Abstract

Abstract If linguistic nationalism presupposes a homogenous national language, then “dialect” taxonomies become interesting objects of study. This article examines three instances of linguistic nationalism published in Zagreb. The three texts, published in 1836, 1919, and 1995, come from (1) Ljudevit Gaj and Jan Kollár, (2) Dragutin Prohaska, and (3) Miro Kačić. The different texts propound three quite different taxonomies of “dialects” within the imagined national language. Changing strategies of dialect classification imply different understandings of the national language, reflecting in turn changing political circumstances. The Panslavism of 1836 gave way in 1919 to interwar Yugoslavism, or alternatively Serbo-Croatism, which in 1995 then gave way to Croatian particularist nationalism. The article ends with speculations about future linguistic taxonomies.

泛斯拉夫语、塞尔维亚克罗地亚语和克罗地亚语方言:萨格勒布的语言分类,1836-1997
如果语言民族主义以一种同质的民族语言为前提,那么“方言”分类就成为有趣的研究对象。本文考察了萨格勒布发表的三个语言民族主义实例。这三篇文章分别发表于1836年、1919年和1995年,来自(1)Ljudevit Gaj and Jan Kollár, (2) Dragutin Prohaska, (3) Miro ka伊奇。不同的文本在想象的民族语言中提出了三种截然不同的“方言”分类。方言分类策略的变化意味着对民族语言的不同理解,反过来反映了政治环境的变化。1836年的泛斯拉夫主义在1919年让位给两次世界大战之间的南斯拉夫主义,或者塞尔维亚-克罗地亚主义,后者在1995年让位给克罗地亚特殊民族主义。文章最后对未来的语言分类法进行了推测。

期刊介绍: Journal of Nationalism, Memory & Language Politics is a peer-reviewed journal published by De Gruyter on behalf of the Charles University. It is committed to exploring divergent scholarly opinions, research and theories of current international academic experts, and is a forum for discussion and hopes to encourage free-thinking and debate among academics, young researchers and professionals over issues of importance to the politics of identity and memory as well as the political dimensions of language policy in the 20th and 21st centuries. The journal is indexed with and included in Google Scholar, EBSCO, CEEOL and SCOPUS. We encourage research articles that employ qualitative or quantitative methodologies as well as empirical historical analyses regarding, but not limited to, the following issues: -Trends in nationalist development, whether historical or contemporary -Policies regarding national and international institutions of memory as well as investigations into the creation and/or dissemination of cultural memory -The implementation and political repercussions of language policies in various regional and global contexts -The formation, cohesion and perseverance of national or regional identity along with the relationships between minority and majority populations -The role ethnicity plays in nationalism and national identity -How the issue of victimhood contributes to national or regional self-perception -Priority is given to issues pertaining to the 20th and 21st century political developments While our focus is on empirical articles, our scope remains open to exceptional theoretical works (especially if they incorporate empirical research), book reviews and translations.
