Ludbregiana, local history collection of the Mladen Kerstner Ludbreg Public Library
No full textGlavna tema ovog rada je Ludbregiana, zavičajna zbirka Gradske knjižnice i čitaonice Mladen Kerstner Ludbreg. U radu je dan osvrt na teoretski dio u kojem je opisano što su narodne knjižnice i koje su im zadaće, na kojim principima su ustrojene, kojim zakonskim aktima su regulirane te koji je njihov značaj za lokalnu zajednicu. U radu je prikazan povijesni pregled nastanka i djelovanja ludbreške Knjižnice u kojemu je kronološki opisan svaki značajni događaj. Nakon toga se iznosi što su to zavičajne zbirke, koju građu prikupljaju, koja je njihova korist za lokalnu zajednicu te temeljem kojih pravila djeluju. U tom poglavlju posebno je dan osvrt na Ludbregianu. Nakon općenitog dijela prelazi se na bibliografiju u kojoj je pregled svih sadržaja od kojih se Ludbregiana sastoji. Temeljem tog sadržaja izvršeno je bibliografsko istraživanje u kojem se vidi struktura građe. Kako bi se dobio što bolji uvid u korisničko iskustvo pri korištenju ludbreške zavičajne zbirke, provedeno je anketno istraživanje iz kojeg je vidljivo tko, zašto i kako koristi građu iz zbirke. Na kraju se u zaključku daje osvrt na perspektivu, daljnji razvoj i budućnost ove zavičajne zbirke.The main topic of this paper is Ludbregiana, the local collection of the Mladen Kerstner Ludbreg Public Library and Reading Room. The paper will provide an overview of the theoretical part, which describes what public libraries are and what their tasks are, on what principles they are organized, by which legal acts they are regulated, and what their significance is for the local community. The paper presents a historical overview of the creation and operation of the Ludbreg library, in which each significant event is described chronologically. It then explains what local collections are, what material they collect, what their benefit is for the local community, and the rules on which they operate. This chapter specifically provides an overview of Ludbregiana. After the general part, we move on to the bibliography, which provides an overview of all the content of which the Ludbregiana consists. Based on this content, bibliographical research was carried out, which shows the structure of the material. In order to gain a better insight into the user experience when using the Ludbreg local collection, a survey was conducted, which shows who, why, and how uses the material from the collection. At the end, the conclusion gives an overview of the perspective, further development and future of this native collection
Mapping the core dimensions of critical and workplace information literacy : a thematic analysis
No full textIntroduction. Information literacy has been praised for its transformative power but remains an academic abstraction with limited impact due to its siloed nature and failure to address sociopolitical realities. Holistic, multidomain approaches are proposed, exemplified in a novel critical workplace information literacy construct at the intersections of critical and workplace information literacy.
Method. The critical and workplace information literacy literature was thematically analysed to identify the core dimensions of information literacy in the two domains, as the groundwork for the conceptualisation of the construct. Articles from Scopus were selected following PRISMA guidelines, yielding 54 eligible articles for analysis.
Results. Five main themes were constructed organising the core dimensions of information literacy in the two domains: functional skills and competences; cognitive skills and competences; social skills and practices; critical consciousness; and critical-pedagogical approaches. Analysis revealed shared and divergent elements of critical and workplace information literacy, confirming the presence of silos within the field.
