Historia Salonitana i Historia Salonitana maior – Gunjačin pristup

Autorica se bavi historiografskim opusom Stjepana Gunjače koji se odnosi na dva srednjovjekovna spisa poznata pod nazivima Historia Salonitana (Salonitanska povijest) Tome Arhiđakona iz XIII. st. i Historia Salonitana maior (Veća salonitanska povijest). S obzirom na važnost tih spisa za hrvatsku srednjovjekovnu povijest, promišljanja koja je o međusobnom odnosu dvaju tekstova iznio i za koja se snažno zalagao Stjepan Gunjača obilježila su hrvatsku medievalistiku prvog dijela druge polovine XX. st. U radu se razmatraju neka rješenja koja je Gunjača predložio analizirajući dijelove Salonitanske povijesti kao i činjenice iz života Tome Arhiđakona. Također se na temelju današnjih spoznaja i stavova većeg broja autora pokušava utvrditi Gunjačin prinos navedenoj temi, ali i upozoriti na neke neodržive teze koje je zastupao.

Although most historians before Gunjača considered Historia Salonitana maior to be a later work and a compilation that contains some parts of the Historia Salonitana and the original material, respectively the conclusions of the church councils in Salonitana and Split in the 6th, 10th and 12th centuries as well as some charters from the 12th century and the epitaph of King Zvonimir, Gunjača, motivated by Baradin’s thoughts, held the opinion that Historia Salonitana maior was the original template by Thomas and that Historia Salonitana was the final compilation. He opposed N. Klaić’s view regarding the reading of the words: urborum or serborum in the r
