One hundred years of community, sacraments, celebrations, and 100 years of sharing the good and bad events of life.

The rich legacy of over seven thousand christenings, two thousand and two hundred weddings and four thousand funerals recorded in the Parish archives made me pose and think of the lives and labors of four or five generations of its parishioners and pastors. And as I perused the archival data on the his- tory of your Parish, I felt deeply touched by both narratives of the collective and snippets of the personal histories. These histories record hardships and extraordinary tenacities of the Croatian immigrants to Chicagoland. They bear witness to their hopes and aspirations, disappointments and triumphs over a century in which they took part in sev- eral wars and struggled with economic crises. They also document their social successes as politicians, judges and other professionals, athletes, artists and various celebrities and, trace them to their Bridgeport community, where they them- VHOYHVRUWKHLUDQFHVWRUVEHORQJHGWR6W-HURPH¶V)RUH[DPSOHWKHODWH0D\RU%LODQGåLüDVZHOODVWKH'DOH\IDPLO\RU ,YDQ0HãWURYLüZKRVFXOSWHGWKHIDPRXVWZLQVWDWXWHV7KH%RZPDQDQG7KH6SHDUPDQWKDWSLHUFHWKHVN\DERYHWKH HQWUDQFHRIWKH*UDQW3DUNZHUHDOOGUDZQWR6W-HURPH¶V%XWDERYHDOOWKHVHKLVWRULHVEHDUUHFRUGRIWKHSLYRWDOUROH H[WUDRUGLQDU\VXFFHVVHV RIWKH6W-HURPH¶V&URDWLDQ&KXUFKLQSURYLGLQJWKHIRFXVDVZHOODVZD\VDQGPHDQVIRUWKH members of the Parish to reach out and help one another.

  • The Formation of Croatian National Identity
    bellamy [22.5].jkt 21/8/03 4:43 pm Page 1 Europeinchange E K T C The formation of Croatian national identity ✭ This volume assesses the formation of Croatian national identity in the 1990s. It develops a novel framework that calls both primordialist and modernist approaches to nationalism and national identity into question before applying that framework to Croatia. In doing so it not only provides a new way of thinking about how national identity is formed and why it is so important but also closely examines 1990s Croatia in a unique way. An explanation of how Croatian national identity was formed in an abstract way by a historical narrative that traces centuries of yearning for a national state is given. The book goes on to show how the government, opposition parties, dissident intellectuals and diaspora change change groups offered alternative accounts of this narrative in order to The formation legitimise contemporary political programmes based on different visions of national identity. It then looks at how these debates were in manifested in social activities as diverse as football and religion, in of Croatian economics and language. ✭ This volume marks an important contribution to both the way we national identity bellamy study nationalism and national identity and our understanding of post-Yugoslav politics and society.

  • The Catholic Church and Croatia's Two Transitions·
    Religion, State & Society, Vol. 30, No. 1,2002 The Catholic Church and Croatia's Two Transitions· ALEX J. BELLAMY The Roman Catholic Church in Croatia has received a considerable amount of criticism, both in Croatia and overseas, for its connection with the conservative nationalism of Franjo Tudjman's regime.2 For many, the church was a bastion of radical nationalism which promoted intolerance towards Croatia's Serbian minority and failed to speak out against human rights abuse. The church, they argued, promoted a neoconservative revolution dubbed 'retraditionalisation' by Croatian sociologist Josip Zupanov, which provided legitimisation for the Tudjman govern­ ment. Furthermore, the western media associated the church with Croatian crimes committed in Eastern Slavonia, Krajina and Bosnia and Hercegovina and emphasised the church's past connections with the fascist regime in Italy and the puppet regime created in Croatia during the Second World War which was responsible for the deaths of up to 600,000 Serbs, Jews, Gypsies and Croatian opponents. This article attempts to challenge this line of thinking by demonstrating the role of the Catholic Church in the two transitions which took place in Croatia during the 1990s. I argue that the church was split between the rural clergy and the urban leadership.' On the one hand there was the conservative nationalist rural clergy, which was indeed responsible for many of the affronts outlined above and discussed in greater detail below. On the other hand, however, the church hierarchy based in Zagreb opposed a narrow nationalist conception of the church's mission in newly independent Croatia. The church was a direct target for Serb propaganda and shells during the 1991-95 war and fulfilled a particular role during this time as a result.

