Abstract

U radu se istražuje uloga hrvatskog jezika u transformaciji etničkog i kulturnog identiteta potomaka hrvatskog iseljeništva iz Južne Amerike. Etnološko i kulturnoantropološko istraživanje temeljeno je na kvalitativnoj metodologiji, polustrukturiranim intervjuima s osmero kazivača pripadnika 3. i 4. generacije potomaka iseljenika, koji pohađaju ili su pohađali Croaticum- centar za hrvatski kao drugi i strani jezik na Filozofskom fakultetu u Zagrebu. Poseban naglasak je na iskustvima kazivača stečenim nakon dolaska u Republiku Hrvatsku. Istraživanje je pokazalo kako boravak u Hrvatskoj i učenje jezika stvara u kazivačima osjećaj veće pripadnosti Hrvatskoj i samim time jača i nadograđuje njihov hrvatski etnički i kulturni identitet koji su započeli kreirati u zemlji rođenja kroz svoje obitelji i iseljeničke zajednice.

Abstract (english)

The work investigates the role of the croatian language in the transformation of the ethnic and cultural identity of the descendants of croatian emigration from South America. The ethnological and anthropological research is based on a qualitative methodology, semi- structured interviews with eight speakers, members of the 3rd and 4th generation of migrants, who attend or have attended Croaticum- the center for croatian as a second and foreign language at the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters in Zagreb. Emphasis is placed on the narrators' experiences gained after their arrival in the Republic of Croatia. The research showed that staying in Croatia and learning the language awakens in the storytellers a greater sense of belonging to Croatia and thus strengthens and builds their croatian ethnic and cultural identity, which they began to create in their country of birth together with their immigrant families and communities.

Abstract (spanish)

El trabajo investiga el papel de la lengua croata en la transformación de la identidad étnica y cultural de los descendientes de la emigración croata de América del Sur. La investigación etnológica y antropológica se basa en una metodología cualitativa, entrevistas semiestructuradas con ocho hablantes, miembros de la 3a y 4a generación de emigrantes, que asisten o han asistido a Croaticum- el centro de croata como segunda lengua y lengua extranjera en la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras en Zagreb. Se hace hincapié en las experiencias de los narradores adquiridas tras su llegada a la República de Croacia. La investigación mostró que la estancia en Croacia y aprendizaje del idioma despierta en los narradores un mayor sentido de pertenencia a Croacia y, por lo tanto, fortalece y construye su identidad étnica y cultural croata, que comenzaron a crear en su país de nacimiento junto con sus familias y comunidades de inmigrantes.
