Sažetak
The rich archival legacy of the Croatian historian and Herzegovinian Franciscan Dominik Mandić contains more than 35000 documents, including his correspondence with numerous prominent scholars. Among these scholars was also the eminent historian Aleksandar V. Solovjev, and their correspondence lasted from 1957 to 1966. This correspondence consists of twelve letters and four postcards that contain some interesting thoughts of these two historians about certain historical topics. Although their correspondence started with the letter in which Solovjev has criticized Mandić’s article about the origins of Vlachs, during the next several years they stayed in contact. The topic of these letters frequently was the Bosnian Church, especially during the period when Mandić was writing his well-known study »Bogomilska crkva bosanskih krstjana« [Bogomil Church of Bosnian Christians]. Namely, during his work on the study, Mandić was informing Solovjev about the progress, and it seems that Solovjev was pleased with the fact that both agreed on some fundamental questions about the Bosnian Church. Moreover, in his quest for the fragment from the Batal’s Gospel, which is kept in the State Public Library in Sankt Petersburg, Mandić asked Solovjev for help and Solovjev has sent him some articles. Their correspondence includes especially interesting letters in which Solovjev has criticized Mandić’s study about the Bosnian Church and Mandić’s replies to this critique. After this episode, Mandić continued to inform Solovjev about his scholarly work, sent him his published studies, and asked him for his opinion before the publication of the Italian edition of the book on the Bosnian Church. It seems that during the time they became friends, Solovjev helped Mandić to publish his study »Dalmatia in the Exarchate of Ravenna from the middle of the VI until the middle of the VIII century« in the prominent journal Byzantion. Moreover, Solovjev on the occurrence of the 75th Mandić’s birthday wrote an article for the Collection of studies, which was issued by Croatian Historical Institute in Rome.
