Abstract
Several philosophical manuscripits are among the ample manuscript heritage in the Franciscan monastery in Sinj. In order to identify their authors and copyists, it was necessary to find out who were the lectors and the students of the Sinj Provincial Studies. The research showed that there had been several quite educated men among them, e. g. Marijan Lekušić, Jeronim and Petar Filipović, Andrija Stančić, Bartol Ribarević, Bonaventura Bilušić, and Josip Marijan Glunčević. The analysis of the manuscripts showed that some of them came to Sinj from other studies. The author particularly emphasizes three manuscripts from the 18th century (by Petar Lipovac, Andrija Stojčević, and an unknown author, respectively) that show the connections between the North and the South of Croatia. Of particular importance is one of the many rewrites of the Disputationes in octo libros physicorum Aristotelis. In any case, the Sinj manuscripts are more valuable as an introduction into the concepts, thought, and standpoints of their authors and the contemporary menta1ity than as philosophical works.
