Sažetak
The panel proposes a new study project that starts from the 16, 000 documentary sources of the "Croatian Maritime Regesta, 18th century" by Nikola Čolak published in three volumes (Padova 1985 and 1993, Split 2017) and outlines the main lines for the transcription and publication of further 80, 000 maritime archival documents already identified and marked, from which we can deduce a new perspective on the history of Jews during the eighteenth century, starting from the Adriatic to map the most varied routes across the Mediterranean. The project is divided in three different sections: connections and collaborations between different Universities and Institutes on the both coasts of the Adriatic (primarily for the transcription of the documents), then between small entities scattered throughout the territory (i.e. Jewish or maritime museums) and finally organization of forum and symposiums 1- 2 times a year where scholars from both sides of the Adriatic can meet and compare the results of new studies. Those conferences will be organized in aforementioned small localities along the Adriatic coasts in Italy and Croatia. An important part of the project is the work already accomplished in the last 3 years as preliminary tests to analyze the relevance and validity of studies for Jewish history and beyond. Here we have 544 new documents as the result of this preliminary research. Another important filter and analysis tool is the methodology used and created "ad hoc" not only as an initial approach to the first 16, 000 documents published but in anticipation of the whole project including 100, 000 in collaboration with Piergabriele Mancuso from The Medici Archive Project. The panel intends to present the project and the collaboration of three researchers in the mapping a new historical reality that concerns Jewish history as an active component of Adriatic and Mediterranean living among a multitude of peoples and nations that were denoting an incredible entrepreneurial vivacity based on the family and commercial ties of old and new Jewish families.
