MIKLOŠIČ´S TEXT BOOK FOR 8TH GRADE OF GRAMMAR SCHOOL AS THE BASIS FOR TEACHING THE DEVELOPMENT OF SLOVENE (LITERARY) LANGUAGE

V diplomskem delu je uvodoma raziskan razvoj šolstva in učbeniškega gradiva na Slovenskem v 19. stoletju. V ospredju je srednješolsko izobraževanje in gimnazijski učbeniki, opozorjeno pa je tudi na pripravljavce gimnazijskih beril. Med slednjimi je podrobneje predstavljen Fran Miklošič in njegova vloga pri pripravi slovenskih beril za višje razrede gimnazij. Izpostavljeno je njegovo zavzemanje za slovensko besedo v šolski praksi. Osrednji del diplomske naloge vsebuje analizo Miklošičevega Slovenskega berila za osmi gimnazijski razred (1865), prvega uradno potrjenega slovenskega gimnazijskega berila, ki kot novost prinaša literarnozgodovinski pregled slovenske književnosti. V tem delu je poudarjen pomen berila za spoznavanje razvoja slovenskega (knjižnega) jezikanarejena je jezikovna analiza Miklošičevega predgovora k berilu ter vsebinska primerjava tega berila, rabljenega v drugi polovici 19. stoletja, s sodobnimi gimnazijskimi berili. Ugotovljeno je, da je bilo Miklošičevo Slovensko berilo za osmi gimnazijalni razred (1865) za tedanje razmere že zelo sodobno. Natančno je prikazan razvoj slovenskega predknjižnega in knjižnega jezika, jezikovna podoba zajetih besedil pa je že precej posodobljena. V berilo so vključena besedila, ki so kot kanonska prisotna še v današnjih gimnazijskih berilih. Obravnavano berilo še danes omogoča spoznavanje razvojnih zakonitosti slovenskega (knjižnega) jezika.In the introduction of the thesis I researched the development of education and textbook material in Slovenia in the 19th century.
