The Research Group for the Study of the Eighteenth Century in Croatian Lands, or simply "IGOS Group," represents a research team dedicated to studying the 'Long' Eighteenth Century in Croatian lands. The initiators are Dr Teodora Shek Brnardić from the Croatian Institute of History and Dr Dubravka Botica, full professor at the Department of Art History, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Zagreb.

The work of the group members is interdisciplinary, focusing on researching various aspects of the cultural, artistic, literary, and social history of that period. The group brings together researchers and experts from different institutions with the aim of contributing to the scientific understanding and interpretation of events and phenomena during the eighteenth century in the context of Croatian lands.

As part of the group, an annual bulletin is published, featuring the latest bibliography of members on topics related to the 'Long' Eighteenth Century. Currently, the group has around 70 members. Approximately every two months, live meetings are held where members present their recent research. You can become a member by sending an email to the address igos.18.stoljece@gmail.com
