The Term Westwerk in German Art History Historiography and It's Reception in Croatian Scientific Literature
Rad donosi pregled primjene i razvoja pojma westwerk u njemačkoj povijesnoumjetničkoj historiografiji od njegovih začetaka krajem 19. stoljeća pa sve do novih tendencija u istraživanju početkom 21. stoljeća te pregled recepcije pojma u hrvatskoj znanstvenoj literaturi. Naglasak je pritom na analizi radova relevantnih autora koji su svojim istraživanjem utjecali na oblikovanje i daljnji razvoj tog pojma. U njemačkoj historiografiji ističu se Wilhelm Effmann, Alois Fuchs, Friedrich Möbius i Uwe Lobbedey koji su razvijanjem novih teza i pristupa odredili i učvrstili pojam westwerka u povijesnoumjetničkoj terminologiji. Na primjerima radova Vladimira P. Gossa, Miljenka Jurkovića i Tomislava Marasovića analizira se uvođenje pojma westwerk u hrvatsku povijest umjetnosti te njegova prilagodba na lokalne arhitektonske primjere. Rad nastoji prikazati uspostavu pojma westwerk u određenoj povijesnoumjetničkoj historiografiji i način na koji ga pojedini autori upotrebljavaju u konkretnom vremenu, značenja koja mu pridodaju, metode i pristupe kojima se pritom koriste te kontekst u kojem ga oblikuju. Također, na primjeru razvoja pojma i njegovih definicija te primjene u znanstvenom diskursu prikazuju se opće postavke problematike westwerka.The paper presents the overview of use and development of the term westwork (westwerk) in German art history historiography since it was first established at the end of the 19th century up to the new research tendencies at the beginning of the 21st century as well as the overview of the term reception in Croatian scientific literature. The emphasis is put on the analysis of works by most relevant authors in the filed who have influenced the formation and further development of the term through their research. The most important authors of the field in the German historiography were Wilhelm Effmann, Alois Fuchs, Friedrich Möbius and Uwe Lobbedey who defined and reinforced the term westwork in the art history terminology by developing new thesis and approaches. Through the works of Vladimir P. Goss, Miljenko Jurković and Tomislav Marasović has been analysed how the term was introduced to Croatian art history and how it has been adapted to the local architecture. The paper, therefore, tends to present the establishment of the term westwork in a certain art history historiography as well as the way in which certain authors use it in a particular period, along with the meanings they add to it, the methods and approaches they use in this filed and the context in which they shape the term. Also, through the analysis of the development, definition and use of the term in the scientific discourse the paper presents the general problems of the term westwork

UNACCOMPLISHED ATTEMPTS OF POPE JOHN PAUL II TO VISIT YUGOSLAVIA
In August 1980 Presidency of Yugoslavia sent an invitation to Pope John Paul II. However,
when Pope declared that he would like to visit Yugoslavia during the Eucharistic congress
in Maria Bistrica (1984), Yugoslav authorities denied this initiative, which also has repeated
in 1985. Namely, Yugoslav authorities assumed that such a visit, while Yugoslavia
was enduring a heavy economic crisis and national turbulences, would not be politically
opportune. Therefore, Yugoslav authorities did not withdraw the invitation, while at the
same time they were diplomatically trying to postpone the papal visitation, in order to
prevent its realization completely.
Namely, Yugoslav authorities believed that the papal visitation would strengthen position of
the Catholic Church within the society, and that this could be utilized by the political opposition
of Yugoslavia, which had to be avoided in any case, especially during the 1980s while
Yugoslavia was experiencing economic and political crisis. By the same token, they were
quite aware that an explicit denial of the icnvitation could provoke a negative public opinion,
and therefore they were trying to condition such a form of the papal visitation, which
should be unacceptable to the Church. At the same time, Yugoslav authorities were plotting
such a plan, in which even if the Church would accept all the conditions, then they would
require additional amenability of the Yugoslav bishops towards the state and authorities.
