| Popis: | U ovome se radu prikazuju rezultati istraživanja online izvora vezanih uz odnos hvarskog meteorologa i prirodoslovca Grgura Bučića, i najpoznatijeg njemačkog znanstvenika 2. pol. 19. st., Ernsta Haeckela. Kao prilog istraživanju ove teme, kojom se najviše bavio biolog Ante Tadić, opisuje se i Haeckelov boravak u gradu Hvaru 1871. g. This paper presents the results of the researches of online sources connected with relationship between Hvar meteorologist and naturalist Grgur Bučić, and the best known German naturalist of the second half of the 19th century, Ernst Haeckel. Haeckel visited Hvar with his assistants in 1871, where they were received in the Franciscan monastery by the Friar Bonagracija Maroević; the Germans researched the sea animals, especially sponges, assisted by Bučić and Father Bonagracija. Correspondence between Bučić and Haeckel lasted about forty years, till Bučić's death in 1911. Their relationship was described chiefly by the biologist Ante Tadić, based on the sources in the Cabinet of Grgur Bučić in the Museom of Hvar Heritage. The paper exposes some newly accessible digitalized correspondence between Bučić, Haeckel and Charles Darwin, with its data and metadata. It helps us to reconstruct Haeckel's sojourn in Hvar in 1871, and it proves that both Bučić and friar Bonagracija were among the earliest Croatian evolutionists or darwinists. |
