Abstract
The paper aims to describe the work of Grgur Čevapović (1786–1830), the Croatian writer from the first half of the 19th century, and of the Croatian linguist Dragutin Boranić (1876 – 1955), who in the early phase of his career very lucidly evaluated Čevapović and his Croatian language. Boranić concluded that Čevapović had written in the language which was mostly used by the Croats in his time too (1898), but this fact has remained insufficiently recognized up to the present time. Obviously, Grgur Čevapović had a very significant position in the standardisation processes of the Croatian language at the end of the 18th and at the beginning of the 19th centuries but neither his nor Boranić’s positions have been sufficiently noticed in that context.
