Illyrism, Croatia, South Slavic area, music, “cultural-national” conceptAbstract
The ancient Roman term “Illyricum”, reintroduced by the Catholic Church in the seventeenth century to denote the provinces of Dalmatia, Croatia, Bosnia and Slavonia, was “re-invented” by the ideologists of the Croatian National Revival movement in the 1830s as a supra-national construct. It was also used in music by many composers, performers and musicologists, as well as broader audiences and public media in nineteenth-century Croatia.