Conclusion(s). The study unpacks nuanced layers of information literacy that have not been previously mapped, allowing for their integration into the critical workplace information literacy construct to be refined in a Delphi study. The integrated functional and critical dimensions hold potential for theoretical coherence and societal relevanc
Loanword Accentuation in National Televisions' Information Broadcasts
No full textU radu se iznose ključne teorijske postavke hrvatskoga akcenatskog sustava, pri čemu se ističe problematičnost naglasnog normiranja leksema koji su u hrvatski jezik ušli iz drugih jezika, odnosno procesom jezičnoga posuđivanja. Budući da se naglasna norma smatra jednom od najkontroverznijih normi standardnoga jezika, navode se suprotstavljena stajališta pojedinih hrvatskih jezikoslovaca oko toga treba li nastojati smanjiti jaz između normativno postavljenih pravila i stvarne uporabe naglasaka ili pak treba prihvatiti dvostrukosti u naglašavanju stranih leksema. Osim toga, detaljnije se pojašnjavaju procesi adaptacije koje posuđenica mora proći kako bi se potpuno uklopila u leksik hrvatskoga jezika te se ovisno o stupnju prilagodbe prikazuju pojedine kategorije posuđenica. U središnjem dijelu rada spominju se važna obilježja procesa jezičnoga čistunstva, nakon čega se donose rezultati prikupljeni analizom govora voditelja središnjih informativnih emisija nacionalnih televizija: Hrvatske radiotelevizije, Nove TV i RTL televizije. Zabilježenim korpusom posuđenica utvrdit će se prisutnost odstupanja od naglasne norme u govoru voditelja svih triju praćenih televizijskih programa uz izrazita dijalektalno istaknuta naglasna obilježja voditelja RTL televizije i Nove TV. Provedena analiza potvrdit će teorijski okvir o kompleksnosti naglasne norme hrvatskoga jezika te istaknuti kako su i u javnoj komunikaciji mogući odmaci od uporabe standardnoga jezika.The thesis brings out the Croatian accentual system key theoretical postulates, emphasising the issue of accentual norms for lexemes that came to Croatian language from other languages, through the process of lingual borrowing. Given the fact that the accentual norm is considered to be one of the most controversial standard language norms, the thesis will present selected Croatians linguists’ conflicting views regarding whether should we aim to minimize the gap between the normative rules and true accent usage, or should we accept the duality in the foreign lexeme accentuation. Additionally, the processes of the adaptation that the loanword must go through in order to completely adjust to the Croatian language lexicon will be explained in more detail and categorized based on the adaptability degree of the loanword. The central part of the thesis discusses important properties of the language purity process, and the results compiled from the national television news broadcast host’s speech analysis: Croatian Radiotelevision, Nova TV and RTL television. The gathered loanword corpus aims to prove the existence of oscillations from the accentual norms in all three broadcast’s host’s speeches, with the specific dialectally coloured accentual characteristics of the RTL and Nova TV hosts. The analysis conducted proves the complexity of the theoretical framework of the Croatian language accentual norms’ and highlights conceivable deviations from the standard language usage in the public communication
Lexicographical processing of Croatian archaeological terminology
No full textOvaj je diplomski rad zamišljen kao nacrt hrvatskoga rječnika arheološke terminologije
koji može poslužiti kao poticaj za stvaranje velikoga i sveobuhvatnoga hrvatskog arheološkog
rječnika. Zasad hrvatskoj leksikografiji nedostaje specijalizirani rječnik arheološke
terminologije, što priziva blisku suradnju filologa i arheologa.
Korpus ovoga diplomskog rada čine arheološki termini preuzeti iz zadnjih brojeva časopisa
Vjesnik Arheološkoga muzeja u Zagrebu, arheološkoga godišnjaka koji izlazi od 1870. godine
i časopisa Prilozi Instituta za arheologiju koji izlazi od 1985. godine. Radovi iz kojih su
ekscerptirani arheološki termini odabrani su zbog svoje aktualnosti i recentnosti te su poslužili
kao relevantan medij koji je osigurao dostatan korpus za filološku i leksikografsku obradu. U
prvom se dijelu rada opisuju osnovna leksikografska načela izrade terminološkoga rječnika, a
u drugome dijelu rada uspoređuju se i kritički opisuju definicije ekscerptiranih arheoloških
termina iz najmanje dvaju različitih leksikografskih priručnika. Naposljetku donose se vlastiti
prijedlozi rječničkih definicija odabranih arheoloških termina kako bi se ukazalo na dosadašnju
neusustavljenost te važne domene hrvatskoga specijaliziranog leksika.This dissertation is envisaged as a preliminary framework for a Croatian dictionary of
archaeological terminology, intended to stimulate the development of a comprehensive
Croatian archaeological lexicon. To date, Croatian lexicography lacks a specialized
archaeological terminology dictionary, a gap that necessitates close collaboration between
philologists and archaeologists.
