Najstariji zapisnik općine Osijek–Tvrđa od 1705. do 1746. godine: Uvod u historiju Osijeka XVIII stoljeća
The earliest municipal minutes of Osijek’s Tvrđa, covering 1705–1746, accompanied by Mažuran’s introductory study of the city’s eighteenth-century history.
Ive Mažuran’s Najstariji zapisnik općine Osijek–Tvrđa od 1705. do 1746. godine combines a historical source edition with an introductory study of eighteenth-century Osijek. Its focus is the earliest municipal minute book of Tvrđa, offering material for the study of local administration and conditions in the first half of the century.
The publication has two principal sections. The introductory history establishes a framework for understanding the document, while the second section presents the municipal record covering 1705–1746. Historical interpretation and documentary evidence appear together, allowing readers to approach the city’s past through scholarly discussion and a surviving record of its administrative life.
Its particular interest lies in the treatment of Tvrđa as a distinct municipal community. The volume is relevant to researchers of Osijek and Slavonia, history students, and readers interested in urban institutions and historical topography.
A French summary and an index complete the publication. This specialised contribution to local history is especially suitable for collections devoted to Osijek and to the publication and interpretation of archival sources.
