Abstract

Palaeographic research conducted on the mentioned works of Croatian Glagolitic heritage compares the graphic characteristics of two variants of Glagolitic cursive writing – diplomatic and literary cursive. The research methodology is based on a grapholinguistic description with the focus on palaeographic categories of coordination in the line system, morphology of letter forms and comparisons of abbreviations and ligatures. The aim of the research is to clarify the development of the mentioned subtypes of the Glagolitic alphabet which were specific for Croatian litteracy. The approach to research is genetic – we will try to see where the degree of letter coordination (as the main generator of the minusculization process) is fixed. The observed corpus of Croatian Glagolitic writing is still insufficiently researched, and this fact was an additional reason for the conduction of the planned paleographic research.

Keywords
