Abstract
The Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts has played a major and important role in the development of historiography studying the mediaeval period in Croatian history. The most comprehensive sources of information regarding this topic are festive surveys or memorial editions on the operation of the Academy; in particular the last one published so far – the edition of 2011, marking the 150th anniversary of the foundation of the Academy. Nevertheless, a systematic evaluation of the abovementioned role has still not been published. In the few complete surveys of the development of Croatian historiography, the Academy is usually mentioned only casually, concentrating mainly on its publishing activity. Hence, these texts tackle only the publishing role of the Academy appropriately, whereas the importance of the Academy in the development of Croatian historiography has been evaluated in exceptional cases only.
