Sažetak
The oldest known Croatian translation of one of the Peter Pan narratives, titled Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens, was by Dr Ivana Rossi, as stated on the copyright page of the book. Her identity, life and work has not been of academic interest until just recently. The answers to questions about who she was and what she did are found in the unpublished archives kept in the State Archives in Zagreb and in the Archive of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Zagreb. Ivana Rossi was born in Glina on 5 May 1892. From 1902 to 1910 she attended the Temporary Lyceum for Girls in Zagreb. After successfully passing the final matura exam, in 1910 (only nine years after women had been allowed to enrol in full-time studies) Ivana enrolled in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Zagreb, where she studied Philosophy and Physics. On 3 July 1916 she defended her dissertation titled “Osnovne misli filozofije Henri Bergsona” [The Basic Philosophical Thoughts of Henri Bergson] and became the first woman in Croatia with a PhD in philosophy. That same year she was employed at the Royal Gymnasium for girls in Zagreb. She stayed there until 1946 when she started working in the Partisan Gymnasium (the following year the school changed its name to the Marshal Tito Gymnasium) and in a little after two years she was transferred again, this time to the Third (male) Gymnasium in Zagreb. She was buried in Mirogoj cemetery in Zagreb in 1963.
