| Abstract | U radu se osvjetljavaju aspekti demografske, društveno-gospodarske, obiteljske i kulturne povijesti barbanskoga mikroprostora. Obrađuju se podaci iz matičnih knjiga krštenih, vjenčanih i umrlih za razdoblje od 1815. do 1900. te iz knjige Status animarum iz 1882. s ciljem rekonstrukcije demografske slike Župe, a pritom se koristi kvantitativna, odnosno statistička te analitička metoda. U početnome dijelu donosi se pregled dosadašnjih povijesnodemografskih istraživanja istarskoga područja, iznosi se kratka povijest vođenja matičnih knjiga, opisuju se počeci povijesne demografije i razvoj „nove historije“ u okrilju djelovanja škole Annales, ocrtava se povijesni okvir i podastire sažet prikaz administrativnoga ustrojstva i organizacije zdravstvenoga sustava u Istri od pada Mletačke Republike do uspostave Druge austrijske uprave, uz osobit osvrt na položaj Barbana. Glavni dio rada predstavlja istraživanje dinamike demografskih kretanja, pri čemu se primjenjuje mikroistraživački, interdisciplinaran i komparativan pristup propitivanju veza između demografskih pokazatelja te društveno-povijesnih procesa, gospodarskih i zdravstvenih prilika, klimatskih uvjeta i njihovih implikacija na svakodnevni život žiteljâ lokalne zajednice. Zaključci se uspoređuju s rezultatima objavljenih radova o demografskim trendovima u drugim župama na hrvatskome prostoru te se postavljaju u širi europski kontekst. Prouĉavaju se stope nataliteta, nupcijaliteta i mortaliteta s obzirom na godišnji i mjesečni raspored, udio posmrčadi, blizanaca i izvanbračne djece, društveni i dobno-spolni sastav žiteljstva, imena krštenikâ, uloga krstiteljâ i primalja, hitna krštenja u smrtnoj opasnosti, zanimanja i podrijetlo roditelja i krsnih kumova. Na temelju matica vjenčanih analizira se povezanost sezonskoga rasporeda vjenčanja s crkvenim pravilima i opsegom poljoprivrednih poslova, najviša i najniža te prosječna dob supružnikâ, kao i dobna razlika meĊu njima, udio ponovnih brakova i onih između krvnih srodnika, provenijencija i raznovrsnost zanimanja svjedokâ te intenzitet migracijskih kontakata lokalne zajednice s drugim župama. Uvidom u matice umrlih razmatra se udio smrtnosti s obzirom na dobno-spolnu strukturu, pri čemu se posebna pozornost posvećuje maternalnomu te mortalitetu dojenčadi i nahočadi. Iznose se dobivene spoznaje o prosječnoj doživljenoj dobi, uzrocima smrti i populacijskih kriza te njihovih razmjera na Barbanštini, ali i u drugim lokalitetima u Istri. Na osnovi knjige Status animarum opisuje se struktura kućanstava, dobni sastav umrlih, kao i prezimena koja ukazuju na provenijenciju i selidbena kretanja. |
| Abstract (english) | Key demographic, socio-economic, family, and cultural-historical aspects of Barban‟s micro area will be highlighted in the thesis. Selected analysis material consists of records of births, marriages, and deaths from the period of 1815 to 1900, and data from the book Status animarum dating to 1882. The analysis is aimed at reconstructing the demographic picture of Barban district by means of analytic and quantitative, i.e. statistical methods. An overview of past demographic-historical research of the Istrian peninsula is brought in the Introduction – a brief historical sketch of keeping parish registers, the beginnings of historical demography, the development of “New History” in the framework of Annales school of history, and the historical framework with a brief survey of administrative structure and healthcare organization in Istria from the fall of the Venetian Republic to the establishment of second Austrian dominion, with special reference to Barban and its position. Main body of the thesis regards researching dynamics of demographic trends by applying a microresearch, interdisciplinary, and a comparative approach to establishing correlations between demographic indicators and socio-historical processes, along with economic and sanitary circumstances, weather conditions, and their implications for everyday life in the local community. Concluding remarks are drawn in comparison to results from previously published papers on demographic trends in certain districts within the borders of present-day Croatia, and are furthermore placed in a broader European context. Additionally, there is the study of birth, marriage, and death rates on a parallel monthly and yearly basis, paired with figures detailing frequencies of posthumous children, twins, out-of-wedlock children, social and age-sex makeup, names given to baptized children, the role of the baptizer and the midwives, emergency baptisms in case of mortal danger, profession, and the origin of parents and godparents. Based on wedding registers, an analysis of correlating seasonal timetable of weddings according to church rules with the extent of farm work is put forward. Charts detailing the lowest, highest, and average age of spouses, as well as age differences, and rates of remarriages, marriages among relatives, alongside shares of different professions among noted marriage witness and frequency of migratory contacts between the local community and other districts are likewise provided. An insight into the death registers provides a wealth of information with reference to death rates by sex and age ratio, in which specific attention is given to maternal and childhood mortality (groups like infants and foundlings). Data on average life expectancy, causes of death, population crisis and their scale in Barban district, and other places around Istria is also brought forward. Moreover, an assessment of household structure, death rates by age, and surnames that indicate origin or migratory patterns is made based off data in the book Status animarum. |
