The paper presents the establishment and work of the Slovenian Societies on the Croatian territory between the two World Wars. Previous studies have shown the activities of 15 Slovenian Societies, of ...which most were founded in Zagreb (12). Besides Zagreb, the Slovenian Societies were also registered in other Croatian towns: Karlovac, Osijek, Slavonski Brod and Susak (Rijeka). The Societies have two scopes of work, namely educational and cultural. According to their mode of action, it is evident that they are similar to other Slovenian Societies which were founded by Slovenian immigrants across the European countries, yet they also have some characteristics which are significant for the area of the so-called 'internal diaspora', that is the area of Croatia. In addition to the activities of these Societies and the social structure which is evident from the lists of members, one must certainly emphasize their other important role, and that is they are an essential source of research and systematic collection of data on some minority group, in this case the Slovenian Minority in Croatia.
In the period after the World War II, the Slovenian community in Rijeka had its strong traditional basis and could accept the newly arrived members of the Slovenian nation. Hence there was an ...affirmation of cultural and educational work with the prominent national characteristics and the expected features of that time. Slovenian cultural societies in relation to the ethnicity were in specific position in the Republic of Croatia because they could not manifest themselves as a minority, so they were active by varying orientations between the workers’ cultural creativity and the selected contents with the task of preserving national identity. In relation to the social order, the Slovenian Culture and Arts Societies in Rijeka completed the picture of welcome and distinctive amateurism with the specific personal ties to the so-called high (professional) culture. The holder of the Slovenian cultural activities in Rijeka of that time is the Slovenian House – Cultural and Educational Society “Bazovica”. Beside the Slovenian House – Cultural and Educational Society “Bazovica”, which is nowadays recognizable in Rijeka as a minority society with long tradition of being active, members of the Slovenian community in Rijeka had founded their department in the former Elementary School Matteotti with Slovene as a school subject (from 1951 to 1953), and in the Church of Assumption the Mass had been held in the Slovene language (up to 1950s).
Different migration processes caused the present heterogeneous composition of the population of the Gorski kotar region. The Central Region and the Kupa Valley were not an exception, and the ...immigration of people from various parts of the Habsburg Monarchy have been recorded throughout history. The reasons for immigration and for its intensity can be seen in the notes written down in the church books named Status Animarum (cro. Stanje dusa, slo. Druzinske knjige) in which the motives for immigration or emigration of individuals as well as of whole families have been noted. On the basis of these data we can draw generalized conclusions for the precise geographical area, and the precise political and historical period. The paper analyzes data on immigration in the Kupa Valley, with a focus on population migration from today's Slovene regions from the mid-19th to mid-20th century. The data obtained from the Status Animarum books written in the parishes of the Central Region and the Kupa Valley, show the immigration of people, which proves migration from Slovenian regions to the Croatian ones, but also vice versa. The conclusions of the paper are illustrated and backed with data from the elementary schools registers in the settlements Brod Moravice, Brod na Kupi, Crni Lug, Delnice, Divjake, Fuzine, Lokve, Skrad, Razloge and Vrbovsko.

Cirila i Metoda. U èlanku su predstavljeni pojedinci, koji su djelovali u Hrvatskoj franjevaèkoj provinciji sv. Cirila i Metoda o kojima postoje biografski podaci. Posebno je naglasen zivot i djelovanje onih franjevaca koji su bili aktivni u Svetistu Majke Bozje Trsatske na Trsatu. Razlozi njihovih dolazaka na Trsat bili su razlièiti i razlikovali su se od pojedinca do pojedinca. Svi ovdje spomenuti zauzeli su posebno mjesto u razvoju samostana i Svetista na Trsatu, ali i u povijesti Hrvatske franjevaèke provincije sv. Cirila i Metoda.
The basis of our research was the István Ferenc Bíró’s study entitled Egyszer volt, hol nem volt, még a tantervi programon is túl… (2015) (Once upon a time... over the curricular programme), in which ...the author, on the basis of his preliminary experiments, considers Hungarian folk tales as a suitable framework for folk flute lessons. In a didactically oriented analysis, the author claims that the phases of folk tales correspond to those of folk flute lessons. The writer drew on his more than a decade experience in pedagogy; however, no pedagogical experiment has been carried out to justify his claims. Our research aims to make up for this deficiency. The experiment was carried out in a double-group pedagogical test. The students participating in the experiment are roughly of the same age and with similar capabilities, who took part in skill assessment both at the beginning and the end of the experiment. They got acquainted with the same number of child songs, in a vocal and instrumental form, and in the same number of lessons. The difference lay in the order of the set of tones and the forms of the reproduction of songs. The experimental group carried out their work in the order and way determined by the author, while the control group followed an order set by a commonly used textbook. The experiment proved that the folk tale framework does not only mean a motivational difference for the students, but due to the common linguistic and literary roots of folk songs and folk tales, the number of unknown words in folk songs also decreased. For those participating in the experimental group, an organic relationship evolved between the vocal and instrumental versions of folk songs, while the two versions were separated in the control group, as shown by the text-like interpretation of rhythm or its absence.
