Sažetak
The paper explores and presents the Illyrian Capuchin Province together with the election of Tomislav Šagi as the Provincial, as well as what had preceded that election. To this end, the paper brings a brief overview of the historical socio-political and ecclesiastical-religious framework within which the Province operated and within which the election of Tomislav Šagi, the Capuchin Franciscan, for the Provincal of the Illyrian Capuchin Province, took place in July 1955. After a brief familiarization with the external, non-ecclesiastical circumstances of the society at the time and with the preventive arrest of Tomislav Šagi by the civil authorities, there is a general overview and familiarization with the Illyrian Capuchin Province from a historical, statistical, and administrative point of view. This is followed by a brief description of the positions Fr. Tomislav Šagi held before the provincial elections, from 1949 to 1955. In the end, we explore the preparations for the Provincial Chapter and its session, and we present the results of the Provincial Chapter held on July 19, 1955, in the OFM Capuchin monastery in Varaždin, where Tomislav Šagi was elected as the Provincial of Illyrian Capuchin Province. The motive for researching the given and previously unexplored topic is the 50th anniversary of the abolition (1967 – 2017) of the former binational and bilingual Capuchin province called Illyrian, composed of Croatian and Slovenian friars, while the author used exclusively previously unresearched archival original documents.