On the other hand, the Holy See truly wanted to realize this visit, since this was in accordance
with its »Eastern policy«, i.e. strengthening the Catholic Church position in
the eastern European communist countries. Namely, after the visit to Poland, it seemed
that Yugoslavia was the most suitable country for the next papal visitation, especially
since Vatican had formally good diplomatic relations with the Yugoslav authorities. Consequently,
since all the papal attempts failed, the Holy See in 1985 decided give up the
visit. Thus, Pope did not manage to visit socialistic Yugoslavia, but in the following years
after dissolution of Yugoslavia, John Paul II has visited Croatia three times and Bosnia
and Herzegovina one time
Utjecaj predočivosti na leksičko-semantičku obradu asocijacija u prvoj epizodi psihoze
U ovom diplomskom radu predstavljeno je istraživanje jezične produkcije i recepcije asocijacija s obzirom na leksičko-semantičko obilježje predočivosti kodispitanika sprvom epizodom i ranim početkom psihoze. Prvi dio rada je pregled dosadašnjih istraživanja i teorijskih perspektiva o jezičnim deficitima u psihozi. Istraživanja asocijacija upsihozi ishizofreniji su česta s obzirom na to da se opušteneasocijacije(engl. loose associations)smatraju jednim od prvih opisanih i dominantnih jezičnih obilježja oboljenja. Nadalje, riječi s niskim leksičko-semantičkim obilježjem predočivosti, za razliku od riječi s visokim, zahtijevaju veći kognitivni napor pri stvaranju mentalne slike i aktivaciji koncepata u semantičkom pamćenju. U drugom dijelu rada prikazano je istraživanje koje je uključilo dva zadatka, zadatak recepcije i zadatak produkcije, koji su konstruirani u njegovu svrhu na temelju postojeće baze psiholingvističkih leksičko-semantičkih obilježja (Erdeljac et al., 2018). Ispitivanje je provedeno na 12 ispitanika sprvom epizodom i ranim početkom psihozete 12
zdravih kontrolnih ispitanika. Kod ciljane skupine ispitanika, ispitanika sprvom epizodom i ranim početkom psihoze, u testu produkcije potvrđeno je drugačije procesiranje s obzirom na leksičko-semantičko obilježje predočivosti, te je na oba zadatka ciljana skupina imala duže vrijeme reakcije u odnosu na zdravu kontrolnu skupinu. Nadalje, u testu recepcije obje su skupine statistički značajno više odabirale visoko i srednje frekventne riječi u odnosu na nisko frekventne te je ciljana skupina imala duže vrijeme reakcije na visoko i srednje frekventne riječi u odnosu na nisko frekventne. Analiza rezultata provedena je u skladu s aktualnim psholingvističkim teorijama te dodatno potvrđuju teoriju da kod ispitanika sprvom epizodom i ranim početkom psihozedolazi do pretjerane aktivacije i smanjenja inhibicije pri širećoj aktivaciji u semantičkom pamćenju pri jezičnom procesiranju.This master thesis gives an overview of a study of language production and reception of associations depending on the lexical-semantic imageability feature in subjects with first episode and early course psychosis. First part of the thesis gives an overview of previous studies and theoretical perspectives on language deficits in psychosis. Studies on associationsin schizophreniaare numerous because looseassociations are one of the firstdescribedsymptoms and one of the most prominent language processing symptoms in schizophrenia(as part of psychosis). Furthermore, words withalow value of the lexical-semantic feature imageability, unlike words with high imageability, demand a higher cognitive effort in creation of their mental image and activation of concepts in the semantic memory. The second part of the thesis gives an overview of the study which included two tests, a language reception and production test, which were constructed for the purposeof the study on the basis of an existing database of psycholinguistic lexical-semantic features (Erdeljac et al., 2018). The study included 12 subjects with first episodeand early course psychosisand 12 healthy subjects for the control group. It was confirmed that the target group, subjects with first episode and early course psychosis, differently processes language on account of the imageability feature in the production test, and on both test the target group had longer reaction times than the healthy control group. Furthermore, in the reception test both groups chose statistically more associations that were of high and medium frequency, when compared to low frequency words, and the target group had longer reaction times on high and medium frequency words when compared to low frequency words. Results analysis was conducted according to actual psycholinguistic theories and further validated the theory that subjects with schizophrenia have an increased activation and a decrease of inhibition in spreading of activation in the semantic memory in language processing
E-mail archiving
Arhiviranje e-pošte je centralna tema ovog rada. Nakon uvoda razmatraju se tehnički čimbenici koji otežavaju arhiviranje. Također, rad donosi preporuke za arhiviranje za ustanove, krajnje korisnike i udruge koje se bave trajnim očuvanjem. Za ustanove je važno definiranje politike, odabir alata te provedba uz suradnju s informacijskim stručnjacima. Iz perspektive krajnjeg korisnika provedeno je istraživanje o alatima za migraciju e-pošte i analizirani su alati za sigurnosno kopiranje spomenuti u tekstu. Iz poslovnog aspekta razmatraju se prednosti i ključne poslovne funkcije koje se ostvaruju arhiviranjem e-pošte. Rad također analizira statističke podatke o korištenju e-pošte.This thesis deals with e-mail archiving. Introduction is followed by brief discussion about technical aspects impeding e-mail archiving. Furthermore, recommendations for archiving for institutions, end users and digital preservation community are discussed. An institution undertaking e-mail archiving project should define policies, choose appropriate tools and implement them. A research into e-mail migration tools was conducted and back-up tools mentioned in the text were also analyzed. Advantages and key business functions that are achieved by email archiving are discussed. The thesis also discusses e-mail statistics report
Ethereum – revolucija kroz decentralizaciju
U kolovozu 2008. nepoznati programer (ili grupa programera) predstavljen pod
pseudonimom Satoshi Nakamoto je pokrenuo Bitcoin, online valutu i sustav plaćanja koji
umjesto oslanjanja na centralni autoritet za verifikaciju transakcija koristi kriptografiju.
