Mato Batorović ; Muzej grada Iloka, Ilok, Hrvatska

Abstract

The Ilok Municipal museum promotes literature, especially native literature, in several ways. It publishes works by contemporary authors: Dragica Barić Čučuk, Bogran Mesinger. From 2000 it began to organise the symposium Julije Benešić Days and publishes collected papers from that symposium: It organises the presentation
of literary works by local authors and works that are linked with Ilok and its immediate surroundings; It organises literary gatherings of
authors from Ilok or authors whose themes are linked with the Ilok region, both in the town of Ilok and in other Croatian towns: It prepares themes from secondary school students, especially for
members of literary groups, relating to authors from Ilok and enables an insight into the museum holdings. The staff of the museum takes part in symposiums with papers about Ilok authors and the literary holdings of museum collections. The staff of the
Ilok Municipal Museum believes that it is important for the local community to preserve and promote the literary works of local writers and considers these activities to be their special task.
