On this page are selected annotated bibliographies for monographs from Former Yugoslavia that do not truly belong under the category of national bibliography. Thus, there are bibliographies of particular publishers or institutions, bibliographies of dissertations, or bibliographies that simply were not intended to be comprehensive in scope. The initial section includes some general and specialized monographic bibliographies for Yugoslavia and for the individual countries of Former Yugoslavia. The latter sections, divided by country, cover Matica and Academy publications. The last two sections contain bibliographies of various major publishers or their catalogs from any of the countries of Former Yugoslavia and bibliographies of dissertations.

SPECIAL MONOGRAPHIC BIBLIOGRAPHIES

Iugoslaviae scriptores latini recentioris aetatis. Pars I. Opera scriptorum latinorum natione croatarum usque ad annum MDCCCXLVIII typis edita.

Juric, Sime. Zagrabiae: Academia scientiarum et artium slavorum meridionalium, 1968-1971. 3 vols. in 5
U of I Library Call Number: Main Stacks 016.87 Iu4 v.1, pt.1, v.1, pt.2

This bibliography has an unusual focus; it covers Latin language imprints printed or typeset in Yugoslavia or by Yugoslav authors/editors/translators up to 1848. Three volumes cover three areas: part one is for Croatia, part two is for Slovenia and part three is for Serbia (U of I lacks part two and part three). The bibliography listed immediately below on Slovenia is extracted from part two of this set. Entries give bibliographic data, locations for European libraries that hold the title and citations to bibliographies in which the works are cited. The volumes in part one list the entries by author or by title if there is no author with a systematic subject index in tom 2. Tom 2 also provides a name index with the names written in the modern spelling. The number in bold face indicates the page and the one following is the entry number on that page. The volumes on Croatia contain over 4000 entries. Although the introduction is only in Latin, this most likely will not be a problem for the reader interested in the unusual subject matter of the bibliography. The image below depicts an entry for a 1796 publication from Zagreb.

Covering Latin language imprints published or typeset in Slovenia or by Slovene authors/editors/translators up to 1848, this bibliography presents the material by author’s name or by title if there is no author, but also provides good subject and chronological access with a systematic index. Entries give bibliographic data, locations for European libraries that hold the title and citations to bibliographies in which the works are cited. This volume was extracted from part two of the bibliography annotated above and contains over 1700 entries. A short list of addenda appears at the end. Although the introduction is only in Latin, this most likely will not be a problem for the reader interested in the unusual subject matter of the bibliography.

Dissertations

Unfortunately, dissertations are not covered in the national bibliographies of the former Yugoslav countries, thus specialized bibliographies are the main avenue for locating them. Below are listed some bibliographies held at U of I of dissertations that were produced on Yugoslav territory. More dissertation bibliographies are held by other libraries in the United States, some of which are mentioned in Slavic Studies. A guide to bibliographies, encyclopedias, and handbooks. Janez Logar in his Uvod v bibliografijo also lists some bibliographies of dissertations. Some of the online catalogs for the countries of Former Yugoslav include dissertations. For instance, the descriptions of the catalogs of the national libraries of Croatia and Macedonia indicate that they include dissertations.
