Sažetak
Cunichiana, the collection of Latin works by the Croatian Latinist Rajmund Kunić, kept in the Archives ofthe Friars Minor in Dubrovnik, contains 61 manuscripts. The majority ofthese manuscripts, most of which have never been published, are being identified and described in this paper. Thirty-two manuscripts contain only Kunić’s texts, twenty ofwhich are established to be Kunić’s autographs. With the exception ofKunić’s seven letters addressed to Ivan Marija Matijašević (MS 2341), all the remaining autographs contain epigram collections on cards (MSS 984-986, 988, 990, 993-1003, 2246, 2248) and the collection Endecasìllabi (MS 991 ). Twelve manuscript collections ofLatin poems, including Kunić’s verses, should also be added to the former. The catalogue embodies 14 manuscripts on Kunić, written generally after his death (“in obitum Raymundi Cunichii”): the elegy by Giuseppe Taruffi, eulogy by Đuro Bašić, biography by Gioachino Tosi, epigrams and elegies by Bernard Zamagna, elegy by Francesco Appendini and epitaphs by Stefano Antonio Morcelli and Vlaho Stulli. Here, we also find the copies ofthe letter written by Pope Leo XII to the printer Martecchini on the occasion ofthe edition of Kunić’s Epigrammata in 1827 and the indices ofthe epigram collections carried out by Rafo Radelja. Three manuscripts are of dubious origin (MSS 617, 724, 1978). The introductory part of the paper illustrates the whereabouts and condition of Kunić’s literary heritage and its relocating from Rome to the Archives ofthe Friars Minor in Dubrovnik. Rafo Radelja deserves great credit for gathering the scattered heritage (MSS 1156, 594) and Luko Stulli, Antun Agić, Rafo Radelja, Josip Bernard Grubišić, Inocent Čulić and Marko Marinović have been noted as copyists. Urban Talija, the librarian ofthe Friars Minor between the two World Wars, received a manuscript from an anonymous Dubrovnik lady in 1936 (MS 301). The latest acquisition Raymundi Cunichii Ragusini varia epigrammata ad Musam was obtained from the Island ofKrk in 1938 (MS 1136).
