Die Chronik des Priesters aus Duklja - Ein Grundlegendes Werk für die Erforschung der Ansätze des Ethnologischen Gedankens bei den Kroaten

U prilogu se razmatra Ljetopis popa Dukljanina kao etnološki izvor ali i kao nezaobilazno djelo kada je riječ o počecima etnološkog razmišljanja u nas.Im vorliegenden Beitrag wird die Chronik des Priesters aus Duklja (XII. JhdL), dessen ursprünglicher slawische Text zwar verlorenging, aber seine kroatischen und lateinischen Abschreibungen bzw. Übersetzungen erhalten sind, als Quelle für ethnologische Forschungen bewertet. Der Autor dieser Chronik stützte sich in seiner Arbeit auf volkstumliche Überlieferungen und schuf selbst eine Grundlage für die Entstehung weiterer Legenden

Towards The Call Of Vila (Fairy) Slovinka Through Bašćina (Heritage) Of Juraj Barakovlć

Ovaj prilog je nastavak autoričina sustavnog istraživanja djela starije hrvatske književnosti s osobitim obzirom na to da ona, još nedovoljno istražena, predstavljaju bogatu podlogu za izučavanje začetaka etnološkog razmišljanja u Hrvata. U ovoj je radu analizirano djelo J. Barakovića "Vila Slovinka", nastalo na razmeđu dvaju stilova - renesanse i baroka, djelo koje sadrži niz zanimljivih i relevantnih etnoloških i folklorističkih podataka."Vila Slovinka", Juraj Baraković\u27s poem, is a valuable contribution to the research and the establishment of the beginnings of Croatian ethnological perception. This work was written in the 16th century and it is marked by two different styles: the Renaissance and the Baroque. The author tries to confirm in a careful analysis her idea about older Croatian literature being a source of many pieces of information relevant for roots of the future science - ethnology. Baraković is, as well as his forerunners Zoranić and Hektorović, interested in ethnogenesis of the Croats. According to his education, he places the origins of his people in the ancient times. Baraković is the objective observer of his compatriots, life and customs, regardless of which social stratum they belong to. His characters are not "paper-made"-they are very alive, with all the human features. The poet is an excellent expert in folk poems, so that he includes them in his poem. As a good observer of social strata, he is completely aware of the value of customs, and therefore he also uses them in this work. The interesting part of this extensive poem is also Baraković\u27s knowledge of history, his patriotism and the feeling for traditional heritage of his nation. Nevertheless, one thing must be kept in mind - this is all very far from the conscious scientific research, but it is still a big step towards
