THE CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN JELAČIĆ AND HIS COUNCIL FROM 1848 TO 1850 AS A HISTORICAL SOURCE

Abstract

Autor analizira korespondenciju između bana Josipa Jelačića i Banskog vijeća od rujna 1848. do raspuštanja Vijeća krajem lipnja 1850. Korespondencija predstavlja značajan povijesni izvor, posebno za istraživanje hrvatskog političkog pokreta u doba revolucije u Habsburškoj monarhiji 1848.–1849., odnosno njegove političke, ali i vojne, privredne, kulturne i crkvene aspekte.In this article, the author analyzes the correspondence between the Croatian Ban (Governor) Josip Jelačić and his council from September 1848 to June 1850, the date when the Council was disbanded. The correspondence is important as a historical source, especially during the revolutionary period in the Habsburg Monarchy, from the summer of 1848 to fall 1849. During this period, the Ban\u27s Council acted de facto as the government of an independent Croatia. This correspondence is not only important for the political history of Croatia, but for its military, economic, cultural, and religious history as well