Bitcoin je u idućem desetljeću ostvario veliku popularnost no njegova primarna primjena
ostala je vrlo ograničena i svodi se na slanje i primanje digitalne valute -- bitcoina.
Ipak, blockchain tehnologija, koja je jedan od temelja funkcioniranja Bitcoina,
omogućuje izvršavanje drugih vrsta transakcija i pohranu drugih vrsta podataka osim
onih financijske prirode.
Pet godina kasnije, mladi programer rusko-kanadskog porijekla Vitalik Buterin
predstavlja Ethereum, blockchain platformu koja omogućuje izvršavanje znatno
kompleksnijih transakcija, tzv. smart contracta ili pametnih ugovora. Ovaj radikalni
koncept Ethereum zapravo čini globalnom računalnom platformom za decentralizirane
aplikacije (eng. decentralized apps (dApps)).
Ethereum je službeno pušten u pogon u srpnju 2015., a tri godine kasnije na njemu se
nalaze na stotine aktivnih dAppova. Uz to, Ethereum se pokazao izuzetno pogodan za
crowdfunding kroz prodaju tokena na toj platformi (tzv. initial coin offering ili ICO), što
je omogućilo pokretanje više stotina projekata ali i postavilo mnoga pitanja o regulativi
ovog posve novog načina financiranja
Redefiniranje koncepta vrijednosti kroz prizmu odnosa korupcije i nacionalne sigurnosti
Kroz aspekt vrijednosti mnogo se toga proučava u sociologiji. Stabilnost kao jedna od glavnih značajki vrijednosnog sklopa često se uzima kao referenca u testiranju. Kako bi testirali stabilnost stavljamo u opreku teoriju o vrijednostima s perspektive socijalne psihologije koja uveliko uzima u obzir kontekst. Za testiranje smo gledali kroz prizmu odnosa korupcije (uzimajući koncept D. Grubiše s naglaskom na društveno-kulturne uvjete razvitka sistemske korupcije u Hrvatskoj) i nacionalne sigurnosti (kod koje smo koristili koncept Kopenhaške škole s pet sektora). Korupcija kao jedan od društvenih fenomena koji je osjetljiv za testiranje vrlo je pogodan za promatranje upravo konteksta. Testirala se teorijska hipoteza: normativno vrednovanje korupcije ima dva pola, dok je praksa jedno veliko sivo polje odmjeravanja trenutno vidljivih posljedica; osobnih dobitaka i gubitaka) i metodološka hipoteza: utjecaj poretka pitanja na odgovore, gdje smo pretpostavili kako će samo spominjanje korupcije i negativna asocijacija uz istu utjecati na odgovore kod vinjeta tako da ispitanici i ispitanice biti manje skloni stupiti u akcije koje generiraju korupciju. Rezultati su nam pokazali sklonost klasičnoj sociološkoj teoriji vrijednosti koja zagovara stabilnost kao bitnu značajku vrijednosnog sklopa, a s druge strane potvrdili su metodološku hipotezu kako poredak pitanja kod testiranja osjetljivih tema itekako ima utjecaja na odgovore.Through the aspect of value, much is studied in sociology. Stability as one of the key features of the value system is often taken as an indicator in testing. In order to test the stability, we contrasted classical sociology definition of value to the theory of values from the perspective of social psychology that greatly takes into account the context as key features of the value system. While testing, we looked through the prism of the corruption (taking the concept of D. Grubiša with an emphasis on socio-cultural conditions of development of systemic corruption in Croatia) in relation to the national security (where we used the concept of the Security studies of School of Copenhagen: Sectoral analysis through five sectors). Corruption as one of the social phenomena that is sensitive while testing is very suitable for observing the impact of context. We tested theoretical hypothesis: the normative evaluation of corruption is binary, while the practice is a big grey field of currently visible consequences; personal gains and losses) and the methodological hypothesis: the impact of the order of the questions on the answers, where we assumed that the mention of corruption itself and its negative association would affect the response on the vignettes, in way that respondents and respondents would be less inclined to engage in corruptive actions. The results showed us a tendency to classical sociological theory of value that advocates stability as an essential feature of the value system, and on the other hand confirmed the methodological hypothesis that question order is likely to have an impact on the responses while testing sensitive subjects
