Revision as of 09:53, 4 June 2011
This is about Wikipedia's article on Faust Vrančić.
Faust Vrančić [1] is another article on Wikipedia that exhibits nationalistic editing. Faust Vrančić (or Fausto Veranzio) [2][3] is a individual with a Dalmatian heritage.[4] He was historically a citizen of the Republic of Venice. [5]
Faust was born in Šibenik [6][7] circa 1551 in Dalmatia, then a region of the Republic of Venice in todays modern Croatia. Dalmatia as a province, dates back to the Roman Empire [8] and is several centuries older than Croatia itself. In the 19th century Dalmatia became a province of the Austro-Hungarian Empire (Kingdom of Dalmatia). Dalmatian as a region has a very multicultural and multiethnic history.
Faust was a brilliant scientist in his day and is noted for his invention of the parachute.
- Wikipedia stated on 3rd of October 2010. I have indicated the date because edits on Wikipedia are constant, some articles change daily:
| “ | ... he was a polymath and bishop from Croatia. | ” |
It must be stated as an fact that:
- Croatia itself has not been a sovereign independent state for nine centuries.
- Croatia only became a sovereign state after 371 years after his death.
- Dalmatia was not part of Croatia until the middle of the 20th century.[9][10]
This is using the Wikipedia's article for bias nationalistic propaganda and is not based on fact. It otherwise tainted a perfectly good article on this unique individual. Some of the Croatian Wiki-Editors just can't separate ultra-extreme nationalistic propaganda from an unbiased historical perspective.
- John Van Antwerp Fine (Professor Emeritus of History at the University of Michigan-USA) on Croatian History:
| “ | There is no justification to falsify history to support ethnic ambitions. The Croats and their Balkan neighbours have done this in a major way [11] | ” |
Wiki editing gone bad!
Strange doubling up happening in this encyclopaedic article.
- Note take from Wikipedia on the 4 April 2011:
| “ | He was the son of Mihael Vrančić, a Latin poet, and the nephew of Antun (Croatian: Antun Vrančić),[8] archbishop of Esztergom (1504–1573), a diplomat and a civil servant, who was in touch with Erasmus (1465–1536), Philipp Melanchthon (1497–1560), and Nikola Šubić Zrinski (1508–1566), who took Fausto with him during some of his travels trough Hungary and the Republic of Venice.[9]
He was the son of Michele Veranzio, a Latin poet, and the nephew of Antonio,[8] archbishop of Esztergom (1504–1573), a diplomat and a civil servant, who was in touch with Erasmus (1465–1536), Philipp Melanchthon (1497–1560), and Nikola Šubić Zrinski (1508–1566), who took Fausto with him during some of his travels trough Hungary and the Republic of Venice.[10] Fausto's mother was from the Berislavić family. His brother, Giovanni, died still young in battle.[8] Link |

More on Faust Vrančić
Faust Vrančić in 1595 published (in Venice) a dictionary called "Dictionarium quinque nobilissimarum Europae linguarum: Latinae, Italicae, Germanicae, Dalmatiae & Ungaricae" (Dictionary of Five Most Noble European Languages: The Latin, Italian, German, Dalmatian and Hungarian). In his dictionary he referred to his native language [12] as Dalmatian. Front cover-link.
In 1617, (then sixty-five years old) implemented his design and tested the parachute by jumping from St Mark's Campanile in Venice. The 17th century Brooklyn Tidal Mill in Long Island (New York), is based on his design and is one of the few still standing mills in the New York City area.
Today a Croatian Navy rescue ship bears the name Faust Vrančić.

Historical Perspectives on Dalmatia
Dalmatia is a region of Europe with a very multicultural and multiethnic history.It was named by the Romans after the Dalmatae (or Delmatae) Illyrian tribes [13] who inhabited the region.

Note: "Ladislas, born 1377 in Naples Italy—died in 1414, Naples. Ladislas was the king of Naples, from 1386 claimant to the throne of Hungary from 1390, and prince of Taranto from 1406. He became a skilled political and military leader, taking advantage of power struggles on the Italian peninsula to greatly expand his kingdom and his power)." [16] Taken from Encyclopedia Britannica.
Andrew Archibald Paton
Andrew Archibald Paton (1811-1874) was a British diplomat and writer from the 19 century. In 1861 he wrote in his; Researches on the Danube and the Adriatic: Or, Contributions to the Modern:
- Signor Arneri from Korčula stated:
| “ | These three pears you see on the wall, said he, are the arms of my family. Perussich [17] was the name, when, in the earlier part of the fifteenth century, my ancestors built this palace; so that, you see.
I am Dalmatian. All the family, fathers, sons, and brothers, used to serve in the fleets of the Republic (Editors note: Republic of Venice) [18]; but the hero of our race was Arneri Perussich, whose statue you see there, who fought, bled, and died at the Siege of Candia, whose memory was honoured by the Republic, and whose surviving family was liberally pensioned; so his name of our race. We became Arneri, and ceased to be Perussich.'' [19] |
” |
| “ | ...the islands of Dalmatia owe much of their culture to the near vicinity of Venice and the more extensive use of the Italian language... [20] | ” |
Sir John Gardner Wilkinson
Sir John Gardner Wilkinson (1797 – 1875) was an English traveller, writer and pioneer Egyptologist of the 19th century. He is often referred to as "the Father of British Egyptology". He was in Dubrovnik (then called Ragusa) in 1848, he wrote in his; Dalmatia and Montenegro: With a Journey to Mostar in Herzegovina.Volume 1:
| “ | Italian is spoken in all the seaports of Dalmatia, but the language of the country is a dialect of the Slavonic, which alone is used by peasants in the interior.[21] | ” |
| “ | Their language though gradually falling into Venetianisms of the other Dalmatians towns, still retains some of that pure Italian idiom, for which was always noted. [22] | ” |
Maude Holbach (a 1910 travel guide)
Fausto Veranzio (Fausto Veranzio) wrote a dictionary called:
"Dictionarivm qvinqve nobilissimarvm Evropæ lingvarvm, latinæ, italicæ, germanicæ, dalmatiæ, & vngaricæ"
(Venetiis: Apud Nicolaum Morettum, 1595) [23]
"Dictionarivm qvinqve nobilissimarvm Evropæ lingvarvm, latinæ, italicæ, germanicæ, dalmatiæ, & vngaricæ"
(Venetiis: Apud Nicolaum Morettum, 1595) [23]
- Dalmatia-The Land Where East Meets West by Maude Holbach (a 1910 travel guide from COSIMO books and publications New York USA):
| “ | Two hundred years later that, is, early in the tenth century you might have heard Slavish and Latin spoken had you walked in the streets of Ragusa (Editors note: Dubrovnik),[24] just as you hear Slavish and Italian today; for as times of peace followed times of war, the Greek and Roman inhabitants of Rausium intermarried with the surrounding Slavs, and so a mixed race sprang up, a people apart from the rest of Dalmatia.

The case of Francesco Patrizi, the Venetian philosopher, is an illustration of the nationalistic warfare that is part of Wikipedia, and the inaccuracy, falsehood and bias that follows as a result.
Quote by Ocham-London, United Kingdom:
| “ | The problem becomes particularly acute in a place like Wikipedia, where the only intellectual interest - that is to say, no intellectual interest at all - lies simply in a nationalistic dispute, in this case between Italians and Croatians. | ” |
- Faust's, Machinae Novae (Venice 1595) contained designs of 56 different machines, tools, devices and technical concepts.Two variants of this work exist, one with the "Declaratio" in Latin and Italian.
