Summary/Abstract: Jakov Volčić (1815–1888), a priest and Istrian national revivalist, distinguished himself also by collecting oral literary works in Istria and Liburnia. He thus recorded an array of poems which he heard in Lovran. Many of these were published in magazines, and then printed in the collection Hrvatske narodne pjesme što se pjevaju u Istri i na Kvarnerskih otocih (Croatian national poems sung in Istria and on the islands of Kvarner) in 1880. This collection brings poems that were recorded by Volčić in Lovran. Their thematic and motivic, notional, formal and also contextual layers are analysed in order to valorise them, but the intention was also to disseminate the knowledge on the Lovran literary and artistic mosaic.
