Summary: This project encompasses themes of economic, political and
cultural history of Dalmatia which untill now were not the subject of
thorough research. The chronological span of the project runs from the 9th
till the 20th centuries. For the chronologicaly earliest period of "rullers
of national dinasty" the main subject of research will be the charters of
those rullers (from diplomatical and historical standpoints) and their
influence on the charters of later Bosnia-Hum rullers. For the period of
High Middle Ages the subject of research will be the history of coastal
towns, mainly their economic and cultural ties with nearby Croatian feudal
lords. For the period of the rule of Venice in Dalmatia greatest attention
will be payed to the economic and political aspects of the life of province
during the 18th and 19th centuries (i.e. city of Zadar in the 19th century;
economy of Dalmatia from the middle of the 18th till the middle of the 19th
century; society and economy of Dalmatia from 1906 to 1914; the Party of
Rights in Dalmatia from 1880 to 1918). Also the system of the old measures
in the Northern Dalmatia will be the subject of thorough research.