The use of web 2.0 tools in the acquisition of grammatical structures in English as a foreign language
U nastavi stranoga jezika među najčešće primjere integracije gramatike i suradničkog pisanja
pomoću tehnologija 2.0 spada uporaba wikija. Mnoga istraživanja pokazuju da u procesu
suradničkog pisanja u wikiju sudionici svjesno komuniciraju o jeziku, no primjene wikija u
kojima jezične strukture predstavljaju temu pisanja mnogo se rjeđe navode u literaturi.
U ovom doktorskom radu analizira se uloga tehnologija 2.0 u poučavanju gramatike
unutar konstruktivističke paradigme. Istraživanje je provedeno u dvjema fazama, kao
predistraživanje i glavno (kvazieksperimentalno) istraživanje među studentima
preddiplomskog kolegija engleskog jezika informatičke struke u dvije uzastopne akademske
godine. U eksperimentalnoj grupi primijenjeni su wiki sustav i nekoliko drugih asinkronih alata
2.0 za multimodalan opis gramatičkih tema. U kontrolnoj grupi e-aktivnosti provedene su uz
uporabu standardnih tehnologija (procesora teksta i sustava za e-učenje).
Ciljevi glavnog istraživanja bili su: (1) utvrditi učinak primjene alata 2.0 u suradničkim
e-aktivnostima na ovladavanje zadanim gramatičkim strukturama; (2) ispitati percepciju
hibridnog kolegija i suradničkih gramatičkih e-aktivnosti; (3) provjeriti postoji li povezanost
između izlazne gramatičke kompetencije i nekoliko nejezičnih čimbenika. Za prikupljanje
podataka korištene su kvantitativne metode (gramatički test i anketni upitnik).
Rezultati ukazuju da u smislu ovladanosti gramatičkim strukturama po završetku
tretmana nije ostvaren statistički značajan pozitivniji učinak u eksperimentalnoj grupi.
Međutim, u procjeni nekih dimenzija e-aktivnosti pronađene su statistički značajne razlike u
korist uporabe alata 2.0 kod eksperimentalne grupe, dok ni za jedan od aspekata procjene
hibridnog kolegija nisu dobivene statistički značajne razlike između dvije grupe.
U eksperimentalnoj grupi također je ispitana povezanost izlazne gramatičke
kompetencije, informatičke pismenosti ispitanika, njihovih individualnih karakteristika te
situacijskih čimbenika nastave. Izravno povezanima s gramatičkim znanjem pokazale su se
samo (1) percepcija samoefikasnosti te (2) napor u radu s računalima (negativna korelacija),
dok su među nejezičnim varijablama utvrđene višestruke i statistički značajne veze.
Može se zaključiti da rezultati ovog empirijskog istraživanja upućuju na umjeren
potencijal primjene alata 2.0 pri poučavanju gramatike putem suradničkog pisanja u hibridnoj
nastavi u odnosu na uporabu standardnih tehnologija, kao i na važnost osobina učenika i
situacijskih čimbenika koji, izravno ili neizravno, djeluju na proces učenja.The advent of the Web 2.0 concept and e-learning 2.0 paradigm over a decade ago coincided
with a heightened interest in constructivist, learner-oriented pedagogies in foreign language
instruction. Within the sociocultural theoretical framework, second language acquisition is seen
as arising from the interaction of an individual with his/her social and cultural context, with the
notion of learning as an individual and social process in which meaning arises from and is
mediated by language, physical artefacts and technological tools.
