Summary/Abstract: In 1931, the Serbian Royal Academy decided to open a new department for historical material from the Dalmatian archives in its "Proceedings for the History, Language and Literature of the Serbian People". Liber notariare, with material from 1336—1421, paid special attention to the Dubrovnik archives. age and diversity of material stands out in the first place among the archives in our country. // Just as Dubrovnik today attracts the attention of every traveler with its position and appearance, so its past is strange, very changeable and always interesting. Dubrovnik, like many other towns on the east coast of the Adriatic, developed near the end of a turbulent period of migration. Then the population of the old Epidaurus (Cavtat) took refuge in the inaccessible place of Dubrovnik, whose cliffs fall vertically into the sea, and which is protected on the dry side by the high hill of St. Srđa od Brgata. The Roman population of Dubrovnik was instructed from the first beginnings in navigation and trade, but very early it developed a lively action to expand its territory beyond the tame and fertile surroundings of Župa, Rijeka and Šumet. Thus, Romanesque Dubrovnik came into contact with the neighboring South Slavic tribes very early, and during the 10th, 11th and 12th centuries it developed safe and fast, while Latin remained the official language of the state and the church during the Middle Ages. // THIS VOLUME HAS BEEN PUBLISHED in 1934 by the SERBIAN ROYAL ACADEMY as Volume III, Book II of its series ЗБОРНИК. ИСТОРИЈУ, ЈВЗИК И КЊИЖЕВНОСТ СРПСКОГ НАРОДА (PROCEEDINGS. HISTORY, LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE OF THE SERBIAN PEOPLE).
