Abstract
The article surveys the translations of Anglophone literatures in Matica hrvatska’s book editions. By providing an overview of the basic segments of this corpus, as well as of its gradual development from the 19th century up to the present time, it aims to reconstruct the key aspects of Matica’s translation policy in this respect. Notwithstanding the fact that these aspects have inevitably varied during almost 180 years of its existence, partly due to the absence of a unique and strictly defined publishing strategy, Matica has evidently played an invaluable role in the Croatian reception of Anglophone literatures in various, and sometimes less familiar, forms and domains.