The corpus of this study comprises archaeological terms drawn from the most recent issues of
Vjesnik Arheološkoga muzeja u Zagrebu, an annual publication issued since 1870. and Prilozi
Instituta za arheologiju, published since 1985. Articles were selected for term extraction on the
basis of their topical relevance and currency, thereby furnishing a suitably robust medium for
philological and lexicographical analysis. In part one, the fundamental lexicographical
principles underlying the compilation of a terminological dictionary are delineated. Part two
offers a comparative and critical examination of the definitions of the extracted archaeological
terms, as presented in at least two distinct lexicographical reference works. Finally, the thesis
advances original proposals for dictionary definitions of selected archaeological terms, thereby
highlighting the present absence of systematic treatment within this vital domain of Croatian
specialized lexicon
Uloga razine jezičnog umijeća u drugom jeziku u inhibicijskoj kontroli kod hrvatskih govornika engleskog kao drugog jezika (L2)
No full textResearch in bilingualism over the past few decades has increasingly focused on the impact of language knowledge on one’s cognition. Influential language models in bilingual studies addressing this relationship include the Inhibitory Control Model and the Bilingual Interactive Activaction Model (BIA). While the former focuses on the cognitive processes behind managing cross-linguistic competition, the latter emphasizes the non-selective and dynamic nature of lexical access. Testing these models and the effect of language proficiency on inhibition abilities often requires reaction-time based tests like the lexical decision task (LDT). This study examined the relationship between second language (L2) proficiency and inhibitory control in L1 Croatian speakers of L2 English. Forty-six participants from various educational backgrounds completed the LEXtale vocabulary test and a visual LDT featuring cognates, non-cognates, and pseudowords. The participants were divided into three proficiency groups based on their LEXtale scores - advanced, intermediate, low-intermediate. The study predicted cross-linguistic co-activation and hypothesized that advanced participants would be less sensitive to the cognate effect while reacting faster to non-cognates and pseudowords. Such a pattern was expected to reflect improved inhibitory control, as more proficient bilinguals were presumed to manage heightened lexical competition more effectively. A significant cognate facilitation effect was found, which confirmed the parallel activation hypothesis. However, no interaction with proficiency was detected, suggesting the effect was stable across groups. While non-cognate and pseudoword reaction times (RTs) decreased with higher proficiency, only pseudoword processing showed a stronger group-level effect. Regression analysis indicated that LEXtale scores predicted pseudoword RTs independently of general lexical speed. At the same time, group comparison showed no significant differences between advanced and intermediate groups, nor between intermediate and lower-proficiency participants. These results suggest that L2 proficiency improves overall lexical efficiency, but its specific role in inhibitory control remains inconclusive without independent cognitive measures.Istraživanje dvojezičnosti se u zadnjih nekoliko desetljeća sve više usmjerilo na djelovanje razine jezičnog umijeća na kognitivne procese. Utjecajni jezični modeli u istraživanjima dvojezičnosti koji se bave ovim odnosom uključuju Model inhibicijske kontrole i Model dvojezične interaktivne aktivacije (BIA). Prvi se model usredotočuje na kognitivne procese u pozadini međujezične aktivacije, dok drugi naglašava neselektivnu i dinamičnu prirodu pristupa leksičkim jedinicama kod dvojezičnih govornika. Testiranje ovih modela, kao i utjecaja jezične kompetencije na inhibicijske sposobnosti, često se provodi uz pomoć testova temeljenih na mjerenju vremena reakcije, poput zadatka leksičke odluke (LDT-a). Ovaj istraživački rad ispituje odnos između znanja drugog jezika (L2) i inhibicijske kontrole kod hrvatskih govornika engleskog kao drugog jezika (L2). Četrdeset i šest sudionika, različitih obrazovnih razina, riješilo je test jezične procjene LEXtale i zadatak