ŠIME LJUBIĆ’S DOCUMENTS ABOUT ŠĆEPAN MALI This paper deals with the documents found at the Venetian Archives about Šćepan Mali, which Šime Ljubić, a Croatian writer, historian and archeologist, published in Belgrade in 1870. The documents refer to the presence of Šćepan Mali in Montenegro and his impersonation of tzar Peter III from 1767 to 1774. The specific aspect of these documents, as interpreted by Šime Ljubić, reveal Ljubić as a sort of an omnipresent and omniscient historian, while the authors of the documents (mainly Venetian agents) act as the narrators of the events. From this point of view, the material about Šćepan Mali contains all the elements of a fabula, shaped by the historian Šime Ljubić, framed between the Introduction (as prologue) and the lexicographical article about Stjepan Zanović as epilogue.
