Juraj Križanić: Sabrana građa o 300-obljetnici smrti (1683-1983)
Collected materials on the 300th anniversary of his death (1683-1983)
Križanić, born in Obrho near Ribnik, was educated by the Jesuits, studied philosophy in Graz and theology in Bologna and Rome. Inspired by the idea of unifying the Slavs under the Catholic Church, he went to Russia in 1659, but was exiled to Siberia because of his reform ideas. There he wrote important works, including "Politics" and "Grammar", advocating a common Slavic language and cultural connection. Golub emphasizes Križanić's versatility - he dealt with theology, philosophy, language, music, economics and politics - and his vision of ecumenism and globalization, far ahead of his time.
The book emphasizes Križanić's devotion to God and his homeland, his modesty and suffering, but also his intellectual courage. Golub portrays him as the "Croatian Don Quixote", whose ideas, such as a more just world, have remained relevant. The work includes an inventory of Križanić's works and a rich bibliography, making it a key source for understanding his legacy.
