Abstract
The enormous bibliography of Ivan Kukuljević-Sakcinski, the great Croatian writter, scientist, nobleman, pohtical worker and cultural enterprisen of 19th Century, is, in it's enormus part, still unresearched. This counts especially for his letters. Kukuljević's personal letters to his familly are held in Varaždin City Museum, and in this article some parts of this personal corespondency
are published for the first time, with some stilistic comments.
Also, Kukuljević's letters contains corespondency with some of the most imoportant men of his time in Croatia, for exemple historian Franjo Rački, president of Croatian Academy of Sciences. And Arts Seven Kukuljević's letters to Rački, held in Academy's Archive in Zagreb, and 45 Rački's letters to Kukuljević, held in Varaždin City Museum, shows us the exchange of very interesting and significant thoughts beetween two relevant figures. This corespondency could be concerned as a usefuU historic document about Kukuljević's and Rački's works and projects. In 1860's they exchanged the
data's about slavic liturgic and glagohtic monuments. Marko Marulić's poetiy.
Pop Dukljanin's Chronicle, pohtical situation... They exchanged thoughts about most everything valuable to their wide interests.
It can definitely serve as valuable and useful sing-post in research of Kukuljević's literal work and opus of both authors, and with certain need of its complete pubhshing.
