This is a translation of a book by the Croatian historian and officer in the French and Habsburg armies, Ivan Katalinic (1779–1847), entitled Memorie degli avvenimenti successi in Dalmazia dopo la caduta della Repubblica Veneta con un saggio sull’amministrazione pubblica veneta e del Regno d’Italia, which was published in Split in 1841. As an educated officer and intellectual, Katalinic first wrote the first modern history of Dalmatia from the earliest times to the fall of the Venetian Republic (Storia della Dalmazia, 1834–1835), which he based largely on the works of I. Lucic, D. Farlati and I. Kreljanovic Albinoni. Written in a pre-Renaissance spirit, his History of Dalmatia caused positive echoes in Illyrian circles. The Records of Past Events in Dalmatia represent a continuation of the History of Dalmatia, and were written based on the author's experiences and contemporary material, and are significantly more reliable and valuable in historiographic terms. Katalinic's focus is on the turbulent political events in Dalmatia during the Napoleonic Wars from 1797, in which he himself participated. With an interesting narrative, supported by details, he meticulously follows the revolutionary and sometimes bloody turmoil in Dalmatian cities and hinterland at the time of the collapse of Venetian rule and the arrival of the French army.
