In the wake of the 200th anniversary of the birth of Ivan Filipović (1823 – 2023), one of the most influential Croatian teachers and pedagogues in the 19th century, authors Associate Professor Emerik Munjiza, Ph.D. and Associate Professor Snježana Dubovicki, Ph.D. presented us with a monograph that thoroughly approaches the subject of Ivan Filipović. The book is titled ‘Ivan Filipović – Organizator hrvatskoga učiteljstva i reformator hrvatskoga školstva [Ivan Filipović – Organiser of the Croatian Teachers and Reformer of the Croatian School System]’, spans over 220 pages, and was published by the Faculty of Education, J. J. Strossmayer Universtiy of Osijek, in Vinkovci in 2023. The authors are eminent experts in the area of Croatian history of education with multiple studies on various subjects with a focus on Ivan Filipović himself; therefore, it comes as no surprise that they are responsible for commemorating the aforementioned jubilee with another significant contribution to the research and preservation of the deeds of the father of Croatian teachers. Moreover, the book is a product of a homonymous project under the supervision of Snježana Dubovicki dedicated to the commemoration of the anniversary on multiple levels and thus shares the projects’ visual identity produced by Associate Professor Marko Šošić, Ph.D. in Art.
