Ragusa Literature

Ragusa Literature refers to the literary tradition originating from the historical region of Ragusa, now Dubrovnik in Croatia, especially during the Renaissance and early modern periods. It includes writings in Latin, Croatian, and other languages that reflect the area's rich cultural, political, and religious life. Notable works include poetry, historical texts, and civic chronicles that emphasize humanist ideals, local history, and moral themes. Ragusa Literature is significant for its role in promoting literacy, civic identity, and European intellectual exchange during a time of complex political independence and regional influence.
