Extract

Professor Rothenberg writes that his purpose was not to restate the case for or against Jelačić or to give yet another account of the complicated relationship between Zagreb, Pest, and Vienna. But it is not at all clear what the precise thesis of his paper is. The paper, based largely on archival materials and other primary sources, makes two very worthwhile contributions. It presents an excellent discussion of the appointment of Jelačić (whom the author considers “more a political general than a first rate field commander”) to the office of ban and Jelačić military and political activities during the crucial months of 1848 and 1849. And it enables us to understand more easily some of the more complicated aspects of Croatia's political history at that time.
