Sažetak
This paper is divided into two parts: the first is a short philological introduction providing the context for the second one – the first translation of selected fragments from Topographia Hiberniae by Gerald of Wales from Latin into Croatian. Also known as Giraldus Cambrensis or Gerald de Barry, the author was an eminent intellectual figure, a clergyman and politician from 12th century Britain. His tripartite work described the landscape, flora and fauna of Ireland, narrating at the same time miracles that can be read in allegorical key, and information of ambiguous credibility about the people of Ireland. The translated fragments should provide a glimpse into the vivid imaginative world we find in this writing.
