Sažetak
This is the first part of a paper that contributes to knowledge about the relationship between Brod and the people of Brod and Archbishop Josip Stadler. Through
his example it is possible to acquire a clear view of how politics dictates and forms the
consciousness of citizens towards their fellow citizens, even those whom may be ranked
among the most prominent. The political struggle at the national level was also reflected
at the local level. Stadler was a great opponent of the Yugoslav option and the entry into
a joint state with Serbia. His political option was Western, “trialistic” with a reliance on
the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy; in social matters his option was Christian-social with
a distinct feeling for the poorest citizens, regardless of religious affiliation. “Materinska
riječ- The mother tongue” as the newspaper of the Croatian-Serbian coalition (whose
leader was Dr. Vatroslav Brlić) and “Posavska Hrvatska-Posavina Croatia” as the rightwing newspaper of Frank’s side, are two papers that take a completely opposite position
towards Stadler. For the Materinska riječ, Stadler is a “dangerous man” because of his
opposition to their political program of “one nation with two names” and a common state
with Serbia. As most of the newspapers published in Brod between the two wars represented Yugoslav ideology, Stadler was rarely mentioned and practically forgotten in them.
His values for Croatian people were temporarily recognized during the Independent State
of Croatia. After the advent of the communist dictatorship, primarily in the newspaper
Brodski list, he was not even mentioned. With the collapse of the dictatorship, Brod and
the people of Brod got to know their great fellow citizen. The biggest credit for this goes
first of all to the Sisters of the Servant of the Infant Jesus, a religious community founded
by Archbishop Stadler.
