Abstract
The thesis deals with an overview of the influence of the papacy of Innocent III on the area of medieval Croatia and Slavonia in the period between 1198 and 1216. An analysis of the various sources such as papal letters or contemporary and , provides the fundamental guidelines of papal affairs, specifically with regard to everyday Church life and crusading. The analysis of the respective sources provides a grasp of how the Croatian area is viewed in the papal sphere and precisely which goals the papacy is trying to accomplish in that period. Cases such as the excommunication of the elect of Zadar and the conquest of Zadar by the Crusaders are especially important in that understanding. The whole of these events is transposed in a relation with the framework of „new Christianity“, which includes parts of Europe north of Croatia. This aspect enables a more comprehensive view of the perspective of Innocent III rather than limiting itself to the narrow scope of the Croatian area. This allows the decisions and letters of the pope to be placed in a supranational framework which is characteristic of the medieval papacy, especially that of Innocent III.
