Summary/Abstract: Antun Radić (1868—1919) is considered the' founder of Croatian ethnology. The author selected from his voluminous opus, although mostly of journalistic- -political character, those passages where she thought Radić was presenting his theoretical views. The article brings out Radić’s ideas about the content and span of the subject of ethnological discipline, about the need for and the sense of ethnological research, as well as about methods of work. The author critically evaluates these views, relating them to the present state of the art. Also, she demonstrates what was the nature of Radić’s influence, and its extent, on subsequent, even some contemporary, ethnological research in Croatia.
