that Jagić's role in
this isolated segment of the recent history of Croatian Glagolism is certainly not
negligible, moreover, it sometimes proves to be decisive: for example, 19th-century
Glagolitic Missal is still described as ‘‘Parčić's triumph of Slavic philology’‘ due to
Jagić's review published in Archive for Slavic Philology in 1894.
