In fight for the national identity

Ante Gavranović

Sažetak

‘’In the written histories of (Croatian) politics and literature, journalism is not
well represented. Journalism in our region has often been a bit of an abject profession.
In the past, other professions would eye journalists as unfi nished scholars, impractical,
and a bit too adventurous—the exact opposite of positions in civil callings, prestigious
in rank and fi le.’’1
Of the little research done on the history of the Croatian press, Josip Horvat2
and Boždar Novak3 have been the most thorough; they have shown many of the
complexities of Croatian press history. Through its development, journalism in many
countries - including Croatia - has become the “Fourth Estate,’’ but the path taken to this
designation has not been an easy one. Croatian’s young people who choose journalism
as a profession today do not know about these struggles. This paper attempts to briefl y
explore the historical movements and roots of Croatian journalism.
