Sažetak
In order to acquire a more fundamental insight into the life path and literary activities of Stanko Vraz, the Slovenian and Croatian poet and cultural public figure, it is essential to take into account the primary source materials passed down by some of some of his collaborators and friends. One such inheritance is archived in the Styrian Provincial Archives (Steiermärkische Landes Archiv). The word here is about the family holdings of Ivan Macun, the Slovenian linguist and writer (1821-1883). Along with Stanko Vraz, Macun had been the promoter of the Illyrian idea, and due to such activities both the Slovenian and Croatian culture and literature are in debt to him in many aspects. The author of this paper analyses and demonstrates the archive written matter, especially the original letters that Stanko Vraz [Jakob Frass] (1810 – 1851) had written to Stepan Hočevar (1808 - 1883), sharing the same views with him; then the letters written to Ljudevit Gaj (1809 – 1872), the ideological creator of the Illyrian Movement, and the ones written to the aforementioned Ivan Macun. Also, the importance of the Slovenian Illyrians is stressed in the paper, because their stay in Graz during the mentioned time period had greatly contributed to the Illyrian Movement's development. The role of Stanko Vraz, who proved himself as a writer both in his Slovenian as well as Croatian writings was especially prominent, and he goes down in history as one of the greatest writers of the then Slav south.
