Odraz Deklaracije u rječniku dviju Matica − novi pogled
Reflection of the Declaration in the Dictionary of Two Cultural and Publishing Societies (Rječnik dviju Matica) – a New Perspective

Summary/Abstract: In the spring of 1967, the language politics of the 1960’s and 1970’s resulted in the Declaration on the Status and Name of the Croatian Literary Language (Deklaracija o nazivu i položaju hrvatskoga književnoga jezika) – the most important document about the language of the time and one of the most important documents in the history of the standard Croatian language. Its publication is formally considered as the introduction into the Croatian Spring (Hrvatsko proljeće). Dictionary of the Croatian and Serbian Literary Language (Rječnik hrvatskosrpskoga književnog jezika) and Dictionary of the SerboCroatian Literary Language (Rečnik srpskohrvatskoga književnog jezika), published by the Croatian Cultural and Publishing Society (Matica hrvatska) and the Serbian Cultural and Publishing Society (Matica srpska), provoked numerous conflicts and polemics about the language and lexicographic issues. This article uses concrete examples to study and analyze how exactly the language issue of that period affected the choice of entries in the Croatian part of Rječnik dviju Matica and how it influenced their lexicographic processing with special regard to lexicographic levels. The research is being conducted on individual examples of fashion and clothing terminology.
