Sažetak
The author in the article addresses some questions connected with the Act of Abjuration in Biljino Polje and suggests a historiographic explanation different from the prevailing one. He deals with the church and legal position of the papal legate Ivan de Casamaris and explores to what order of papal representatives he belonged . In accordance with these conclusions he offers an opinion concerning the relationship of Pope Innocent III and the papal Curia regarding the question of the orthodoxy of the Bosnian religious community in general. He interprets the Act of Abjuration in Biljino Polje as a consequence of a compromise from the viewpoint of the Curia between the political circumstances in Bosnia and the theological principles of the Christians, a compromise resulting from the pope’s pastoral care for the salvation of the faithful and the perception of Ban Kulin as the worldly protector who was indispensable to these efforts.
