THE ANALYSIS OF GEOGRAPHICAL CONTENT OF THE MAP BY STJEPAN GLAVAČ

Petrica Novosel-Žic

Sažetak

All his intellectual and physical capacities, as well as his artistic talent,
Stjepan Glavač directed to his compound and very significant cartographic work. It is the geographical map of Croatia of 1673. As the work of one author, being done in the of great political unsafety and limited technical pos­sibilities, it really fascinates.
Therefore, all unintentionally made mistakes and deviations from the
geographic facts which can be ascertained compared to the modern maps, should be observed in the time, conditions and circumstances in which Glavač worked. And they were extremely hard and dangerous. Glavač's map, as the first detailed repesentation of although just a part of present-day Croatia, is useful for paleogeographic, historic and other studies. As a cartographic and general-culture document Glavač's map represents a valuable contribution to the national inheritance of Croatia.
