Sažetak
In Croatia, for over a thousand years, the Latin language was used for belles‐lettres, ­education, and scholarship, for politics and religion, for private correspondence and public administration, at times addressing the Croatian public, at times an international audience. To demonstrate the contexts of Latin writing, uses to which the classical culture was put in the corpus of Croatian Latin, and ways in which the Latin language was reshaped in Croatian texts, we pre­ sent and interpret selections from the Historia Salonitana by Thomas the Archdeacon of Split (c.1200–1268), an epistolary poem by Ilija Crijević (1463–1520), a report from the wartime mil­itary camp near Sisak by Nikola Mikac (1592), the autobiography of Bartol Kašić (1575–1650), a Jesuit missionary in the Ottoman lands, a Nativity canticum written in an artfully archaic Latin by Ignjat Đurđević (1575–1650), and a free‐verse poem by Ton Smerdel (1904–1970).
