Život i djelo Ljudevita Modeca. (Croatian)

The Life and Work of Ljudevit Modec. (English)

This article portrays the life and work of Ljudevit Modec (1844-1897), a pedagogue, teacher, and textbook author. Modec's work took place after the fall of Bach's absolutism: at the time of the "ban-commoner" Ivan Mažuranić, as well as ban Khuen-Héderváry who had suppressed the rights of Croatian people in the second half of the 19th century and stifled the national consciousness of Croats in the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. The most fruitful part of Modec's life transpired in Zagreb, where he was the headmaster of the Teacher Training School and the editor of Napredak, a journal of the Croatian Pedagogical-Literary Society. Also, he largely contributed to the construction of the Croatian Teacher's Home in Zagreb. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

U članku su prikazani život i djelo Ljudevita Modeca (1844.-1897.), pedagoga, učitelja i pisca udžbeničkih djela. Modec je djelovao nakon pada Bachova apsolutizma: u vrijeme bana »pučanina« Ivana Mažuranića i bana Khuena-Héderváryja, koji je tijekom druge polovice 19. stoljeća zatirao prava hrvatskoga naroda i gušio hrvatsku svijest u Austro-Ugarskoj monarhiji. Najplodonosniji dio života Modecu je bio u Zagrebu, gdje je bio ravnatelj Učiteljske škole i urednik Napretka, časopisa Hrvatskog pedagoško-književnog zbora. Pritom je dao i velik doprinos prilikom izgradnje Hrvatskog učiteljskog doma u Zagrebu. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
