Abstract

The paper on St. George’s Day customs is a result of fieldwork done by the author in the Turopolje area, especially in villages of Donja Lomnica, Gradići, Velika Mlaka and Mićevci. The attention was focused on the sequence of transformations in performing customs connected with St. George’s Day from the third decade of the last century until today. The author takes notice of some newly invented practices, which present a combination of the tradition with some new ways of entertainment, financed by various individuals and organizations out of their self-interest.
