Sažetak
Several levels of collective identities in Proština in the period between the second
half of the 19th and the dawn of the 21st century are analysed in the text. The axis of
the research includes the field research and the book of short stories entitled Štorice iz
Proštine (Stories from Proština), authored by Ante Ciliga (published under the pseudonym
Tone Valić). The analysis focuses on the relation- or situation-oriented character
of collective identities, or rather the existence of multiple identities an individual
possesses and expresses depending on a particular social situation. Along with the
Proština-related one, other identity circles of the population of Proština are presented
too: rural, Vlach, Istrian, Croatian, and, accompanying them, their relation-oriented
identity pendants. Identification processes in Proština basically correspond with the
processes in other areas of Istria: the end of the 19th century in Istria was characterised
by the identification of the rural population with local identities prevailing over ethnonational
identification. Subsequently, at the closing of the 19th and in the first couple
of decades of the 20th century, the ethno-national identification achieved a stronger
confirmation due to modernisation processes; i.e., it began to more frequently stand out
– relation- or situation-oriented – in the context of social classification.
