Abstract
The subject of this article is the elucidation of the relationship between the town of Senj and the University of Zagreb and the influence of famous people who worked and acted in the town of Senj as well as at the University of Zagreb from the opening of the modern university in 1874 to 1899. The research in the paper is based on unpublished archival material kept in the Archives of the University of Zagreb and on digital platforms where works from the mentioned period can be found. The archive material covers the first 25 years of the University’s activities, which will show the cooperation between the University of Zagreb and the town of Senj and the influence of the intellectual circle of the town of Senj on the establishment and development of the University of Zagreb and their relations. In the paper, through several chapters, we will show the influence of the Senj Shipping Company, i.e. the shares of the said company in the financing and establishment of the Foundation for Poor Students at the Royal University of Franz Joseph I. in Zagreb, then a chapter on the importance of the first preacher of the Royal University of Franz Joseph I. in Zagreb Stjepan Sabljak, as well as a chapter on Juraj Posilović, the first dean of the Faculty of Theology and bishop of Senj-Modruš.
