Name and early life

Antun's surname is an exonym which means "of Dalmatia".[3][better source needed] Dalmatin was probably from Senj.[4]

South Slavic Bible Institute

The South Slavic Bible Institute[5] (German: Südslawische Bibelanstalt)[6] was established in Urach (modern-day Bad Urach) in January 1561 by Baron Hans von Ungnad, who was its owner and patron.[7][better source needed] Within the institute Ungnad set up a press which he referred to as "the Slovene, Croatian and Cyrillic press" (German: Windische, Chrabatische und Cirulische Trukherey).[7][better source needed] The manager and supervisor of the institute was Primož Trubar.[7][better source needed] The books they printed at this press were planned to be used throughout the entire territory populated by South Slavs between the Soča River, the Black Sea,[8] and Constantinople.[9] For this task, Trubar engaged Stjepan Konzul Istranin and Antun Dalmatin as translators for Croatian and Serbian.[10] The Cyrillic text was responsibility of Antun Dalmatin.[11][better source needed]

Language used by Dalmatin and Istranin was based on northern-Chakavian dialect with elements of Shtokavian and Ikavian.[12] People from the institute, including Trubar, were not satisfied with translations of Dalmatin and Istranin.[12] Trubar and two of them exchanged heated correspondence about correctness of the language two of them used even before the first edition translated by Dalmatin and Istranin was published and immediately after it.[13][better source needed] For long time they tried to engage certain Dimitrije Serb to help them, but without success.[14][better source needed] Eventually, they managed to engage two Serbian Orthodox priests, Jovan Maleševac from Ottoman Bosnia and Matija Popović from Ottoman Serbia.[14][better source needed]
