Title: Razumevanje dediščine Cirila in Metoda v luči slovenskega katolištva in narodne zavesti Authors: ID Malmenvall, Simon (Author) Files: RAZ_Malmenvall_Simon_2025.pdf (2,65 MB) MD5: 5AEF9CA8B0BA09998EC415AF0FAEC483   Language: Slovenian Work type: Article Typology: 1.01 - Original Scientific Article Organization: FPE - Faculty of Law and Economics Abstract: Izhodišče tega prispevka je avtoriteta Franca Grivca (1878–1963), dolgoletnega profesorja ekleziologije in vzhodne teologije na ljubljanski Teološki fakulteti (1920–1963), ki vse do danes velja za največjega poznavalca Cirila in Metoda med slovenskimi izobraženci. Pri njem so se prepletale ideje krščanske edinosti, slovanske vzajemnosti in slovenske narodne zavesti. V tem pogledu je nadaljeval in poglobil proces, ki ga je v slovenski kulturi sredi 19. stoletja, v času oblikovanja modernega slovenskega naroda, začel pedagog in mariborski škof Anton Martin Slomšek (1800–1862). Od tod se prispevek posebej posveča izvorom omenjenega Grivčevega vrednotenja, to je interpretacije vloge svetih bratov kot nosilcev verske in jezikovne samozavesti slovenskih prednikov. Pri takšnem razumevanju preteklosti in snovanju želene prihodnosti, vključno z uvedbo slovenskega jezika v bogoslužje, sta na prehodu iz 19. v 20. stoletje izstopala frančiškan in jezikoslovec Stanislav Škrabec (1844–1918) ter škofijski duhovnik Ivan Vrhovnik (1854–1935). Slednji se je ob sklicevanju na zgled solunskih bratov zavzel tudi za ustanovitev Družbe svetih Cirila in Metoda, med različnimi plastmi javnosti razširjene in politično vplivne organizacije. Njeno poslanstvo je bila gradnja slovenskih šol in spodbujanje poučevanja slovenskega jezika na narodnostno mešanih območjih ob meji z nemškim in italijanskim prostorom.

Title:	Understanding the heritage of Cyril and Methodius in the light of Slovenian Catholicism and national consciousness
Abstract:	The point of departure for this article is the scholarly authority of Franc Grivec (1878–1963), a long-serving professor of ecclesiology and Eastern theology at the Faculty of Theology in Ljubljana (1920–1963), who is still regarded as the foremost Slovenian expert on Saints Cyril and Methodius. In his work, the ideas of Christian unity, Slavic solidarity, and Slovenian national consciousness are closely intertwined. In this respect, Grivec continued and deepened a process initiated in Slovenian culture in the mid-nineteenth century—during the formation of the modern Slovenian nation—by the pedagogue and Bishop of Maribor, Anton Martin Slomšek (1800–1862). Building on this foundation, the article focuses in particular on the origins of Grivec’s interpretation of the role of the holy brothers as bearers of the religious and linguistic self-confidence of Slovenian ancestors. Within this vision of the past and the corresponding conception of a desired future—including the introduction of the Slovenian language into the liturgy—the Franciscan friar and linguist Stanislav Škrabec (1844–1918) and the diocesan priest and historian Ivan Vrhovnik (1854–1935) emerged as especially significant figures at the turn of the twentieth century. Drawing on the example of the Thessaloniki brothers, Vrhovnik in particular also advocated the establishment of the Society of Saints Cyril and Methodius, a broad-based and politically influential organization. Its mission was to establish Slovenian schools and to promote the teaching of the Slovenian language in ethnically mixed regions along the borders with German- and Italian-speaking lands.
