Abstract
In the paper, we shall be singling out Glagolitic graffiti as a particular form of Croatian literary expression from the time of the Golden Age of Croatian Glagolism. We shall be concentrating on some forty Glagolitic graffiti in Lovran from the 15th and 16th century that are found in the Parish Church of St George, basing our research on the list published by Academician Branko Fučić in Glagoljski natpisi in 1982.
The objective of this work is to research systematically the importance of these notations preserved in stucco and their significance from today’s perspective (with possible synonymous comparison) considering Man’s life, his needs and his aspirations during the Golden Age of Croatian Glagolism.
