Sažetak

The present paper aims at describing the most relevant background data on geomorphological,
economic, ethnohistoric, demographic and linguistic features of the island
of Vis. As an introduction to future holistic anthropological research on the island, it
seeks to identify both internal and external impulses of change and/or continuity of the
island population structure within a wider socio-cultural and historical context. The
ethnohistorical and demographic data indicate a higher degree of isolation throughout
history as compared to other islands in the region and a continuous depopulation trend
during the last century. The analysis of the existing linguistic data on two main settlements
shows a certain amount of intradialectal micro-differentiation, which is mainly
due to various social and non-linguistic reasons.