leksičke odluke koji je uključivao kognate, nekognate i pseudoriječi. Sudionici su podijeljeni u tri skupine na temelju rezultata LEXtale testa - napredna, srednja i niža-srednja skupina. Pretpostavka istraživanja je bila da će doći do međujezične aktivacije u svim skupinama te da će napredniji sudionici pokazati manju osjetljivost na kognate te reagirati brže na nekognate i pseudoriječi. Očekivalo se da će takav obrazac biti pokazatelj poboljšane inhibicijske kontrole s obzirom na pretpostavku da će govornici s višom razinom jezične kompetencije učinkovitije, odnosno, brže donijeti leksičku odluku tijekom sukoba leksičkih kandidata u njihovom mentalnom leksikonu. Uočen je značajan facilitacijski efekt kognata, čime je podržana hipoteza o paralelnoj aktivaciji. Međutim, nije utvrđena interakcija s razinom jezičnog znanja, što upućuje na relativnu nepromjenjivost facilitacijskog efekta u svim skupinama. Iako su sudionici reagirali brže na nekognate i pseudoriječi s porastom razine jezičnog znanja, izraženiji efekt zabilježen je samo kod pseudoriječi unutar pojedinačnih skupina. Regresijska analiza pokazala je da LEXtale rezultat predviđa vrijeme reakcije na pseudoriječi neovisno o općoj brzini reagiranja na riječi. Istovremeno, usporedba svih skupina sudionika nije pokazala značajne razlike između napredne i srednje razine, niti između srednje i niže razine jezične kompetencije. Zaključno, rezultati sugeriraju da viša razina znanja jezika poboljšava opću brzinu prepoznavanja riječi dok specifičan utjecaj na inhibicijsku kontrolu je potrebno dodatno istražiti uz pomoć zasebnih kognitivnih testova
Speech production in individuals with atypical disfluencies
No full textLjudski je govor vrlo često karakteriziran raznim netečnostima, tipičnim ili atipičnim. Cilj je ovoga rada dati pregled postojeće literature o proizvodnji govora u osoba čiji su iskazi obilježeni atipičnim netečnostima, s naglaskom na dva najčešća poremećaja tečnosti govora – mucanje i brzopletost. Rad je podijeljen u teorijski i praktični dio. U teorijskome dijelu objašnjavaju se razni mehanizmi koji leže u osnovi ovih poremećaja. Neurološka ispitivanja pokazuju da između osoba s mucanjem/brzopletošću i tečnih govornika postoje razlike u obrascima aktivacije mozga i anomalije u područjima zaslužnim za govornu proizvodnju i motoričku kontrolu. U svrhu objašnjavanja kako poremećaji u jezičnom planiranju i motoričkoj izvedbi, kao i poteškoće s fonološkim kodiranjem doprinose nastanku atipičnih netečnosti, nudi se pregled najpoznatijih psiholingvističkih teorija. Nakon toga slijedi dio o akustičkim i fiziološkim karakteristikama govorne proizvodnje, uključujući ulogu larinksa, vrijeme uključivanja glasa i vremensko trajanje netečnosti. U radu se razlaže i DIVA računalni model koji objašnjava odnos između moždanih regija uključenih u govorno usvajanje i proizvodnju. U praktičnome dijelu rada daje se pregled literature o tretmanu mucanja i brzopletosti, kao i konkretne vježbe za smanjenje simptoma poremećaja i postizanja govorne tečnosti.Human speech is very often characterized by various disfluencies, whether they are typical or atypical. The aim of this thesis is to provide an overview of the existing literature regarding the speech production of people whose utterances are characterized by atypical disfluencies, focusing on the two most common speech fluency disorders – stuttering and cluttering. The paper consists of a theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part explains the various mechanisms that underlie these disorders. Neurological studies show that there are differences in brain activation patterns and anomalies in areas responsible for speech production and motor control between people who stutter/clutter and fluent speakers. An overview of the most important psycholinguistic theories is provided with the aim of explaining how disturbances in language planning and motor execution, as well as phonological encoding issues contribute to the development of atypical disfluencies. This is followed by a section on acoustic and temporal characteristics of speech production, including the role of the larynx, voice onset time, and duration of disfluencies. The paper also elaborates on the DIVA computational model which explains the relationship between brain regions involved in speech acquisition and production. The practical part of the thesis provides a literature review of stuttering and cluttering treatment, as well as specific exercises for reducing disorder symptoms and achieving speech fluency
