Sažetak
With the aim of presenting the reception of the Herzog
Stjepan Vukcic Kosaca in Hercegovina in the second half
of the 20th century, the paper analyzes the contents of history
textbooks that write about the life and work of the
Herzog Stjepan and his presence in the names of streets,
squares and institutions in Herzegovinian towns and municipalities.
Considering the second half of the 20th century,
most attention is paid to the period in which Bosnia
and Herzegovina was one of the republics of the former
Yugoslavia. To illustrate the contents from medieval history,
or the ones related to Stjepan, most important are
school curricula, in which, apart from the teaching units
and lessons, the teaching of history was particularly indicative,
when during this period the constant task was
"spreading fraternity and unity" or "developing patriotic
awareness among students", the emphasis being on teaching
history of the "newer period". Judging by the curricula
and the content of textbooks from the second half
of the 20th century (at least those available to us), the youth
of Herzegovina in the mentioned period could not learn
much about this historical person whose name is associated
with the name of the area in which they live. Namely,
by looking at the texts of the textbooks up to the 90s, it
is evident that the texts in the textbooks differ, both in
scope and emphasis on certain facts. What all the authors
mention is taking of the 'Herzog' title in 1448 and the fall
of Herzegovina under the Ottoman rule, whereas all the
other facts about the Herzog Stjepan vary from one text to
another. As there were no official textbooks in the region
of Herzegovina in the 90s of the 20th century, the paper,
as an example, presents the texts only from two textbooks
(one for elementary school and the other for grammar
school) used in some schools in Herzegovina which worked
according to the Croatian curriculum, where we can
find hardly any information about the Herzog Stjepan.
Finally, the results of the research of the Herzog's presence
in the names of streets, squares and institutions of the
Herzegovinian cities and municipalities show that the interest of some individuals and institutions, who want to
give this historical person the significance he deserves, has
only recently become evident. Namely, all the streets in
Herzegovina named after the Herzog, as well as one institution,
got this name after 1990.
