Sv. Martin u glagoljaškoj tradiciji senjsko-vinodolskog kraja
Saint Martin in the Glagolitic Tradition of Senj-Vinodol Region

Summary/Abstract: The cult and tradition of St. Martin in Croatia presents an especially rich and diverse research area. In this work the author is focused on the Senj-Vinodol region, which is very interesting and especially related to medieval studies. Glagolitic tradition as an indigenous Croatian cultural expression is especially important for this region where the west European Christian spiritualism through a thousand year’s tradition was implanted. This was expressed even through the cult of St. Martin of Tours, connected with some Slavic forms. This is present on many Glagolitic epigraphs. Among those is the famous St. Martin’s relief from Senj from 1330, which is a symbiosis of Antiquity and west European Christianity as well as a heritage of the Slavic Apostles – Cyril and Method.
