Sažetak
The title represents the first contact with the text and should offer concise information about its subject and content. Can titles of medieval notary records be completely trusted? In this paper, the variety of titles of notarial deeds, as well as the reasons for title variation, is explored, and the problem of notarial deeds in whose titles the synonymous stems refuta- and repudia- appear is particularly highlighted. The records of seven Zadar notaries published in five volumes of series Spisi zadarskih bilježnika, covering the period from 1279 to 1356, as well as the unpublished records of the Zadar notary Petrus, called Perençanus, from Padua (1365–92), were compared in a diachronic and synchronic analysis. The investigation into the problems of titles can serve as a guideline on how to facilitate the classification of notarial deeds in future digital editions of unpublished and reprinted notary records in cases where the title insufficiently refers to a particular type of contract or document for various reasons.
