摘要:Cultural and political contacts between Slovenes and Croats in the 19th and 20th centuries were greatly marked by diversity of political framework in the Habsburg Monarchy where the majority of Slovenes and Croats lived until l918. The neighbouring nations created basically different “ideals” and “imaginations”: Slovenes stated their demands mainly on the basis of natural law, whereas Croats derived them from the interpretation of history (differences are obvious from the JurËiË and KumiËiÊ romanesque thematisation of Zrinjsko-Frankopan conspiracy). This also affected different strategies of cultural development and its relations with the politics. It was not unusual for Slovenian cultural workers — particularly writers — to be involved in politics until the end of the 20th century while Croats distinctively divided those two domains of public life. Different circumstances (relatively extended right to vote in Austria, early introduction of direct elections into the Reichsrat, development of autonomous authorities and public life, high level of literacy; restrictive right to vote in Croatia, representation in Budapest parliament by delegates of the Croatian Sabor, high level of illiteracy) made contacts before 1918 between Croats and Slovenes dependent mostly on personal initiative; they arose to institutional level relatively late — considering a great number of Slovenian intellectuals who in the second half of the 19th century lived and worked among Croats. The creation of joint Serbian-Croatian-Slovenian state in 1918 did not lead to abolition of independency of individual national cultures that were, by then, completely formed. Croats and Slovenes were in accordance with their needs involved in political and cultural movements in Europe; this was not affected only by linguistic diversity but also by personal comprehension of historical experiences. The two nations therefore independently formed visions of future. Thus various integration movements, which at times emerged in national politics, did not have serious effect. Despite cultural diversity among the nations in the Yugoslav state, and different assumptions of supporters of unitarism, culture proved to be the generator of positive changes between Slovenes and Croats, especially immediately before the World War I and World War II. Nevertheless it encouraged greater participation between the neighbouring nations before the disintegration of Yugoslavia.