    Dalibor Renić S.J.1 Attitudes Towards the Science-Religion Relations in the Catholic Church in Croatia Published: Renić, Dalibor, “Attitudes Towards Science-Religion Relations in the Catholic Church in Croatia,” in Science and Christian Faith in Post-Cold War Europe: A Comparative Analysis 25 Years after the Fall of the Berlin Wall, eds. Giandomenico Boffi and Marijan Sunjić (Vatican City: Lateran University Press, 2015), 37-52. The intention of this article is to offer a synthesis and a comment on the attitudes of the Catholics in Croatia in regard to the recent debates on the relationship between faith and science, and on the so–called New Atheism, which alleges to be founded on scientific arguments. When I say Catholics in Croatia, that includes both the positions of the bishops and clergy, and the attitudes of the laity. In order to ensure that my opinions are not simply personal or arbitrary, I chose to support them by my own analysis of the contents of the leading Catholic weekly paper in Croatia called Glas Koncila (Voice of the Council). The focus of the analysis was precisely how that paper reacted, and reported on the aforementioned debates on faith, science, and atheism during the peak years of the New Atheism controversy. In that sense, this article is also a case study. 1. Catholic Church in Croatia According to the last official census the population of Croatia was 4,284,889 (2011). By religious affiliation, the population was 84,28% Catholic; 4,44% Orthodox; 1,47% Muslim; 0,34% Protestant; 3,81% Atheist; 0,76% Agnostic.

    6 The nation in social practice II Language, education and the Catholic Church The language question Many writers argue that language is one of the distinguishing aspects of a nation. Eugene Hammel, for instance, suggested that in the Balkans, linguistic and religious identification are the primary sources of nationality.1 Attempts to form a codified language for the Southern Slavs were a cornerstone of the Illyrian movement in the nineteenth century and both Yugoslav states tried to enforce a standardised state language as a means of avoiding the potentially fractious nature of the national language question.2 The significance attached to the unifying aspects of a common Southern Slavic language provoked a reaction among Croatian nationalists in the Yugoslav era. Challenges to the idea of a common South Slavic language was a key component of the Croatian move- ments in the 1960s, 1970s and 1990s. For nationalist activists, ‘the Croatian standard language is for the Croatian nation, just as any other standard langu- ages are for other nations. Croatians do not have any other standard language. The rights of a certain language cannot be determined by the fact that it is more or less similar, completely dissimilar or very similar to some other language.’3 Because of the perceived importance of language in framing national identity, the language question not only dominated political debate during the Yugoslav period but also continued to create controversy in independent Croatia. In the early 1990s, Vjesnik ran a campaign complaining about the proliferation of English names among new businesses in Zagreb. This campaign was taken up by a HDZ representative in the Sabor who proposed a law stipulating that new firms had to be given Croatian names.

  • Pe Etar to Omev M Mitrikes
    Petar Tomev Mitrikeski The Author's Path I was born on November 28, 1969 in Prilep in the Diocese of Prespa and Pelagonia in Macedonia to a Christian family of Macedonian Bulgarians. On mmy father’s side were landlords, and distinguished merchants and craftsmen, while on my mother’s side they were all nationally aawaken freedom fighters within the troops of the legendary IMRO. My father, engineer Tomislav Petrov (1936‐2014), a chemist by basic training (University of Zagreb, Croatia),, but a justice‐loving eccentric by choice, nouurished my affection towards natural sciences during my childhood. My mother, Mrss. Mariya‐Magdalena Blagoeva Garbeska, a forward thinking but gentle women in herr soul, taught me how to value one’s freedom and dignity. Both my grandmothers, Mrs. Stevka Angeleva Cvetkova (1899‐1994) on father’s side, and Mrs. Milevoya Christova Yaneva (1915‐1997) on mother’s side, have perseveringly taught me Christian values. Although I did not understannd it back then, later on such faith has pulled me through all delicate life situations. I came to Zagreb by train in 1989 during one October’s eve which was hinting at the coming politicaal turmoil. I knew no one, and spoke little Croatian yet understood everything. Thhe elusiveness of life wanted me to spend my first evening in Zagreb sleeping on a bench in the Main Railway Station. Yet, the next morning I was strikingly aware that II would be staying here longer that previously planned. Over the years, the white town of Zagreb and the lovely people that I have been attached