Sexism in marriage practices. Sociological and filmological analysis of a social problem with an emphasis on the territory of the former Yugoslavia
No full textOvaj diplomski rad analizira seksizam u predsvadbenim i svadbenim običajima te njihovim filmskim prikazima u dvama filmovima, Paradi (2011) i Lisicama (1969), s naglaskom na područje bivše Jugoslavije. Osmišljen je kao spoj komparativne književnosti i sociologije, kao kombinirani pristup u kojemu se analizira relevantna znanstvena literatura s područja etnologije, feminizma i sociologije roda te vrši analiza filmova uz pomoć vizualnih metoda, uključujući semiotičku i diskurzivnu analizu. Teorijski okvir uključuje radikalni i psihoanalitički feminizam s pripadajućim predstavnicama Adrienne Rich, Carole Pateman i Nancy Chodorow, kao i teoriju rodne performativnosti Judith Butler. Rad ukazuje na važnost kritičkog pristupa starim svadbenim običajima, od kojih su se neki zadržali sve do danas te podsjeća na relevantnost feminizma i teorija roda za razumijevanje ponašanja, kulturnih vrijednosti i običaja nekog društva. Istraživanje relevantne etnološke literature s područja Krivog Puta, Posušja, okolice Novske, podravskog sela Hlebine te ludbreškog kraja, ukazala su na postojanje dvostrukih standarda u odgoju dječaka, odnosno djevojčica, na štetu posljednjih, kao i na, s obzirom na lokalitet, ponavljajuće rodno diskriminatorne prakse i običaje poput rabljenja pogrdnih naziva za neudane žene, isključivog preuzimanja muževog prezimena, prizivanja muških potomaka, simboličke zamjene mlade za novac, simboličnog preobražaja mlade u domaćicu, oblačenja bijele vjenčanice, ali i zabrane nošenja bjeline i vela za trudne djevojke, kao i štetne prakse poput svođenja mladenaca i provjera nevinosti. Kontekst bivše Jugoslavije je u tom smislu kratko uspoređen s odgovarajućim vremenskim kontekstom Velike Britanije, iz čega su proizašle brojne sličnosti u stavovima i praksama. Kratko je obrađen i aktualni cake-smashing običaj, čija popularnost raste u suvremenom SAD-u i šire, koji ukazuje na relevantnost teme danas. Semiotička i diskurzivna analiza odabranih scena filmova je rezultirala zaključkom da su prikazi seksističkih (pred)svadbenih običaja, u vezi s patrijarhalnim simbolima i diskursima tradicionalne muškosti, ženstvenosti i braka, prizvani u svrhu osvještavanja, parodiranja, odnosno kritiziranja patrijarhalnih normi koje često vode u netoleranciju i nasilje.This graduate thesis analyzes sexism in pre-wedding and wedding customs and their film depictions in two films, The Parade (2011) and Handcuffs (1969), with an emphasis on the area of the former Yugoslavia. It is designed as a combination of comparative literature and sociology, as a combined approach in which relevant scientific literature from the fields of ethnology, feminism and sociology of gender is analyzed and films are analyzed with the help of visual methods, including semiotic and discursive analysis. The theoretical framework includes radical and psychoanalytic feminism with associated representatives of Adrienne Rich, Carole Pateman and Nancy Chodorow, as well as Judith Butler's theory of gender performativity. The work indicates the importance of a critical approach to old wedding customs, some of which have remained until today, and reminds us of the relevance of feminism and gender theories for understanding the behavior, cultural values and customs of a society. The research of relevant ethnological literature from the area of Krivi Put, the Posušje, the Novska region, the village of Hlebina in the Podravina region and the Ludbreg area, pointed to the existence of double standards in the upbringing of boys and girls, to the detriment of the latter, as well as, with regard to the locality, recurring gender-discriminatory practices and customs such as the use of derogatory names for unmarried women, the exclusive adoption of the husband's surname, the invocation of male descendants, the symbolic exchange of the bride for money, the symbolic transformation of the bride into a housewife, the wearing of a white wedding dress, but also banning the wearing of white clothes and