Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The author briefly presents the inauguration of Bishop Mirko Ožegović Barlabaševeški in Senj on 31st of August 1834. He uses some available descriptions written in Croatian from some of Ožegović’s biographers from the 19th century, the description of the inauguration in the Agramer Politische Zeitung newspaper published in German, the bishop’s presentation speech in Senj cathedral in Latin and one praise written in Latin for this occasion in Karlovac. In addition he has published one poem in Croatian, which was also written in Karlovac for Ožegović’s inauguration into the bishop’s service into the Senj and Modruš or Krbava diocese. Mirko Ožegović was not only a person who gave a lot to Senj with his dedicated work for 35 years as a bishop, he was also had an important role within Croatian society and its political scene in the first half of 19th century. He followed the ideas of Croatian national revival, and was a great benefactor and initiator of many charitable activities. He was greatly appreciated and respected even during his life. His inauguration in Senj in August 1834 was a grand ceremony. The citizens of Senj accepted him with exceptional enthusiasm. The celebration took place over some days. When bishop Ožegović died at the beginning of 1869 they gave him a respectable funeral wake to his last resting place among the catacombs below the sanctuary of Senj cathedral.
