Abstract
This study proposes a comparative analysis of the circulation of information between two peripheries of the Habsburg Monarchy (Croatia and Transylvania), respectively between a periphery and a center (Croatia and Pest), following the way in which the uprising in Rakovica in October 1871, together with its background and political connotations, were received, interpreted, and further transmitted to the Romanian-speaking public in Transylvania and Hungary by the Romanian press of the time. The objective of the study is to highlight the differences between the central and provincial press of an important ethnic group in Dualist Hungary, as well as to trace how a series of violent, unexpected, and potentially politically destabilizing events within one ethnic group were received and contextualized by the political elite of another ethnic group.
