Sažetak
This article presents a reconstruction of selected articles from the daily newspaper, Hrvatski list, about the events that took place in Istria at the end of 1918. After a thorough analysis of newspaper articles, the pro-Croatian-minded positions of editorial staff are visible. They reflected the position of the Croatian people on the territory of Pula and Istria. With its growing influence on the public opinion, Hrvatski list is trying to skilfully manipulate the situation in the city, continuously emphasizing the Slavic origin of the population of the peninsula aiming to include it in the state of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs. Towards the end of the First World War, they intensively emphasized the connection of the Istrian Croats with other South Slavic peoples, reported on Italian pretensions towards Istria, and even used ekavian dialect to show the unity of the South Slavs. An important issue in the creation of identity was education, so the newspaper emphasized the opening of Croatian schools and teaching in the Croatian language. Newspapers played an important role in building and strengthening both their identity and nation belonging.
