Special emphasis is laid on the position and on the changes of positions of cognitive subjects within the poems, situating thus Vidric’s poetics within the cognitivist context.

Jedno od enigmatskih, prijepornih mjesta u književnokritičkoj literaturi iščitavanja, opisivanja pjesništva Milorada Stojevića terminološke je prirode. Većina je povjesničara i kritičara nastojala imenovati autorovu poetiku ne bi li time došli do što preciznije deskripcije sustava. Zapravo, nije problem u točnosti tih opisa, jer većina ih niti ne griješi, već u samoj potrebi za imenom. A iz mnoštvenosti imena poetikâ zapravo nemamo njezino ime, kako Leibniz imenuje — potpuni termin. Metaforički rečeno, književna se kritika oko nje vrti kao mačka oko vruće kaše. Za imati potpuni termin potrebno je imenovati dovoljan broj različitih stilskih, poetskih, ideoloških itd. karakteristika/ obilježja. Što je iscrpniji opis, time smo bliže svetome gralu književne kritike — terminu.

More...The paper explores relations of both Serbian nationalist and anti-nationalist intellectuals towards Karl Kraus’ work. Analysis of the “Last days ofmankind“ shows that Kraus wrote satires against ruling circles of the Habsburg Monarchy, demanded its reorganization, and even its destruction. He mostly ridiculed the top circles of the Habsburg Monarchy and German Reich, and unmasked their war plans against Serbia. He ridiculed warmongering Wiennese press, intellectuals, who betrayed their vocation by supporting German nationalism and Habsburg imperialism. Whereas some of the most distinctive Croatian Yugoslav-oriented intellectuals in the aftermath of WWI highly respected Karl Kraus, Serbian intellectuals have almost utterly neglected this talented non-conformist, who sympathised with Serbian and Yugoslav tendences despite their unpopularity in his own surroundings. Furthermore, interest for Kraus is much more visible in today’s Croatia than in Serbia. The paper’s goal is to offer an explanation of lack of interest for Kraus among Serbian intellectuals. In the twilight of socialism, majority of them showed nationalist parochialism, and a part of them expressed even unbridled warlike attitude, which contributed to thorough neglect of Kraus’ voluminous, intellectually demanded and uncompromising pacifistic work. At the same time, anti-nationalist and pacifistic intellectuals were prepared to pay attention only for such aspects of the Kraus work, while they have neglected other aspects such as his criticism of pan-German imperialist tendences recognizable throughout the short 20th century.

Teška i turbulentna vremena uzrokovana slabljenjem Osmanskoga Carstva („bolesnik s Bosfora“) imala su ozbiljne posljedice na položaj i stanje krš ćanskog stanovništva sve do austrougarskog zaposjedanja Bosne i Hercegovine (1878). U takvim društvenim prilikama živio je i djelovao fra Grgo Martić. On je bio angažiran na m nogim društvenim područjima života kao i u sferi kulture i prosvjete. Ovdje ćemo predstaviti sve važnije aspekte njegova djelovanja.

For many years, local governments have not paid much attention to real estates they owned, but fortunately, that is slowly changing. With the implementation and adoption of the Report on the performed audit of the efficiency of real estate management and the disposal of local and regional self-government units for the period from 2012 to 2014, from March 2016, adopted by the State Audit Office, as well as the adoption of the State Property Management Act (Official Herald NN 52/18) and the State Property Management Strategy for the period 2019-2025. (Official Herald NN 96/19), a major shift has been made in the management and disposal of real estates owned by local self-government units (hereinafter: LGUs). When we talk about the concept of assets, we must emphasize that this paper focuses only on real estates (land, business premises, apartments) as the most valuable non-financial assets. Also, great progress in relation to the disposal of real estate has been made with the adoption of the Real Estate Evaluation Act (Official Herald NN 96/19), because it finallyregulated, in a unique way, the method of real estate market evaluation. The topic of the efficiency of management and the disposal of real estate owned by local self-government is increasingly occupying the interest of the leaders of these units, their employees, the public, the scientific community, and especially the local economic community. Effective real estate management in a local unit has a direct impact on creating a better life for the local population and greater interest from potential investors. This paper will emphasize the responsibility of local selfgovernment to approach real estates in their ownership responsibly and in a way so that the following elements are always transparent: how much real estates the LGU has, how much they are worth, how much is spent on them, how much income they bring in, and who uses them and under which conditions. All of the above is necessary to obtain the highest quality information needed to make decisions important for the local economic development, as well as to prepare strategic plans for real estate management and disposal.

Contemporary Australian society with its developed multiculturalism policy encourages all Australian immigrants to preserve mother tonque language and culture, and the system of regular education also encourages second and third generation children of immigrants to learn their ancestor’s language in the national educational curriculum. The author in this paper analyzes the work of Saturday and ethnic schools in three Australian states, South Australia, Victoria and New South Weles, where as part of the educational program Croatian language classess are taught in grades 1-12. The collected dana covers altogether fifteen school centers of the above mentioned three states where Croatian language classes are taught.; two centers in the state of South Australia – School of Languages and the Croatian Sport Centre in the city of Adelaide; six centers in the state of Victoria – Altona, Keilor Downs, Roxburgh Park and Westall in Melbourne and three centers in the town of Geelong – Holy Family Primary School, Victorian School of Languages (North Geelong) and the Croatian Catholic Centre; six centres in the state of New South Wales – Terrey Hills, Strathfiled, Beverly Hills, Liverpool, Blacktown and one centre in the town of Wollongong (Croatian Catholic Centre). The goal of this analysis is linguistic behaviour of 550 students and 60 teachers in these centres since the students are second, third and even fourth generation of Croatian immigrants, and the teachers are mostly second generation of immigrants, which unfortunately is a confirmation of evident loss of bilingualism in Australia.
