Abstract
The author presents three documents which deal with the question of reform of the Catholic Church in Croatia, in particular its view of the ideas and values of modern bourgeois society regarding freedom and equality, In two of the documents reforms are sought within the Catholic Church of Croatia, especially as relates to the organization of Church wealth, the elimination of clerical celibacy, and the introduction of the national language into the liturgy. The third document reproduces the proclamation of the bishop of Zagreb, Juraj Haulik, to the inhabitants of the Zagreb bishopric, where he sets out his views on the principles of freedom and equality.
