Abstract
Ivan Milčetić's (1853-1921) biographers have divided his overall scholarly work into several large groups: the first is made up of his literary-historical works, the second of his philological research, while the third covers his works in the fields of ethnology and folkloristics. Milčetić's ethnographic and folkloristic research made a valuable contribution to the development of ethnological thought in Croatia and he is regarded in Croatia as one of the founders of Croatian ethnology as an independent field of scholarship. Comments are given in the article on his views of narodopis, or ethnology, and then on his efforts in the conception of the first ethnological journal in Croatia, The Journal of the Folk Life and Customs of the Southern Slavs, which was the result of his developed conception of scholarly work as a whole, and of ethnological and folkloristic papers, with particular reference and ethnological analysis of travelogue reflections on the Moravian, Lower Austrian and Western Hungarian Croats, whom he visited in 1895 and 1898.