In the domain of web 2.0 technologies, integration of writing and grammar is most
frequently associated with wikis as a collaborative writing tools used for projects that are
typically focused on the development of conceptual knowledge in FL instruction. Numerous
studies provide evidence for the fact that during collaborative writing in a wiki students
participate in negotiation of meaning and form, which also implies explicit communication
about grammar. However, there are relatively few examples of applications of wikis in literature
in which students are primarily involved in describing linguistic structures as the topic of their
collaborative work. Consequently, the evidence on the effectiveness of such an approach to
grammar is scarce.
The research in this thesis addresses this research gap by analysing factors that may
influence the successfulness of using web 2.0 tools in online teaching of EFL grammar in terms
of contributing to the development of linguistic (i.e. grammatical) competence and enhancing
learning experience. In the context of e-learning 2.0 and constructivism, students in a tertiary
hybrid English for Specific Purposes course were engaged in out-of-class grammar e-tivities.
In addition to the class wiki used to support the co-construction and publishing of the written
output (i.e. textual description of grammatical structures on wiki pages), several other
asynchronous web 2.0 tools were used for visualisation and graphic knowledge organization in
artefacts that supplemented the textual description.
The research in this dissertation was conducted in two stages, i.e. preliminary study and
main study, in two subsequent academic years, within the same undergraduate EFL course. The
goals of the preliminary research were to; (1) determine the applicability of web 2.0 tools in the
implementation of grammar e-tivities by investigating the respondents’ perception of using
such tools in grammar instruction, as well as their assessment of various aspects of the hybrid
EFL course; (2) validate the instrument – survey questionnaire – that would be used in the main
study. In order to examine the effects of the usage of web 2.0 tools, in the main study the
quasiexperimental research design was employed. Unlike the experimental group, in which the
acquisition of target structures was aided by web 2.0 technologies, respondents in the control
group were only able to use conventional tools and systems (MS Word and Moodle LMS) to
perform collaborative grammar e-tivities. The main study was aimed at: (1) establishing the
effect of implementing web 2.0 tools in collaborative e-tivities on the acquisition of target
grammatical structures that the respondents were involved with while performing the tasks (i.e.
describing grammar topics in the wiki); (2) examine the respondents’ perception of the hybrid
EFL course and the conducted e-tivities in which constructivist principles were combined with
the use of web 2.0 tools, and grammar instruction was integrated with collaborative writing; (3)
exploring the correlation between the acquired knowledge of grammatical structures (measured
by the retest upon the completion of the experiment) and other variables (several learner
variables including individual differences and computer literacy as well as situational
variables).
In addition to the survey questionnaire, the data in the main research were collected by
means of grammar tests (pre-test, retest and post-test) to assess the level of respondents’
knowledge of the target structures. The target morphosyntactic structures had been selected on
the basis of the diagnostic test before the experiment and included: reported speech; conditional
sentences; causative have; participle clauses; subjunctive and structures for expressing unreal
past. The questionnaire, which was administered shortly after the completion of the experiment
in both groups of respondents, was used to measure various psychological variables (individual
differences, perception of the hybrid EFL course and the conducted e-tivities), computer
literacy and the perception of situational variables related to e-tivies implementation.
The results indicate that, in terms of the level of acquisition of target grammatical
structures, no statistically significant positive effect of using web 2.0 tools was found in the
experimental group in comparison to the control group in which grammar e-tivities were
performed by using conventional technological tools. In terms of e-tivities perception,
statistically significant differences in favour of the use of web 2.0 technologies were
established for two out of three dimensions of e-tivities perception: interaction among
participants and e-tivies methodology/implementation. With regards to respondents’ evaluation
of the hybrid course at the end of the instruction cycle, no statistically significant differences
were established between two groups of respondents, although in both groups all the three
aspects of the EFL course (i.e. satisfaction with the course; course interestingness and
usefulness; achieved learning outcomes) obtained fairly positive ratings. In the experimental group, which used a wiki and other web 2.0 tools in e-tivities,
correlation between the grammatical competence (defined as the level of acquisition of the
target structures resulting from the performance of collaborative grammar e-tivities by means
of web 2.0 tools) and individual differences, computer literacy, and situational factors was also
examined. In the correlation analysis the only two statistically significant interrelationships that
were found were those between grammatical competence (expressed as retest score) and
perception of self-efficacy and effort in using the computer (negative correlation), respectively.
