Sažetak
Systematic research of historical development of mediaeval statutory law at the territory of Istria, Kvarner Littoral, and its islands began at the second half of the 19th century or in the first decades of the 20th century. In Istria the most responsible for that were Italian researchers. Croatian legal historiography paid less attention to statutes from the territory of Istria, being mostly devoted to the territory of Kvarner Littoral and its islands, especially to the island of Krk, and towns of Senj and Vinodol, and to Liburnian Istria, respectively to Mošćenice, Veprinac and Kastav. Research horizons later widened significantly, and reached culmination after the end of the Second World War. One of the reasons for backwardness of Croatian legal historiography in researching Istrian statutory law in the second half of the 19th and in the first half of the 20th century was very strong pro-Italian, later even fascist policy, at that territory, which was repressive towards political and cultural affirmation of Istrian Croats and Slovenes. But after connection of Istria and Slovenia (in the second Yugoslavia) the state of research began to change. Among Croatian authors from the early after war period, one of the most prominent was Zlatko Herkov, who prepared the first edition of the Statute of the Town of Rijeka. The Statute, originating from 1530, was firstly published in 1948 and, besides Latin text, contained also translation to Croatian, and included an introductory study. After that publishing of critical editions of statutes, urbars, and notary books from the territory of Istria, and Kvarner Littoral continued (especially since 1960-ies), and the State Archives in Rijeka had a significant role in that, through its Bulletin. Already existing researches of Mošćenica, Veprinac, Kastav, Rijeka, Vinodol, Senj, and Krk continued in next years. Researches of the whole territory are closely connected to the names of Mirko Zjačić, Danilo Klen, Đorđe Milović, and Lujo Margetić. Since a number of published sources and juridico-historical studies in the last 60 years raised significantly, a need to compile more complete bibliographic overview emerged. This bibliography presents a list of published statutes, laws, urbars, notary books, and of respective juridico-historical studies for the territory of the whole Istria (including Trieste), Kvarner Littoral and islands.
