    “2016 Año del Bicentenario de la Declaración de la Independencia Nacional” (S-3574/16) PROYECTO DE DECLARACION El Senado de la Nación: DECLARA De interés la obra humana y solidaria del padre Pedro Pablo Opeka, sacerdote argentino comprometido con la sociedad y con una voluntad inigualable para cambiar la desigualdad en el mundo. Laura E. Rodríguez Machado. FUNDAMENTOS Señora Presidente: Pedro Pablo Opeka, conocido como el Padre Pedro, es un sacerdote católico que trabaja como misionero en Madagascar. En ese país africano, uno de los más pobres del mundo, vio a chicos descalzos viviendo en un basurero y decidió ayudarlos a tener una vida digna. Con la ayuda de la fundación France Libertes, lo producido y la ayuda de jóvenes del lugar levantó casillas precarias que fueron reemplazadas por casas de ladrillos de dos pisos y les enseñó a vivir con lo que ellos producen. Los grupos de casas fueron así creando una ciudad levantada donde estaba el basurero. Nació en la ciudad de San Martin, partido General San Martin, Provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina, y es hijo de Luis Opeka y María Marolt, inmigrantes eslovenos que llegaron a la Argentina en enero de 1948 escapando del régimen totalitario en Eslovenia de Tito. De niño aprendió el oficio de albañil. A los quince años de edad decidió ser un clérigo de la Iglesia Católica y entró a un seminario de la orden Lazarista. Estudió en Lanús, vivió en Ramos Mejía e hizo el noviciado en San Miguel. Cuando aún no tenía diecisiete años construyó una casa en Junín de los Andes para una familia de indígenas mapuches.

  • Introduction
    Introduction 1 Prekmurje Slovene among the Slavic languages There is reason to think of Prekmurje Slovene as a dialect of Slovene as well as a separate language. Indeed it has carried through many of the innovations that are characteristic of Slovene, shares most core vocabulary and grammat- ical structure, and from this perspective is part of a broader dialect group of the Pannonian group of Slovene dialects, together with the Slovenske gorice, Prlekija, and Haloze dialects, which in turn share a number of characteristics that differ from the rest of Slovene as well as neighboring Kajkavian dialects in Croatia (see Ramovš 1935, 171–193 for details). In favor of Prekmurje Slovene as a language1 is its written tradition, as it has been used for several centuries in a loosely standardized form, largely, but not exclusively, as a liturgical lan- guage. From a diachronic perspective, the Prekmurje dialect offers a glimpse at a linguistic code that came into being through heterogeneous processes. As pertains to all of South Slavic, its population migrated westward from the core Slavic area in today’s Ukraine in the second half of the first millennium AD. The founder population of Prekmurje Slovene (together with the Pannonian dialects) spoke a variety of Slavic that was already structurally different from that spoken in its neighboring areas to the west in today’s Slovenia as well as to the south in the Kajkavian-speaking region of Croatia. The affinity of the founder population is no longer fully recoverable, but some intriguing evidence pointing to this possibility may be found in today’s central Russia and central Bulgaria (Schallert and Greenberg 2007).
