A struggle for Croatian school in town Cres
Manon Giron
Sažetak
Education on the island of Cres and in town Cres in the 19th and at the beginning of the 20th century until the end of the First World War, and under Italian occupation until 1943, was under the direct influence of countries within which jurisdiction this island was. In 1861 the county Istra and Kvarner islands was created, with Parliament and Government in Poreč. In spite of the obligation to introduce native language in elementary schools, Italian nationalists intended to introduce Italian language as teaching or obligatory subject. In town Cres there were four grades from 1815, and in school archives there is the documentation from 1860, but on four-grade school in Italian language. The school existed until the fall of Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. Even though people from Cres were forced to send their children to the elementary school with Italian language, they initiated the action to introduce Croatian language in the same school, already in 1861, when the mayor of Cres, Antonio Petris de Herrenstein invited County Government in Poreč to regulate teaching language in town Cres. In 1882 seventy-four citizens asked for the separation of schools based on nationality. The new petition was submitted in 1902. The Municipal School Board was stopping the citizens’ demands from the start of the petition until 1918, when the Monarchy seized to exist, and it stopped the possibility to reach the decision on opening a public elementary school in Croatian language in Cres.
