Sažetak
My esteemed colleague and friend, academician Marko Samardžija, F.C.A., died on Tuesday, 19 February 2019, in Zaprešić. He was born in Vođinci. He was one of the leading authorities on the history of the Croatian standard language, and when it comes to modern history of the 20th and the 21st century, we can safely say that his expertise was unparalleled. Among the fifteen books that he wrote, one of the best is Croatian language and spelling: from unification to the end of Croatian Banovina (1918-1941), published by Školska knjiga in 2012. It contains all significant insights regarding the developments of the Croatian language during the period of the first Yugoslavia, which, albeit linguistic and philological by nature, still have their cultural and political value. My written paper is, therefore, a review, an attempt to excerpt and submit the most relevant thoughts from Samardžija’s book.
