Abstract

This paper discusses Ivo Pranjković’s scholarly research on the language of Bosnian Franciscans. Pranjković’s articles and books about the linguistic and stylistic characteristics of the chronicles and literary works written in Croatian by Bosnian Franciscans are considered by the author of this paper to be an immense and valuable contribution to the Croatian philology and to the study of the Croatian standard language tradition, which until the end of the nineteenth century was almost exclusively tied to the activities of the friars of the Franciscan province of Bosna Srebrena.

Keywords
