Perception of the Rakovica Revolt in Newspapers and the Croatian Historiography (Summary)
Alen Obrazović
Abstract
The article deals with the portrayal and perception of the Rakovica revolt and its participants in newspapers following the start of the Revolt. The article also deals with an analysis of the event in Croatian historiography. Because of different interpretations of the Revolt that changed over time, we can claim that it, as well as the figure of Eugen Kvaternik, was used for political and ideological purposes. By highlighting the key changes in the perception of the Revolt during the twentieth century, the author claims that the Revolt had been used in order to keep dualism in power, but was then disregarded until the creation of the Republic of Croatia at the end of the twentieth century.
