| Abstract | Tradicijska kulturna baština proučava se u svojoj općoj važnosti s posebnim osvrtom na
bitnu ulogu u izgradnji, shvaćanju i očuvanja identiteta uopće te identiteta hrvatskog naroda u
Bosni i Hercegovini. Također, promatra se ideja tradicije kao aktivne, svrhovite i pozitivne
činiteljice u složenom kulturološkom ozračju Bosne i Hercegovine, gdje se njezina služba
pomjera iz pasivnog registra prošlosti u budućnost ove zemlje. Stoga se u radu identitet Hrvata
u Bosni i Hercegovini, kao sjedinjen s Republikom Hrvatskom, a utjelovljen u samu Bosnu i
Hercegovinu, razumijeva upravo kroz njihovu tisućljetnu tradiciju, a poglavito predstavljenu
kroz crkveno-pučku baštinu koja podrazumijeva godišnje običaje izvođene i ponavljane na
određene blagdane i spomendane. Naime, među hrvatskim narodom u Bosni i Hercegovini
posebno je izražena povezanost puka i Crkve, pa samim time i isprepletenost pučkih i vjerskih
običaja koji zajedno čine hrvatsko-katolički identitet. Običaji, obredi i ophodi sagledani su kroz
svoje apotropejske, panspermijske, socijalne, estetske i druge funkcije, ali specifično i kroz
doživljaje ljudi koji su te običaje živjeli ili ih žive i danas. Zato se u radu koriste i izvorni iskazi
kazivača prikupljeni na terenu u razdoblju od 2016. do 2022. godine, a sve s ciljem da se
tradicijska kulturna baština kao identitetski okvir Hrvata u Bosni i Hercegovini shvati u svom
cjelokupnom kontekstu. |
| Abstract (english) | The traditional cultural heritage has been studied in its all-around importance with a
specific focus on the important role of building, understanding and preservation of identity in
general and for the Croatian inhabitants in Bosnia and Herzegovina as well. Furthermore, the
idea of tradition as an active, purposeful and positive force in the complex cultural environment
of Bosnia and Herzegovina, where its role as a passive history register is propelled into the
future of this country, is observed. Thus, in this work, the identity of Croatians in Bosnia and
Herzegovina, as united with the Republic of Croatia, and imbodied in Bosnia and Herzegovina
itself, is understood exactly through their millenia-long tradition and especially represented
through the church-folk heritage, which implies every year traditions exercised and repeated on
certain holidays and memorial days. As a matter of fact, among Croatian folk in Bosnia and
Herzegovina, the connection between the folk and the church is especially significant, and by
that itself, the church and folk traditions are intertwined, which together create the CroatianCatholic identity. Customs, rites and rituals are looked at through their apotropaic, panspermic,
social, esthetic and other functions, but also specifically through the experience of persons who
have lived and live those traditions to this day. For that reason, the original statements of the
storytellers collected on the field between 2016 and 2022 are used, all to fully grasp and
understand the traditional cultural heritage of Croatians as the identity frame in Bosnia and
Herzegovina. |
