The census of 1817 (Popolazione del Circolo di Ragusa dell’anno 1817), taken by the Austrian authorities, is the oldest individual enumeration of the City of Dubrovnik. Based on the data available, this article analyses the spatial distribution of the patrician real property within the urban area of Dubrovnik. Although the nobility who ruled the Dubrovnik Republic until its fall in 1808 represented merely 4.02% of the overall population, the proportion of the real property in the City that they either owned or occupied (11.57%) exceeded the nobility’s size by three times. Patrician houses were usually located in the elite City sexteria: lining the Placa or in the parallel streets next to it.
1817年人口普查(Popolazione del Circolo di Ragusa dell 'anno 1817)由奥地利当局进行，是杜布罗夫尼克市最古老的个人统计。本文在现有数据的基础上，对杜布罗夫尼克市区贵族房产的空间分布进行了分析。虽然统治杜布罗夫尼克共和国直至1808年解体的贵族只占总人口的4.02%，但他们拥有或占有的城市不动产比例(11.57%)是贵族规模的三倍。贵族的房子通常位于城市的精英区:沿着广场或在它旁边平行的街道上。

The analysis of natural movement within the noble circle shows that the process of demographic transition of the elite ranks of the Dubrovnik population started with the mortality transition as early as the seventeenth century. The third decade of the eighteenth century witnessed the closing phase of the process, natality transition, and by the middle of the eighteenth century the process was already completed. In the first half of the eighteenth century the average age of the nobility increased by more than six years. The process of demographic transition in this social group ended by the time it started in the other contingents of the Dubrovnik population. The course of the process of demographic transition within that Ragusan social group indicates a clear positive correlation between economic power (high living standard) and positive demographic movements, revealing that the causes of the process of demographic transition had been at work at least a century earlier than generally assumed until now. The speed with which the broader population absorbed the new achievements was slow: on the overall level of the Dubrovnik population it lagged behind the elite rank a whole century, while on the broader Croatian level a time lag of two centuries has been observed.

Gjuro Ferrich’s Periegesis orae Rhacusanae (1803) has been read as a description of Ragusa’s territories, as a sarcastic commentary on Ragusan manners and morals, and as a poetic paraphrase of physiocratic ideas. Now a hitherto unstudied letter from the author suggests that it should also be read as a ‘counter-travelogue’, a polemical reply to a foreign account of Ragusa. This study sets Ferrich’s Periegesis in context, examining its relationship to Francesco Maria Appendini’s Notizie (1802-03); the different models Ferrich may have drawn upon in framing his text; and the insights into particular images provided by a polemical reply to Ferrich composed by Marin Zlatarich. Ferrich’s Periegesis emerges as a ‘discreet’ polemic, with different messages addressed to its domestic readers on the one hand and its foreign audience on the other.
Gjuro Ferrich的《ragusanae的历史》(1803)被解读为对拉古萨领土的描述，对拉古萨礼仪和道德的讽刺评论，以及对重农主义思想的诗化解释。现在，来自作者的一封迄今未被研究的信表明，它也应该被解读为“反游记”，是对拉古萨的外国叙述的一份有争议的回复。本研究将Ferrich的《Periegesis》置于语境中，考察其与Francesco Maria Appendini的《Notizie》(1802-03)的关系;费里奇在构建他的文本时可能采用的不同模式;以及马林·兹拉塔里奇(Marin Zlatarich)对费里奇(Ferrich)的一篇有争议的回复所提供的对特定图像的见解。费里希的《Periegesis》是一场“谨慎的”论战，一方面向国内读者传达了不同的信息，另一方面向外国读者传达了不同的信息。

Data analysis of 110 baptisms from the parish registers of the City of Dubrovnik for the year 1770 is used to reconstruct godparenthood as an instrument of the families’ social betterment within community and a means of establishing ties with the individuals of considerable ‘social capital’. Correlating the data with the sources from the pre-Tridentine Dubrovnik and those from parish registers for the year 1870 on the one hand, and taking into account the results of foreign debates on this topic on the other, this article examines distinctive features of the social alliances created by godparenthood at the sunset of the Dubrovnik Republic.

The article examines the Venetian-Ragusan relations during one of the most dramatic moments in Dubrovnik’s history―the first few weeks after the Great Earthquake of 1667. This large-scale crisis which not only destroyed the city physically, but also its socio-political order, had a profound impact on the relations between the two Adriatic republics. Starting from the assumption that the situations of crisis allow a privileged insight into the nature of historical phenomena, this text centres on the microfactography of this dramatic period. On the one hand, it reconstructs various diplomatic contacts, speculations and plans in Venice itself, among which the most intriguing was the initiative for the union between the two republics and their patriciates. On the other hand, the article traces the situation in the surroundings of Dubrovnik, where general governor Cornaro made recurrent attempts at pressuring the remaining nobility into aggregation with the Most Serene Republic.

Woodwork contracts made in the period 1425-1435 provide valuable evidence on the interior space and decoration of the Ragusan houses. The furnishing determined the purpose of each room in the house, among which was a studio or study. This word may denote a separate room as well as a piece of furniture consisting of a writing desk, seat and bookshelves. A parallel has been established between the Ragusan houses of the period where the study room was usually on the first or on one of the upper floors with the house of a “perfect merchant” as described in the treatise of a Ragusan Benedikt Kotrulj from 1458. With regard to terminology, he distinguishes a “common scriptorium appropriate for business affairs” (scriptore or scrittoio comune), which is on the first floor, from a “small scriptorium” (scriptoreto separato or studiolo aparte), which is in the “bedroom or adjoining”, its purpose being to accommodate those “who take pleasure in books”.

The criminality trends in the Republic of Dubrovnik in the eighte enth century show a strong correlation between crime and social situation. The period of crisis (the first quarter of the century) saw an increase in major crimes (homicide, theft), which tended to drop in the periods of positive expectation. By contrast, during crisis petty crimes were rarely prosecuted but once the crisis ended, they found an easier way to court. This gave way to a paradoxical picture: in the period of positive expectation the overall crime rate increased, but the number of victims killed as a result of crime declined. The way of life, however, had a direct impact on the short-term oscillation of crime. The crimes committed in the ‘heat of passion’ (physical assault, defamation, slander) dominate in terms of seasonality, since they directly depended on the frequency of contact which varied according to the seasons of intensive farming and idle seasons.
