Summary/Abstract: Two apparent attempts of the extortion of the cathedral’s operarium incomes in the second half of the 15th century are presented in this paper. In both examples, the Venetian bishops of Dalmatian bishoprics are included – one is Mafeo Vallaresso (1450-1494), the archbishop of Zadar, while the second is Francesco Marcello (1488-1524), the bishop of Trogir. Nevertheless, that fact is the only similarity in these two examples. The Zadar example had lasted for almost twenty years and it convulsed groups near to the archbishop of Zadar, as well as those groups near to Zadar cathedral but also the whole urban community. This example is very well documented by many papal letters, the various appeals of the litigants as well as the archbishop’s letter that he wrote to his friends, advocates, sponsors and officials in Venetia and Rome. The Trogir example depicts the conflicts between the bishop and the spokesmen of the operarium of the cathedral of St. Lawrence. The cathedral was represented by Koriolan Cipiko in Venetia in front of the doge and apostolic legate Nicholas Franco, and the conflict was solved in less than two months. The Zadar example is traced in unpublished archival documents from various series of the Vatican Secret Archives as well as in the archbishop’s epistolarium from the Vatican Apostolic Library, while the Trogir example is traced in the copies of documents from the Croatian State Archive in Zagreb, as well as in the Chapter Archive of Trogir’s cathedral.
