Sažetak
Autor u obliku kratkog priloga donosi osnovne podatke i neke manje poznate činjenice iz života i znanstvenog rada istaknutog hrvatskog medievista Branka Fučića (1920. – 1999.). Posebno se pak ističe njegovo područje rada na istarskim srednjovjekovnim zidnim slikama, te glagoljičkim natpisima i grafitima. Upravo je preko fresaka Fučić ušao u glagoljicu i uopće slavistiku, davši na koncu tako i jednom i drugom znanstvenom području nezaobilazan doprinos, a čiju važnost i izvornost potvrđuju brojna recentna istraživanja. Također se donosi okvirna periodizacija znanstvenog rada Branka Fučića kao zalog budućim istraživanjima, a u koja će – što dosad nije bio slučaj – morati biti uključena njegova pisana zaostavština i knjižna građa.

Napomena
Branko Fučić was a distinguished Croatian scholar of the Istrian region, the islands and littoral of the Gulf of Kvarner (Quarnero), the wider Zadar area and other territories of Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina, who dedicated much of his life and scholarly and artistic work to art history, Slavic linguistics, archaeology, ethnology, literature (under the pseudonym Toni Tinov) and other fields. He was born in the village of Bogovići on the island of Krk on 8 September 1920. He graduated from the Faculty of Arts and Letters in Zagreb in 1944 with degrees in several fields: art history and culture, as well as Classical archaeology, Croatian and general history, and the Italian language. In 1965, he earned his doctorate at the Faculty of Arts and Letters of the University of Ljubljana with a dissertation on “Medieval Wall Painting in Istria”. He was a full member of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts in Zagreb and a corresponding member of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts in Ljubljana. He authored numerous works and contributed to many others: Istarske freske (‘Istrian Frescoes’), Leksikon ikonografije, liturgike i simbolike zapadnog kršćanstva (‘Lexicon of the Iconography, Liturgy and Symbolism of Western Christianity’), Glagoljski natpisi (‘Glagolitic Inscriptions’), Apsyrtides, Vincent iz Kastva (‘Vincent of Kastav’), Terra incognita and many others. He received numerous honours and awards for his scholarly and research work in the field of Croatian art history, culture and Glagolism. Pope John Paul II proclaimed him a Knight Commendator of the Order of St. Gregory the Great (Eques commendator Ordinis Sancti Gregorii Magni), while the Catholic Theological Faculty in Zagreb granted him an honorary doctorate. In 1985, the prestigious Herder Award of the University of Vienna was conferred to him for his Glagoljski natpisi and his overall work in the field of medieval wall painting, iconography and epigraphy. Branko Fučić died in Rijeka on Sunday, 31 January 1999, and he was buried, according to his wishes, at the old St. Apollinaris Cemetery in the Dubašljansko Field.
