Sažetak
In its forty years of existence and publication, the KAJ periodical has realized a capital pool of published contributions in the field of culture and art, the contents of which are an inevitable part of any further research and questioning in respect to the mentioned subject matter.
Within a broad scope of themes and thematic units, the interest of this paper is directed to the history of art area, with an overview of its segment that in a limited sense deals with monument heritage.
The Zagreb historical and art heritage corpus is prominent by its seriousness and significance. Papers on this matter entitled Umjetničke znamenitosti Zagreba (Zagreb artistic places worth seeing) have been published in a whole sequence of thematic KAJ issues and fully directed to the mentioned subject matter.
For instance, during the celebration of the nine-hundredth anniversary of the Zagreb archdiocese, the periodical contributed by publishing a successive sequence of new, exceptionally interesting articles the whole year round, with Zagreb as the subject matter. A second but not less significant segment successfully realized by the periodical is linked with the serial entitled Po dragome kraju (In the beloved region) where historical and artistic matter is presented from a row of locations in continental Croatia. One might even say that these were small monographs of a topographic character, and this especially gains in value as time goes by.
The Pauline heritage complex is a huge opus of exceptional artistic achievements by Pauline friars published by KAJ in a whole sequence of periodical copies and thematic issues, and the project entitled «Šest stoljeća kulture i umjetnosti u Lepoglavi» (Six centuries of culture and art in Lepoglava). KAJ is the first journal publishing high quality matter on the Pauline memorial heritage by engaging experts for certain areas. It has thereby become an unavoidable link in studying the mentioned subject matter.
The constellation of authors that have taken part actively by writing their contributions for KAJ belong to the top ones in Croatian history of art and culture, and in quite a number of cases their research work provided first class revelations and have established an almost new history for some segments in the discipline.
Thereby, on basis of its broadness of interests and approach to the historical and artistic and culturological issues, the periodical KAJ is one of the most respected journals, and its official classification is proof of it.