the veil for pregnant girls, as well as harmful practices such as forcing the newlyweds to consummate the marriage and virginity tests. In this sense, the context of the former Yugoslavia was briefly compared with the corresponding time context of Great Britain, from which many similarities in attitudes and practices emerged. The current cake-smashing custom, whose popularity is growing in the modern USA and beyond, was also briefly covered, which indicated the relevance of the topic today. The semiotic and discursive analysis of selected scenes from the films resulted in the conclusion that depictions of sexist (pre)wedding customs, in connection with patriarchal symbols and discourses of traditional masculinity, femininity and marriage, were invoked for the purpose of raising awareness, parodying, or criticizing patriarchal norms that often lead to intolerance and violence
Mitski likovi u Američkim Bogovima Neila Gaimana
No full textThis thesis examines Neil Gaiman’s American Gods (2001) as a postmodern reimagining of myth within the fantasy genre, focusing on the novel’s engagement with Joseph Campbell’s monomyth and Carl Jung’s archetypal theory. As modern society largely abandons its traditional deities, their stories persist and evolve, adapting to contemporary realities. Fantasy serves as a literary form that reconnects readers to these enduring by placing them in new contexts. Gaiman’s American Gods exemplifies this process by reimagining ancient mythological figures with modern cultural forces, such as media and technology, thereby creating a narrative that interrogates belief, identity, and meaning in today’s world. At the heart of the novel is Shadow Moon whose journey from passivity to agency reflects the structure of Campbell’s Hero’s Journey and the psychological transformation described in Jung’s concept of individuation. Unlike traditional heroic figures driven by physical strength or violence, Shadow’s heroism emerges through the power of words, which ultimately resolve the central conflict between the old gods of fading religions and the new gods of modernity. American Gods is situated within a broader theoretical framework, beginning with an exploration of the significance of myth through the works of Mircea Eliade and Claude Lévi-Strauss, alongside Campbell’s monomyth and Jungian archetypes. It then defines fantasy as a genre, drawing on foundational theorists such as Tzvetan Todorov, Rosemary Jackson, Kathryn Hume, and J.R.R. Tolkien, while utilizing Farah Mendlesohn’s categorization of fantasy narratives and Vladimir Propp’s structural analysis of folktales. Brian Attebery’s analysis of fantasy’s relationship to myth further informs the interpretation of Gaiman’s novel as a contemporary myth-making text. The thesis demonstrates how American Gods uses fantasy not as escapism but as a means to confront and reinterpret cultural and spiritual tensions in the modern age. By reworking traditional mythological forms and integrating new symbolic characters, Gaiman’s novel reveals the adaptive power of myth and its ongoing relevance in shaping personal and collective identity. Ultimately, this thesis argues that American Gods illustrates how myth continues to play a crucial role in how individuals and societies interpret their place in the world
Cinematographic apparatus of the Soviet Union - propaganda silent film
No full textU ovom diplomskom radu analizirana je jedna od umjetničkih propagandi Sovjetskog
Saveza - film. U vrijeme formiranja države, prevladavali su filmovi bez snimljenog zvuka
koji su svoju umjetničku moć pokazivali kroz vizualni aspekt. Sovjetska propaganda
temeljila se na jakoj vizualnosti poput agitprop postera i agit-vlakova koji su širili
boljševičku ideologiju diljem velike države. Tako se i filmska umjetnost pokazala kao jak
instrument za širenje političkih i partijskih ideja.
Na temelju analize dva uspješna sovjetska filma; Oklopnjača Potemkin (rus:
Bronenosec Potemkin, 1925, r. Sergei Ejzenštejn) i Čovjek s filmskom kamerom (rus.
Čelovek s kinoapparatom, 1929., r. Dziga Vertov), pokazuje se inovativnost montaže,
kreacije sadržaja te ostale filmske novine. Ruska inovativnost radikalno mijenja način na
koji su filmovi strukturirani i shvaćeni, mičući se s izravnog narativnog kontinuiteta na
dinamičnije kinematografsko iskustvo vođeno idejama.
