Spomen-knjiga Matice hrvatske od godine 1842. do godine 1892.

Tade Smičiklas, Franjo Marković

This is a jubilee edition on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of Matica Hrvatska, with twelve images and one copy of the manuscript. An overview of the history, work and significance of Matica Hrvatska as the most important Croatian cultural instituti

The Memorial Book of the Croatian National Foundation from 1842 to 1892 was a ceremonial edition published in 1892 in Zagreb by the Croatian National Foundation. The authors were two prominent Croatian intellectuals – historian Tadija Smičiklas and writer and philosopher Franjo Marković.

The book was written on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the Croatian National Foundation (1842–1892) and represents a ceremonial overview of its half-century of activity. Smičiklas wrote an extensive historical overview of the founding, development and cultural role of the Foundation during the Illyrian movement, absolutism and the Croatian national revival. Marković contributed literary and cultural reviews.

The work contains a detailed chronological overview of the work of the Foundation: publishing activities, literary, scientific and educational undertakings, the struggle for the Croatian language and national culture, and cooperation with other Slavic peoples. It is richly illustrated with twelve pictures (portraits of the founders and deserving members) and one copy of the manuscript.

The Memorial Book has great documentary value because it provides numerous data, names of collaborators, lists of publications and an overview of cultural events in 19th-century Croatia. The style is solemn, patriotic and typical of that period. Today it is considered an important historical source for the study of the Croatian cultural and national revival and the activities of the Matica Hrvatska in its first fifty years.