However, multiple statistically significant correlations were identified among the non-linguistic
variables (for, example, between motivation and other variables).
It can be concluded that the results of the empirical research in this dissertation indicate
moderate potential benefits of the use of web 2.0 tools (in particular, wikis and several other
asynchronous web 2.0 tools for content visualization) in grammar instruction based on
collaborative learning in a hybrid course. On the other hand, some issues related to their
implementation highlight the challenges of constructivist pedagogies in grammar instruction,
Finally, the findings of the research provide evidence for the importance of considering
individual differences as factors which, along with the pedagogical approach, task type, and
tools supporting the instruction, may determine the process of learning
Utjecaj Katula na pjesništvo Rajmunda Kunića
U ovom će radu biti prikazan utjecaj rimskog pjesnika Gaja Valerija Katula na
Rajmunda Kunića, dubrovačkog pjesnika hrvatskog latinizma. Nakon općih podataka o
hrvatskom latinizmu i njegovim glavnim predstavnicima koji su obilježili to razdoblje
hrvatske književnosti, slijedi Kunićeva biografija i stvaralaštvo s fokusom na bogat
epigramatski opus, zatim utjecaj grčkog i rimskog pjesništva na njegove pjesme. Neoterički
pjesnik Gaj Valerije Katul svojim je stilom i dikcijom uspio djelovati na našeg pjesnika, što je
ponajviše vidljivo u nekim Kunićevim epigramima, hendekasilabima i četirima elegijama,
koje će u ovom radu biti analizirane. Zbog povećeg broja Kunićevih pjesama nije moguće
analizirati čitav njegov opus, te će biti odabrane samo one u kojima je utjecaj najočitiji, od
ljubavnog kanconijera Lidi, do nekih epigrama nadgrobne i šaljive tematike, ali i invektiva,
budući da ljubavni osjećaji i satira prevladavaju u poeziji obojice pjesnika, a nipošto se ne
ustručavaju pokazati čitateljima najiskrenije emocije i dijeliti moralne poduke – posebice

Rukopisna ostavština na turskom jeziku svećenika Gjure Adama Büttnera
Gjuro Adam Büttner, svećenik Srijemske biskupije i prvi župnik u Zemunu po oslobođenju od Turaka, porijeklom je bio Nijemac. Župničku službu u Zemunu obnašao je od 1744. do 1779. godine. Njegova rukopisna ostavština na turskom jeziku pronađena je u Dijecezanskoj knjižnici u Đakovu. Sastoji se od njemačko-turskog Rječnika (126 str.) te nekoliko sveščića i listića katekizamskog i jezikoslovnog sadržaja na turskom jeziku. U svim je tekstovima turski jezik pisan latinicom. Može se pretpotstaviti da je ova građa bila namijenjena vjersko-prosvjetnom radu, jer se Zemun tijekom Büttnerova župnikovanja nalazio na samoj granici kršćanskog svijeta i Osmanskog Carstva.
Ostavština takve vrste i tolikoga obima može se na području Hrvatske smatrati pravom rijetkošću. Ovaj je rad lingvistička analiza Büttnerova Rječnika na fonetsko-fonološkoj, morfološkoj, leksikografskoj i sintaktičkoj razini
Bunjevci: ishodišta, sudbine, identiteti
Ovom knjigom autorica poduzima nove korake sa svrhom povezivanja ranijih i novijih spoznaja o etnokulturnoj baštini Bunjevaca. Put do tih spoznaja omogućili su projekti Identitet i etnogeneza primorskih Bunjevaca (2003. – 2006.) i projekt Identitet i etnokulturno oblikovanje Bunjevaca (2008. – 2013.), kojih je bila voditeljica. Na taj način nastoji zaokružiti dugi niz godina posvećenih istraživanju bunjevačke tradicijske i suvremene kulture, njegovome etnokulturnom oblikovanju i njihovim identitetima te na temelju tih saznanja iznijeti utemeljene pretpostavke i ponuditi interpretacije o njihovu ishodištu, sudbinama i mnogostrukim identitetima, u prvom redu na temelju etnoloških pokazatelja