Uz uvrštene analize filmskih kadrova iz odabranih filmova, argumentacija je
upotpunjena pomoću domaće i strane literature (filmskih eseja, recenzija iz znanstvenih
časopisa, biografskih i autobiografskih knjiga). To pokazuje visoku zainteresiranost za
sovjetsku filmsku umjetnost tijekom 1920-ih godina. Kritičari donose konkretne recenzije
i komentare već nakon filmskih premijera, te se na njihove osvrte i dalje vraćaju razni
suvremeni i ondašnji filmaši i recenzenti.
Ideologija, estetika i publika tri su glavna čimbenika koji su utjecali na stanje filma i
njegov razvoj 1920-ih. Ideološki element odnosi se na promicanje boljševizma kroz
vizualne aspekte filma. Vizualni efekti bili su temeljni alat nijemog filma i sovjetske
propagande u to vrijeme. Slike su snažne, jasne, pune simbolike, akcije i brzine, što
olakšava prenošenje željenih informacija.This master thesis analyzes one artistic propaganda of the Soviet Union - film. At the
time of the formation of the state, silent films prevailed, which showed their artistic power
through the visual aspect. Soviet propaganda was based on strong visuals, such as
agitprop posters and agitator trains that spread the Bolshevik ideology throughout the vast
country. Thus, film art proved to be a strong instrument for spreading political and party
ideas.
Based on the analysis of two successful Soviet films; Battleship Potemkin (Russian:
Bronenosec Potemkin, 1925, dir. Sergei Ejzenštejn) and Man with a Movie Camera
(Russian: Čelovek s kinoapparatom, 1929, dir. Dziga Vertov), the innovativeness of
editing, content creation, and other film innovations are demonstrated. Russian innovation
is radically changing the way films are structured and understood, moving away from
straightforward narrative continuity to a more dynamic, idea-driven cinematic
experience.
In addition to the included analyses of film stills from selected films, the
argumentation is supplemented by domestic and foreign literature (film essays, reviews
from scientific journals, biographical and autobiographical books). This shows a high
interest in Soviet film art during the 1920s. Critics provide specific reviews and comments
after film premieres, and their comments are still being referred to by various
contemporary and former filmmakers and reviewers.
Ideology, aesthetics and audience are three main factors that influenced the state of
film and its development in the 1920s. The ideological element refers to the promotion of
Bolshevism through the visual aspects of film. Visual effects were a fundamental tool of
silent film and Soviet propaganda at that time. The images are strong, clear, full of
symbolism, action and speed, which makes it easier to convey the desired information
First Names of the Baptized in the Parish of Saint Vitus in Varaždin from 1878 to 1889
No full textOvaj diplomski rad bavi se onomastičkom raščlambom osobnih imena krštenih u Župi svetog Vida u Varaždinu u razdoblju od 1878. do 1889. godine. Kao izvor građe poslužila je matična knjiga krštenih dostupna na internetskom portalu FamilySearch. U proučavanom razdoblju u matičnu je knjigu upisano 1671 krštene djece. Analiza je obuhvatila čestotnost osobnih imena, njihovo jezično podrijetlo, tvorbenu strukturu, broj sastavnica te kriterije odabira osobnoga imena krštenoj djeci. U rad je uvršten i kratak osvrt na povezanost društvenog staleža roditelja s odabirom višestrukog imena djetetu, kao i na imena blizanaca i nezakonite djece. Rezultati rada doprinose boljem poznavanju značajki osobnoimenske građe u drugoj polovici 19. stoljeća u sjevernoj Hrvatskoj.This thesis presents an onomastic analysis of first names recorded in the baptismal register of the Parish of Saint Vitus in Varaždin during the period from 1878 to 1889. The primary source of data is the baptismal register available through the online portal FamilySearch. A total of 1671 baptized children were entered into the register in the examined period. The analysis focuses on the frequency of personal names, their linguistic origin, morphological structure, number of name components, and the criteria underlying the selection of names given at baptism. The thesis also includes a brief overview of the correlation between the social status of the parents and the choice of multiple names for the child, as well as the naming of twins and illegitimate children. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of anthroponymic practices in northern Croatia in the second half of the 19th century
