Sažetak
In September 1792, an anonymous treatise entitled Reflexiones de reformatione cleri Zagrabiensis was published in Zagreb. In response to it, already at the beginning of 1793, Josip Keresturi published, also anonymously, a study entitled Vindiciae cleri Zagrabiensis. Both publications were closely related to the episcopal visitation of Bishop Vrhovac to the Zagreb Cathedral Archdeaconry (1792 – 1794). Therefore, the purpose of this article is to analyze both publications, as narrative historical sources written in Latin; since both tentions of the person behind these studies. By carefully reading these texts, one can easily conclude that Reflexiones reflects the reform policy of Bishop Vrhovac, and that this text was not written just to denigrate the Zagreb chapter. Consequently, Keresturi’s study Vindiciae cleri Zagrabiensis was not created only in defense of the chapter, but also reflects the scope of Vrhovac’s reforms, as well the problems within the Zagreb diocese and the mentality of the protagonists of this confrontation.
