The direct contact of Slovene and English in the case of Slovene Americans and Canadians is examined from two perspectives: social and cultural on the one hand and linguistic on the other. In the fi rst part, I present the general linguistic situation in Cleveland (and to a minor extent in Washington, D.C. and Toronto), with emphasis on language maintenance and shift, the relationship between mother tongue preservation and ethnic awareness, and the impact of extralinguistic factors on selected aspects of the linguistic behavior of the participants in the study. I then compare the use of second person pronouns as terms of address and the use of speech acts such as compliments to determine the role of different cultural backgrounds in the speakers’ linguistic choices. The linguistic part of the analysis focuses on borrowing and code switching, as well as on the infl uence of English on seemingly monolingual Slovene discourse, where the Slovene infl ectional system in particular is being increasingly generalized, simpli- fi ed and reduced, and Slovene word order is beginning to resemble that of English. Finally, the rapidly growing impact of English on Slovene in Slovenia on various linguistic levels from vocabulary to syntax and intercultural communication is discussed.

I remember his care- ful and well-organized instructions with background information on the dances. I recall thinking that his fine teaching had to do with his knowledge of Kinetography Laban, which is an excellent tool to perceive and to analyze dancing movements, but also to describe movements to those of us who were not familiar with the dance forms.

Ross Johnson Brendan Simms Principal author Matjaž Klemenčič acknowledges the extensive input by team members, including several pages of text contributed by Marko Attila Hoare, Charles Ingrao and Albert Bing. Funding from the National Endow- ment for Democracy and the Slovenian Research Council facilitated Prof. Klemenčič’s research, including numerous interviews with Slovenian gov- ernment officials and former U.S. Secretary of State James Baker. Profs. Klemenčič and Dušan Janjić assumed team leadership from John A. Fine (2001-2003) in order to streamline the team’s internet commu- nication. An initial draft was submitted for project-wide review in Novem- ber 2003, which mandated considerable expansion in the chapter’s length and research base. Although the text was adopted following project-wide review in April 2005, further revisions were undertaken in 2008 to address concerns raised by two of the four outside referees in 2010, to accommodate constructive criticism raised in book reviews, and again in 2012 to incorpo- rate new evidence of U.S. and NATO complicity in avoiding the arrest of ICTY indictees. The chapter cites several confidential interviews conducted by SI scholars with several current and former officials from the U.S. State De- partment and IFOR military; in each case their identities have been recorded and stored in the Purdue University archives for later release, upon request, consistent with terms negotiated with each individual.

Arriving as sojourners and settlers, these new immigrants of various social classes and nationalities found commonality in their belief that America could change their lives for the better. Due to the chaotic nature of immigration, these new immigrant groups found solace and support among members of their own ethnicity. As a consequence, ethnic communities emerged throughout America’s cities and countryside. These communities functioned and survived by providing cultural familiarity in a new land, as well as, economic and social services to immigrants in return for their member support.

    THE NEW “OLD COUNTRY” THE KINGDOM OF YUGOSLAVIA AND THE CREATION OF A YUGOSLAV DIASPORA 1914-1951 BY ETHAN LARSON DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2020 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Maria Todorova, Chair Professor Peter Fritzsche Professor Diane Koenker Professor Ulf Brunnbauer, University of Regensburg ABSTRACT This dissertation reviews the Kingdom of Yugoslavia’s attempt to instill “Yugoslav” national consciousness in its overseas population of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes, as well as resistance to that same project, collectively referred to as a “Yugoslav diaspora.” Diaspora is treated as constructed phenomenon based on a transnational network between individuals and organizations, both emigrant and otherwise. In examining Yugoslav overseas nation-building, this dissertation is interested in the mechanics of diasporic networks—what catalyzes their formation, what are the roles of international organizations, and how are they influenced by the political context in the host country. The life of Louis Adamic, who was a central figure within this emerging network, provides a framework for this monograph, which begins with his arrival in the United States in 1914 and ends with his death in 1951. Each chapter spans roughly five to ten years. Chapter One (1914-1924) deals with the initial encounter between Yugoslav diplomats and emigrants. Chapter Two (1924-1929) covers the beginnings of Yugoslav overseas nation-building. Chapter Three (1929-1934) covers Yugoslavia’s shift into a royal dictatorship and the corresponding effect on its emigration policy.

