| Abstract | Prostor na kojemu se danas nalazi grad Slavonski Brod kontinuirano je naseljen još od doba Rimljana, kada se zvao Marsonija. Kroz povijest se ime grada mijenja, od Marsonije, Broda, Broda na Savi do naziva Slavonski Brod, ali važnost samog položaja grada je kroz povijest ostala konstanta. Grad je bio sama granica između Zapada i Istoka – kršćanstva i islama, Austrije i Turaka, a danas je granica između Hrvatske i Bosne i Hercegovine, granica Europske unije te granica schengenskog prostora od 1.1.2023. U Slavonskom Brodu su povijest i identitet grada i Slavonaca utkani u nazive ulica, trgova, spomenika, pa čak i sportskih klubova. Stoga se u ovom radu analizira i interpretira Slavonski Brod kao tekst – otvoren za razne interpretacije, a ovdje je prikazana jedna od mogućih. Kroz analizu nazivlja ulica, trgova i spomenika moguće je iščitati određeni sustav vrijednosti, tradicija i identitet Brođana, a postojeće se nazivlje uspoređuje sa rezultatima ankete provedene među Brođanima i stanovnicima okolice Slavonskog Broda. U anketi građani iznose svoje stavove i mišljenja o trenutnom nazivlju ulica i o tome kojih bi simbola trebalo biti više u gradu. |
| Abstract (english) | The area where the city of Slavonski Brod is situated today has been continuously inhabited since the Roman era, when it was called Marsonia. Throughout history, the city's name has changed from Marsonia, Brod, Brod on the Sava River, to the name Slavonski Brod, but the significance of the city's location has remained a constant throughout history. The city has been a significant border between the West and the East – Christianity and Islam, Austria and the Ottomans, and today it is the border between Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, the border of the European Union, and the border of the Schengen area since January 1, 2023. n Slavonski Brod, the history and identity of the city and its inhabitants are woven into the names of streets, squares, monuments, and even sports clubs. Therefore, this work analyzes and interprets Slavonski Brod as a text – open to various interpretations, and one possible interpretation is presented here. Through the analysis of street names, square names, and monuments, it is possible to discern a certain system of values, traditions, and the identity of the residents of Brod. The existing nomenclature is compared with the results of a survey conducted among the residents of Slavonski Brod and its surrounding areas. In the survey, citizens express their opinions and viewpoints about the current naming of streets and about what symbols should be more present in the city. |
