Abstract

The first printing house in Bosnia and Herzegovina was bought by the
Herzegovinian Franciscans in 1872.It started with its work in 1873 in Mostar.
Till that moment the Bosnian-Herzegovinian Franciscans had printed
their works outside of Bosnia and Herzegovina. But, many materials
stayed unpublished: they are kept in the world archives (especially in the
Vatican archive Propagande) and in the Bosnian and Herzegovinian monastic
and parish archives. The author analyzes the materials from that
“pre-printing” period. He divides them in three big groups: documents,
Bosnian Franciscans’ chronicles and parish registers. Since a big part of
the materials from the first two groups have already been published and
made available for the public, especially chronicles, the author emphasizes
research and analysis of parish registers as they are inexhaustible
sources of data about the lives of Catholics during the Turkish and later
periods.
