Rafo Arneri's Contribution to the Croatian National Revival in Dalmatia
Šime Peričić
Sažetak
Since dr. Rafo Arneri’s name did not appear in the Croatian biographical lexicon (Hrvatski biografski leksikon) while it did in some less important editions of a similar kind, the author deems it necessary to elaborate upon this political figure, that is upon his contribution to the Croatian national revival in Dalmatia. In the article, the author draws upon works which have been recently published and which evoke the attempts made by Rafo Arneri regarding the political awakening of the population of the region, especially the need of its unification with that part of Croatia over the Velebit mountain chain which was under the Croatian duke. The author does this by describing his activities as the leader of the Croatian national revival on the island of Korčula: first as the major of Korčula and afterwards as a representative in the Dalmatian Parliament in Zadar and as a social-public figure in general. The author hopes that his work at least partially corrects the injustice done to this deserving member of the revival movement.
