Sažetak
The multidisciplinary and multicultural issues of the Dubrovnik-Rijeka sailing ship Stefano have become controversial in many aspects of the prudent approach. Though opinions are still extremely debatable in the scientific and professional communities, they remain areas of active research. However, the arguable global maritime history makes it difficult to conduct information and highlight intriguing topics. A stronger thesis has been proposed and defended by some researchers over recent decades. The books and papers under review engage with and react to the swirling debate about influential and controversial body of ideas. Relative agreement among experts is the lowest by now. Ideally, many international scholars can extend their findings to wider public before conclusions. Speakers may verbally indicate their unease with expressing controversial view. The issue is complex and answers the question of who should have the authority and responsibility to determine the completed research. In particular, it seems still controversial whether the ship is from Dubrovnik or Rijeka, whether the issues are of the Italian, Australian or Croatian maritime heritage? The central research questions are about the crew, the ship remains, as well as the location and cause of the shipwreck, in Western Australia, October 27, 1875. However, many will welcome productive debate and clarification of the hypothesis. Taken together, our quantitative results are important, providing insights into this complex problem. The qualitative methodology is used with inductive and comparative methods, analyses of case studies and historical documents. Our analysis conclusions do not support several of the controversial and provocative claims in the literature. The major contribution has been done for forthcoming publications on the maritime history of the community, especially, the role of Croatian cultural and maritime heritage within the global environment.
