Petar Strčić
Abstract
In this article, the author deals with the founding and initiation of »NAŠA SLOGA« (Our Unanimity), the first Croation newspaper, published for the benefit of the Croats living in Istria and on the Kvarner islands, during the 19th century. The launching of this newspaper in the year 1870, at Trieste, can be recorded as the primal turning point in the nation's political movement and national revival. During the 1860's, the island of Krk was one of the Croation movement's strong footholds in the Austrian province Istria. Thus it was quite natural that the people of Krk also directly participated in the action involved in the founding and launching of the afore-named newspaper. A prominent figure amongst them was Anton Karabaić from Punat, living at the time in Trieste, he subsequently became the first editor of »Naša Sloga«. In its first year of publication »Naša Sloga« devoted some of its attention to Krk. Some of the items which »Naša Sloga« has published are reprinted in this article and are at the end followed by a copy of the necrology on Anton Karabaić, which was previously published by »Naša Sloga« in the year 1906.
