Identities on Croatian Territories in Early Modern Period and Their Transformations
Kristina Husinec
Sažetak
How a person or a group perceives itself or how „Others” perceive them, depends on many factors including space, society and time in which they live. Therefore, it is important to consider how geopolitical and socioeconomical factors affect identity formation and transformation. Also, identities themselves are complex and multidimensional. Early modern period Croatian territories exist on a border of three European powers of that time (Ottoman Empire, Habsburg Empire and Republic of Venice). It is the concept of borders, physical or symbolic borders between „us” and „Others”, which strongly defines early modern period on Croatian territories. This essay examines how border between different identities is formed, interpreted and changing and how fixed or fluid categories of premodern identity truly are. In that context some of many existing identities in this complex and dynamic social and political environment are analysed.
