FOREIGN TEACHERS IN CROATIA UNTIL 1774

MIRKO RAGUŽ

Abstract

In researching the early history of Croatian education we can very often find data which supports the theory that Croatian education was led by many economical and cultural interests
was connected to western education, mostly with Venice and other Italian merchant towns which always had materialistic interests to the front of their mind. There was a need for educated citizens in Dalmatian, coastal and island towns where trade, arts and crafts were developing in the same way as in similar towns in the west. The need for educated people arose also in Dubrovnik where the schools were more developed than in other places in Croatia. Dalmatia was also the region where different political interests crossed, from Venetians, Austrians, French and Turkish,
of them looking after their interests without giving anything to the locals. The other parts of Croatia under Austro-Hungarian government for more than 400 years had the same history in their education.