  • Slovene-Americans in Washington, Dc
    Slovene Studies 8/2 (1986) 21-30 SLOVENE-AMERICANS IN WASHINGTON, D.C.: A CASE OF OPTIONAL ETHNICITY Linda A. Bennett "Slovenes came to Washington, D.C. as individuals and as families and did not come to form ethnic enclaves. In Cleveland it was a question of survival, and now they still form small ethnic enclaves in the suburbs. They came to Washington because they had certain occupations, and they didn't depend on their ethnic group to get started. "As far as my job is concerned, it is irrelevant that I am a Slovene. I came to Washington totally as an American with a strong ethnic background. I have never been part of an ethnic enclave in the United States, and I haven't needed other Slovenes for personal survival. Instead, when I got to Washington, I found that being with other Slovenes provided a positive and enjoyable influence on my life. It's been a matter of choice. We get things done only through voluntary cooperation, which takes more effort and commitment on the part of a relatively small number of people. But I feel most comfortable with that sort of arrangement." -A first-generation Slovene. 1 INTRODUCTION To be Slovene in Washington, D.C., is a special ethnic experience. By choice, these individuals, families and friends feel and express their ethnicity in a manner fitting their own backgrounds and the unique features of the metropolitan area. In order to be success­ ful, ethnic group activities must have a high priority, and require considerable effort on the part of a limited number of leaders in a handful of organizations.

    ABSTRACT Name: Timothy Dean Draper Department: History Title: "A Little Kingdom of Mixed Nationalities": Race, Ethnicity, and Class in a Western Urban Community—Rock Springs, Wyoming, 1869-1929 Major: History Degree: Doctor of Philosophy Approved by: Date: Dissertation Director NORTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission. ABSTRACT In 1885, the mining settlement of Rock Springs, Wyoming, witnessed one of the worst episodes of ethnocentric violence in the urban West as Euroamerican miners massacred Chinese laborers and burned Chinatown to the ground. Less than four decades later, in 1926, inhabitants of Rock Springs, including immigrants and natives, Asian Americans and Euroamericans, came together at a time of heightened national ethnic tensions to celebrate the diversity of their municipal community in the first of four annual "International Night" festivals. This study explores the apparently dichotomous reality of Rock Springs from its establishment as a mining camp during the building of the Union Pacific Railroad in the late 1860s to the conclusion of the International Night movement in the mid- to late 1920s The focus of this dissertation centers upon the role of immigrants and their descendents in constructing diverse community networks and how they syncretized those varied networks into a unifying ethos of "municipal community," an identity expressed through their sense of ethno-racial boundaries, western heritage, inter-class cooperation, and negotiation with monopoly capitalism. By focusing on ethnicity, race, class, and region, I address how the inhabitants of Rock Springs negotiated the cultural and material challenges to construction of a community identity posed by a hegemonically inclined Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

  • Suppressed Croatian–Slovenian Catholic Parish in San Francisco and Parishioners' Efforts for Its Reopening
    SUPPRESSED CROATIAN–SLOVENIAN CATHOLIC PARISH IN SAN FRANCISCO AND PARISHIONERS' EFFORTS FOR ITS REOPENING Dr. Gašper Mithans, Senior Research Associate Science and Research Centre Koper, Slovenia National parishes, which flourished among immigrants in the 19th century USA, were a compromise of Catholic leaders’ interest in keeping their followers and lay people’s desire to preserve their cultural heritage. However, over time the organizational strategy of the Church has changed: the church hierarchy incited adherents to join territorial parishes, and seldom approved the creation of new national parishes. This trend was only increased by the Second Vatican Council. In the 1980s, the US Catholic Church changed their viewpoint on parishes based on ethnic principle again with the introduction of the most recent Code of Canon Law (1983). A growing number of personal parishes today are an organizational alternative: an institutional response to religious diversification and meeting different ethnic and non-ethnic purposes.1 However, several personal parishes providing service to communities of European ancestry have been forced to close or to merge.2 An occurrence all over the USA is affecting territorial and personal parishes (except for Latino and Asian parishes) alike, usually because of lack of clergy, declining Mass attendance, as well as financial reasons.3 Also, several Slovenian parishes closed or merged, for example in Leadville, CO, Denver, CO, Sheboygan, 1 Tricia C. Bruce, Parish, and Place: Making Room for Diversity in the American Catholic Church (New York: Oxford University Press, 2017), pp. 5–7. 2 Cf. John C.
