ANALYSIS OF HOLLY BOOKS IN BOSNIAN LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE CLASSES

Summary/Abstract: Two to three classes are dedicated to studying holy books in Bosnian language and literature class. Educational goals of studying are as follows: to learn significance of holy books as the endless source of artistic inspiration and foundation for culture and civilization of monotheistic people. The excerpts from Torah, Bible and Qur'an are studied. Analysis in this class represents very useful grounds for accomplishing many educational goals. This will be possible through analyzing detailed selected excerpts. One cannot disregard religious feelings of the students when studying these texts, as students, the practice has shown, approach this topic with emotions. Literature classes should help students understand texts while considering that this is, among other things, literature, but also allow them to experience it their own way, recognizing their religious convictions and emotions. It is therefore necessary to emphasize when defining them, that the holy books according to the beliefs of their followers represent the word of God and that this is precisely what separates them from other literary works. For one to accomplish that goal completely, it is necessary to examine this class using methods requiring critical opinion. In this work we presented some of the methods from the project of the instruction Through reading and writing to critical opinion, such as: free writing in the beginning and at end of the class, Venn diagram, t-table, reading with understanding. By applying these methods one can achieve educational and rearing goals of the class while it is most important that the students understand the connection between literature and the holy texts. Through these methods we managed to develop an interest among students for further independent reading of holy texts (in this case the Qur'an) and help them apply these acquired literature and theoretical knowledge on analysis of the holy books, particularly those of narrative character.
