Sažetak
The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the interdisciplinary research into the Cithara octochorda church songbook conducted for the purpose of writing a master’s thesis at the Department of Musicology of the Music Academy, and the Department of Croatian Language and Literature at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Zagreb. The paper offers a short presentation of the basic musical and literary-historical features of the kajkavian songs from the Cithara octochorda obtained by previously conducted detailed musical and literary-historical analyses. The aim of the musical analysis was to show the main musical features common to all tunes, while the aim of the literary-historical analysis was to distinguish the poetic layers that had an influence on the lyrics of the songs. The results of these two separate research were then joined together by an interdisciplinary approach, with an aim to emphasize the connection between tunes and lyrics in Cithara songs. Along with the musical analysis, an example of a tabular presentation of all kajkavian tunes is off ered, which is made in order to systematize the obtained data and present them in a more representative way. Such a tabular presentation can serve as a starting point for further research or as a conceptual basis for the development of a comprehensive database on the Cithara octochorda. Finally, Advent and Christmas songs from the Cithara octochorda were compared with songs from the Czech songbook Jesličky, staré nové písničky from 1658. The similarities between several songs from the Jesličky songbook and four songs from Cithara octochorda are revealed, as well as the connections with particular songs from Pavlinska pjesmarica.
