Sažetak
The paper investigates the contribution of Vjekoslav Klaić to the knowledge of the geography of Bosnia. The research was based on Klaić’s work Bosna. Podatci o zemljopisu i poviesti Bosne i Hercegovine. Prvi dio: zemljopis (Bosnia. Information on the Geography and History of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Part One: Geography) published in 1878. At first, the paper establishes the differences and similarities between Klaić’s work and the work Zemljopis i poviestnica Bosne (Geography and History of Bosnia), which was written and published in 1851 by a Franciscan, writer and politician Ivan Franjo (Frano) Jukić. That was done because Klaić heavily relied on that Jukić’s work.
At the same time, the paper also presents Klaić’s work. In particular, it gives the demographic and ethnographic picture of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Furthermore, it shows the topography of Bosnia and Herzegovina according to the areas determined by Klaić: Bosnia, Turkey, Croatia, Herzegovina, and Old Serbia. This paper testifies to Klaić’s knowledge of the geography of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
