Summary/Abstract: This paper publishes several documents which show the reactions in Bosnia and Herzegovina to the publishing of the Declaration on the Status and Name of the Croatian Literary Language and the Suggestion for thought of a group of writers from Belgrade. The introduction emphasises the main characteristics of the time when these documents were published, as well as their significance for the intensity of reactions in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The presented documents allow us to understand the level of interest shown by the Bosnian and Herzegovinian society for the then current debate about the language issue. At the same time, these documents can also be of interest to those engaged in the study of the history of language and orthography.
