The Life and Work of Ljudevit Modec

Đuro Škvorc

Sažetak

This article portrays the life and work of Ljudevit Modec (1844–1897), a pedagogue, teacher, and textbook author. Modec’s work took place after the fall of Bach’s absolutism: at the time of the “ban-commoner” Ivan Mažuranić, as well as ban Khuen-Héderváry who had suppressed the rights of Croatian people in the second half of the 19th century and stifled the national consciousness of Croats in the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. The most fruitful part of Modec’s life transpired in Zagreb, where he was the headmaster of the Teacher Training School and the editor of Napredak, a journal of the Croatian Pedagogical-Literary Society. Also, he largely contributed to the construction of the Croatian Teacher’s Home in Zagreb.
