GRADIŠĆE CROATIAN PROTESTANT LITERATURE
The Protestant literature of the Gradišće Croatians is an integral
part of Croatian Protesant literature. The central figures of Gradišće
Croatian Protestant literature were Štipan Konzul and Grgur Mekinić-
-Pythiraeus. After the Croatian printing house in Urach ceased its
operations (in 1565), Štipan Konzul and Antun Dalmatin printed Po-
stila in Croatian in Regensburg in 1568. This work was intended for
the Croats of Western Hungary (today's Gradišće Croats). Later, at
the invitation of Ivan Weispriach, Štipan Konzul came to live and
work among the Croats of Western Hungary and died there in 1579.
Until now little was known about the second most important Gra
dišće Croatian Protestant writer, Grgur Mekinić. Two of his boOks
of songs survive, entitled Duševne pesne, printed in 1609 and 1611 in
Manlius' (at that time Farkaš's) printing works in Sv. Križ (Deutsch-
kreutz, Keresztur). Mekinic's song-books are the oldest printed Croa
tian church song-books. Apart from Štipan Konzul and Grgur Mekinić
there followed a number of Protestant writers among the Gradišće
Croats (the Zvonarić brothers, Stefan Klaseković, Juraj Fistrović, Ste
fan Lošić, etc.). However, these writers did not write in Croatian.
