Canonical visitation of the bishop Augustin Miletić OFM to the parishes of Bosnian Posavina in spring and summer 1813

Izvornik opisa kanonskog pohoda biskupa fra Augustina Miletića (1813.-1831.) župama Bosanske Posavine u proljeće i ljeto 1813. g. čuva se u njegovoj pismenoj zaostavštini u franjevačkom samostanu Duha Svetoga u Fojnici. Osobno ga je vlastitom rukom napisao biskup Miletić. Premda ima samo četiri i pol stranice (28 x 10 cm), značajan je ne samo zbog toga što osvjetljava žalosno stanje katolika odnosno katoličkih župa u tom dijelu Bosanskog ejaleta tijekom prvih desetljeća 19. st., nego i zbog jezika kojim se služio biskup Miletić odnosno bosanski franjevci, običaja kojih se pridržavao na svojim kanonskim pohodima, naziva mjesta i krajeva kroz koje je prolazio i dr.

bishop Augustin Miletić OFM (1813-1831); Apostolic Vicariate in Ottoman Bosnia; Catholic parishes in Bosnian Posavina in 1813

In the Franciscan Monastery of the Holy Spirit in Fojnica, Bosnia and Herzegovina, amongst the written works of the bishop Augustin Miletić OFM (1813 – 1831), vicarius of the Apostolic Vicariate in Ottoman Bosnia, the original of the description of the canonical visitation to the Catholic parishes of the Bosnian Posavina is preserved. It was written by bishop Miletić himself. Although it comprises only four and a half sheets of paper, (28 cm x 10 cm), it’s essential not only for demonstrating the poor condition of the Catholics, i. e. Catholic parishes in the Bosnian Posavina part of the Bosnian Eyalet, but also for the language used by bishop Miletić and Bosnian Franciscans, costumes bishop adhered to during his canonical visitations to the Vicariate he administered, names of places and regions he passed through etc.
