Sažetak
The oldest musical notation of Croatian folk music dates from the mid-16th century. Already in The Renaissance diverse intension regarding notation came to the fore: some wanted to record folk music as faihtfully as possible, others wanted to intervene as authors. In the church, under the influence of the Reformation and later the Counter-Reformation, tendencies emerged to single out the components of folk music that could be used for missionary and pastoral work. In the Baroque pariod transcriptions of Croatian folk music were no longer engrossed in the need fro precision and faithfulness. The Enlightenment could no longer reconcile the principles of faithfulness with its own ideology. So even the "myth of otherness" i sometimes still paradoxically and ahistorically present in attitudes toward the oldest notations of folk music and ecpecially toward the folk history of "small nations" like Croatia.
