Sažetak
The first part of the paper gives a short account of the importance Italian archives have for the research of the history of the East Adriatic coast, especially the town of Modruš and the surrounding area. The paper also gives attention to the research related significance of archival fonds in Italian state archives (from Veneto to Abruzzo and Apulia) and illustrates the material relative to the research of the migrations from Modruš to Italy across the Adriatic. The second part of the paper covers the general indications of Croatian cross-Adriatic migrations (especially to the Marche and Abruzzo regions) and points out to the fundamental historiographic results, as well as to the fact that emigrations from Modruš can be taken as a constituent part of one-time Croatian emigration to the other side of the Adriatic. The third andmost extensive part dealswith the basic historical components of the activities of the Modruš emigrant community in Venice in the period from themid-14th century to the first decades of the 16th century. On the basis of the archival material found in the State Archives of Venice, the paper explores the course and intensity of emigration from Modruš, emigrants’ new residences, their occupations and economic status, family life, religion and attitudes towards Venice churches and spiritual figures. The conclusion once again stresses the importance of Italian archives for the research of the history of emigrations to the other side of the Adriatic, but also for the research of other historical components of the town in the late Middle Ages and early modern age.
