Abstract

The author describes the writings of the Zadar semi-weeklies (Narodni list, Hrvatska kruna, Smotra dalmatinska and Il Dalmata) and the weekly newspaper (Risorgimento) in relation to the events in Istria and Rijeka before WWI. Since this was a time of momentous developments in Croatia under the Ban (the introduction of the commissariat) and in neighboring countries (the Balkan wars) the space allotted to Istrian and Rijeka themes was restricted. On the evidence of the writing in the Zadar newspapers the author concludes that the political and national orientation of particular papers played a decisive role in addressing a specific theme. Since at that time Zadar was a stage where harsh national conflicts between Italians and Croats were taking place this had an impact on the emotional investment which observers brought to following similar national conflicts in Istria and Rijeka.
