Abstract
It has been assumed that Odiljenje sigetsko by Pavao Ritter Vitezović had been printed only twice during his lifetime: in 1684 in Linz, and then a year later in Vienna. However, a completely unknown copy of Vitezović' Odiljenje sigetsko was found in the middle of the year 2016 in the Eötvös Loránd University library in Budapest, printed by the author himself at Zemaljska tiskara in the Kajkavian-speaking Zagreb. Commencing with comparisons to the first two editions, the paper presents not only the third edition’s many textual particularities, but explores also its position in a wider context, most of all in respect to the targeted readers. While doing so, the inscription dedicating this edition of Odiljenje sigetsko to Vitezović’s friend, the notable colonel Ivan Andrija Makar, comes to mind as one of the most reliable signals pointing to reception targeting. The inscription is attached hereto in contemporary Latin-script.