The area of Gorski kotar was in history a site with a variety of migratory processes which influenced the ethnical particularities of that area. These migrations were the reason for the heterogeneous ...composition of the present population of the Gorski kotar region. The Čabar region was not an exception to this, and throughout history there existed a written record of the immigration of people from all over the Habsburg Monarchy. Especially intensive was the immigration in the areas situated near the Kupa and Čabranka rivers. The reasons for immigration and for its intensity can be seen in the notes written down in the church books named Status Animarum (cro. Stanje duša, slo. Družinske knjige). The immigration or emigration reasons of individuals as well as of whole families have been noted in these books. On the basis of these notes we can draw conclusions regarding the level of generalization for the precise geographical area and the precise political and historical period, which becomes a relevant and credible basis for theoretical considerations and a comparative analysis. In this manner, the history of the geographical area becomes the history of the area’s residents, both those permanently inhabited and those who settled subsequently. This paper will focus on the immigration of people in the Čabar area from present-day Slovenian regions during the 19th and 20th century. The data obtained from the Status Animarum books, which were written in the parishes of the Čabar region, show the immigration of people, which proves migration from Slovenian regions to the Croatian ones, but also vice versa. The conclusions of the paper will be illustrated and backed with data obtained from the Status Animarum books originating from Slovene parishes Babno Polje and Jelšane, and with additional information from elementary school registers in Prezid and Čabar.

This paper deals with the operations of the Slovenian-Croatian societies in Pazin, up to the First World War. What was typical of these societies is that they had both a Slovenian and a Croatian name ...and that they played a significant role in the preservation of Croatian and Slovenian cultural identity in the entire Istrian peninsula. In addition to the cultural dimension of their activities, these societies often exerted a strong political influence. Both the cultural and political dimensions of the societies were shaped by some of the most important historical figures in Istrian history - the so-called Slovenian and Croatian national awakeners. Using primary and secondary sources, the paper examines the activities of the following societies: Politicno drustvo za Hrvate in Slovence v Istri (Political Society of Croatians and Slovenes in Istria), Hrvatsko-slovensko katolicko drustvo 'Dobrila' (Croatian-Slovenian Catholic Society Dobrila), Hrvatsko-slovensko akademsko ferijalno drustvo 'Istra' (Croatian-Slovenian Academic and Vacation Society 'Istra'), Katolisko podporno drusvo 'Obrana' (Croatian-Slovenian Catholic Society Obrana) and Istarsko planinarsko drustvo (Istrian Hiking Society). Upon an examination of the activities of these societies, it becomes clear that they were founded during a period when these types of societies and associations were appearing throughout the Istrian peninsula in great numbers. Their active members and founders were often involved in the activities of other, similar societies, which had an impact on the intensity of their activities as well as their longevity. All the societies mentioned in this study were extremely active in their beginnings, but their activities slowly tapered off, until they eventually stopped. This was a consequence of their active members and founders being involved in various activities in other societies. Different societies often had the same mission or purpose and instead of acting in unison, they often stood in each other's way, which lead to misunderstandings. The societies presented in this paper, which were active on the Istrian peninsula, had many shortcomings. Nevertheless, because of the impact they had on the Istrian people, especially the youth, they represent an important chapter in the history of Istria.
The article deals with problems of Slovene populations who immigrated from the present territory of the Republic of Slovenia to Pula during the period from the time of the first immigrations in the ...17th century until 1918, when Austria-Hungary ceased to exist. Frequent migrations and immigrations have marked the history of both Istria and Pula and resulted in an ethnically uneven region, whereby immigrants from the present Slovene territory have played an important role. The article portrays the continuous immigration of Slovene populations from the 17th century until the beginnings of the 20th century and the integration of the newcomers into the preexisting society. It also records the reasons for immigration and describes the self-organization and activities of Slovene cultural clubs in Pula. It shows that those processes were not solely tied to the immigrants from the present territory of the Republic of Slovenia but were also characteristic of the inhabitants of other parts of central Europe and that some of them have survived into our own times.
