Male novine: Informativno glasilo Hrvatskoga doma u Punta Arenasu
Male novine: An informative Magazine of the Croatian Club in Punta Arenas

Summary/Abstract: The article presents the structure, contents and local role of the contemporary magazine Male novine, an informative organ of the Croatian immigration community in the Magallanes region of Chile. Special attention is given to usage of the Croatian language in the magazine since it is entirely written in Spanish except for the sections dedicated to learning Croatian as L2. This language-learning level, unfortunately, does not exceed a marginal position within the magazine, which is not surprising, however, since the magazine is dedicated to the third and subsequent generations of Croatian immigrants and other interested parties. Additionally, the author provides her own view of the process of the (re)construction of images of Croatia and Croatianness as they are formed by Male novine, recognizing them as reflections of the mental images of the Croatian immigrant community in the Magallanes region.
