Abstract
Croatian Institute of History – Department for the History of Slavonia, Srijem, and Baranja, published in December of 2016 the book Public Memorials of St. John of Nepomuk in Eastern Slavonia authored by Ivan Roth. The young historian of art, Ivan Roth, dealt with the research of monument plastics in his master’s thesis, so the book, as he states himself, is the expanded version of his thesis which was titled “Public monuments of St. John of Nepomuk in Slavonia” which he defended in 2014 at the Department of Art History of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Zagreb. The extensive field and archival research across numerous cultural institutions (archives, libraries, museums, and conservatory departments) was rewarded by a neat, quality, and functional edition representing a noteworthy attempt by the historical institute in Slavonski Brod in promoting the art history papers tightly connected to the cultural and religious history of the post-Ottoman Slavonia in the 18th century.
