Sažetak

Public enlightenment and civic education were Štampar’s obsessions since the beginnings of his career, but he also showed great interest in improving health education in schools as well as in teaching at faculties of medicine and providing long-term education of graduate physicians. He was first recommended for professorship as early as 1922, but it was only after the founding of the Banovina (Banate) of Croatia that he was granted a license for working at the Faculty of Medicine in Zagreb. He was 51 at the time. Soon afterwards, in 1940, he became Dean of the Faculty of Medicine in Zagreb but, unfortunately, World War II interrupted his career. He was interned in Austria during the war and, after its end, continued working as a university professor and director of the School of Public Health. In 1947, he became involved in undergraduate and postgraduate studies at the School of Public Health. From 1952 until his death in summer 1958, he was elected five times in a row as Dean of the Faculty of Medicine in Zagreb. During that time, he founded the second faculty of medicine in Croatia, in Rijeka in 1956. He also opened a college for nurses within the frame of the Faculty of Medicine in the mid-1950s, and introduced a two-year school for nurses, which they attended after completing elementary education. Thus, A. Štampar was effectively involved in faculty teaching for only 15 years, mainly towards the end of his life: two years before World War II and 13 years after it. Nevertheless, his work left a deep trace, above all in the form of constant efforts to affirm preventive medicine, hygiene, and social medicine.
