Perception of Early Croatian History in the Contemporary British Historiography

Rad analizira članke povijesnih leksikona, rječnika, kronologija i drugih općih pregleda povijesti objavljenih u Britaniji u drugoj polovici 20. stoljeća te pronalazi sadržaje koji se tiču hrvatske proπlosti. Prateći percepciju povijesnih procesa na hrvatskom području od ranog srednjeg vijeka do sredine 19. stoljeća, rad vrednuje kvalitetu sadržaja, upozorava na nedovoljnu informativnost te upozorava na perifernu ulogu koja je pridana Hrvatskoj u spomenutom tipu literature.Current British encyclopaedic and other similar editions that give general historical information give only piecemeal and incomplete data about the earliest period of Croatian history. Information about Croatian mediaeval history (creation of the Hungarian-Croat kingdom, Croatian acceptance of the Habsburg rule, period of Ottoman Turks occupation of Croatian areas) is also limited and incomplete. Much more information is given on Croatian 19th century history but Croatian history is still observed only as an element in the history of more important political entities which ruled Croatian territories during that period. Historical events and developments in Croatia are mentioned only if they also had an influence on developments outside Croatia (Military border, Zrinski magnate family, Uskoks of Senj, Illyrian provinces, 1848-1849 revolution). Obviously Croatian history is still largely unknown to British historians and public. Much information is missing and the existing information can lead to wrong conclusions about Croatian history. Without new and more comprehensive articles on Croatia in the future British historical editions it is highly unlikely that British reader will get an objective picture of Croatian history
