TITLE: The Young Women’s Association. DESCRIPTION: This unsigned article discusses two newly established Young Women’s Associations (Devojačko udruženje) in Novi Sad (Újvidék) and Velika Kikinda (Nagykikinda), Vojvodina. The Vojvodina belonged to the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia which enjoyed a considerable degree of autonomy within the Lands of the Crown of Saint Stephen, or Hungary, in the dual Monarchy (from 1867) of Austria-Hungary. Serbian was one of the dominant languages spoken in the Vojvodina. The article was published in Ženski svet. List dobrotvornih zadruga Srpkinja (Women’s World. Journal of the Charitable Cooperatives of Serbian Women). The journal was published between 1886 and 1914 in Novi Sad (Újvidék), the Vojvodina, by the Charitable Cooperative of Serbian Women from Novi Sad (Dobrotvorna zadruga Srpkinja Novosatkinja). It was edited by Arkadije Varađanin, a man who was an active proponent of women’s rights and was a teacher and director of the Serbian High School for Girls established in Novi Sad, in 1874. The article describes the main function of the Young Women’s Associations as the preservation of the national language and identity. The young women from the associations would meet two times a week and read Serbian national literature or texts about the history of Serbs. The reason why these associations are considered important is the Hungarian culture that endangered Serbian culture, as the text laments and implies. The article begins with a glorification of culture and cultural progress, but also with a warning that for smaller and culturally weaker nations, the general cultural progress (meaning, the culture of the culturally “stronger” nations) might be dangerous. The text laments against foreign influences (implying Hungarian influences) in culture and everyday life, when the individual characteristics of certain nations are erased by the “foreign element.” The culture of the Serbian people is endangered, and the changes in Serbian culture include, among other things, the changes in color and shape of the national clothing in certain areas, as well as the change in the Christmas customs. The Young Women’s Associations in Velika Kikinda (Nagykikinda) and Novi Sad are established as an answer to these problems, and aimed at preserving the national identity. The goal of the association is to help the members cherish their friendship and stay nationally minded after they would get married. The text reminds the reader that the two organizations are established exactly 500 years after the defeat of the Serbian people in (the Battle of) Kosovo (1389), giving a “sparkle of hope for a more glorious future.” For responses to the establishments of these associations, see Anđelija Kuzmanovićeva, “Pozdrav devojačkim udruženjima [Salute to Young Women’s Associations],” Ženski svet, January 5, 1889.

TITLE: Aftermath of the Last General Assembly of 'Živena.' DESCRIPTION: The author of the article, Elena (Maróthy-) Šoltésová (1855-1939) was a Slovak writer, editor and publicist and a leading figure of Slovak women’s activism of the 2nd half of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century. Between 1894 and 1927 she was the chairwoman of the Slovak women’s association Živena. Lead by Maróthy-Šoltésová, Živena founded several schools for girls, organised lectures for girls in housekeeping and founded the Lipa organisation to help Slovak female embroiders to sell their work. She was also the editor of the women’s journal Živena, founded in 1910. From the perspective of Slovak nationalism, the author deals with the current practice of educating Slovak girls. In text, written at the beginning of the 1880s, criticizes the way Slovak girls are educated in the existing educational institutions, the fact they study courses in languages they don’t really understand – Hungarian and German. According to the author, the education in these institutions provokes contempt for all that is Slovak. She criticizes the fact that women’s education is measured by the knowledge of foreign languages and emphasizes the importance of their education in the Slovak language. The author notes that the current circumstances do not allow the establishment of a girls’ school in the national language and she urges women to grow Slovak language there where they can - “in the quiet shelter of the Slovak home.” In the text, education is described as a means of helping the suffering and oppressed nation. The author refuses the “overly scientific” education which “smells by emancipation” and distracts women from their natural vocation. Education should be adequate to the female vocation; the educated woman is to support her husband and be the first teacher of her children. See also, Ambróz Pietor, “Slovenky pozor! [Slovak Women, Beware!],” Národní hlásník [National Watchman] 2, no. 6 (1869): 169–73 (5pp.); and “Úloha ‘Živeny’ [Mission of ‘Živena’],” in Živena. Národní almanach [Živena. National Almanac] (Turč. Sv. Martin: Knihtlačiarsky-účastinárský spolok, 1885), 299–308 (10pp.). KEYWORDS: Women and Nation within Empire; Women and Nation-Building; Women and Relationship Between Nations in the Empire; Women and National Languages; National Identity; Women and Education; Access to Higher Education; Gendered Education; Education in National Languages; Women and Religion; Habsburg Empire; Hungary; Slovakia
