THE LANGUAGE OF THE URACH PRESS EDITIONS IN THE LIGHT OF THE EARLY MODERN ERA LITERARY LANGUAGE CONCEPTIONS

Sažetak
The article discusses the slams of the Protestant press ‘episode’ within context of Croatian
and regionally determined (South Slavic) philology, considering the significant amount of
Shtokavian elements present in the editions of the Urach press early period (15614563),
whose language was modelled on Chakavian tradition. Using comparative method, the
article determines the frequency and concentration of merging those two Croatian dia—
lects and the circumstances leading to abandonment of such conception in l563. Equally
important is the knowledge that even in the Cyrillic edition of the New Testament (l 563),
there is a lesser frequency of Shtokavian elements than in the older Glagolitic editions
which were possibly intended only for the narrow western strip of Croatian lands. That
fact alone questions the consistency and decisiveness of the language policy of our Urach
Protestant circle.
