Kada završava 19. stoljeće? Pučke pjesmarice svjetovnog i nabožnog karaktera u odnosu na povijest hrvatske književnosti
When does the 19th Century End? Folk Song'Books of a Secular and Religious Character Within the History of Croatian Literature

Summary/Abstract: The widespread use of folk song-books of a secular and religious character reproduced on the basis of clichés testifies to the complexity of literary life in the 19th century, where the tradition of the 18th and 17th centuries as well as that of the Middle Ages were accumulating and coexisting. Communication by means of popular folk poems/songs drew the attention of researchers to the fact that the historical development of literature is by no means unilinear. Folk song-books, with materials from various periods, direct the attention of researchers to the nature of literary-historical events - and the question arises as to what is lasting and surviving its time and what is of ephemeral value. The study of the history of 19th century literature is directed to individual creativity and its unique character as well as towards idealized folk songs and poems. No attention has been paid to communication by means of secular and religious folk poetry which conducts, on the basis of clichés, a dialogue on social values, creating and spreading bourgeois and political myths.
