Summary
Croatian biographical lexicon is comprehensive and lexicographically complete biographical and bibliographic edition. It contains detailed biographies of Croats who left an important mark in their country and the world, as well as members of other nations who participated in the life of Croatian countries, a description of the circumstances in which they created and statements about their work. The exceptional encyclopedia of national biography summarizes thousands of lives, great men and artists, tragic destinies and adventurous ventures, as well as modest contributions to which time has given fundamental importance in an overview that concerns every contemporary. The fact that many biographies, including those of the last century's contributors born before 1945, are presented critically for the first time makes the undertaking exceptional and valuable. Although long-term, but with far-reaching reach, the Croatian Biographical Lexicon is based on verified and accurate information, so it is a special step in the reevaluation and interpretation of the national bibliographic material. A capital edition whose systematicity, precision, factual reliability, stylistic clarity and conciseness and the selection of relevant facts ensure lasting value means, in a general and individual sense, a personal framework of identity.
