Sažetak
Following the footsteps of Wheler (1675), Adam (1763), Wilkinson (1844) and other scholar- travelers, historian of architecture T.G. Jackson finds himself immersed in a quite different world in Dalmatia. During his three journeys to the region in the 1880s, Jackson discovers a borderland fractured so many times by various dichotomies, yet able to absorb and embrace them all. In his influential three- volume work on Dalmatia, the Englishman takes on the task of exploring and describing the riddle of these oppositions of ancient and modern, Latin and Slavonic, coastal and landlocked, Venetian and Ottoman, 'high culture' and 'semi-barbarism'. This paper discusses these images, and the layers of historical and contemporary Dalmatia in the accounts of the famous architect.
