Doktorska disertacija kao osnovni predmet istraţivanja ima bukovinske MaĊare u juţnobanatskom okrugu u selima Vojlovica, Ivanovo i Skorenovac. Disertacija se zasniva na kvalitativnom istraţivanju zajednice. Naglasak je stavljen na neophodnost interdisciplinarnog pristupa, koji podrazumeva da je najpre bilo vaţno staviti etniĉku zajednicu u istorijski okvir, te da je pored ukazivanja na ulogu i vaţnost jezika i jeziĉkih stavova u izgradnji identiteta, bilo neophodno osvrnuti se i na analizu usmenih autobiografskih narativa. U disertaciji se, takoĊe, ispituje veza izmeĊu sećanja i identiteta, te se pokušava odgovoriti na pitanje na koji naĉin prošlost utiĉe na formiranje identiteta pripadnika zajednice. U kvalitativnom istraţivanju pokazalo se da su pored liĉnog (individualnog) sećanja, pripadnici manjinske zajednice duboko povezani sa sećanjem prethodne generacije. U autobiografskim narativima bukovinskih MaĊara, potomaka Sekelja iz Bukovine, izdvajaju se zajedniĉke strukturalne odlike i teme, zatim kolektivni narativi, kao što su etniĉki narativi koji definišu etniĉki identitet grupe. U analizi intervjua prikupljenih u terenskom istraţivanju primenjena je narativna analiza liĉnog iskustva, kao i naratološka analiza sa posebnim osvrtom na temporalnu strukturu narativa.

The research subject of the thesis are Hungarians of Bukovina in the South Banat District; settlements of Vojlovica, Ivanovo and Skorenovac. A qualitative research of the community is used as a methodology on which the thesis is based. In compiling of this work it was necessary to use an interdisciplinary approach. This implies the importance of putting the ethnic community in a historical context, as well as understanding and pointing out the role and significance of language and language attitudes in the formation of ethnic identity. In addition, an analysis of oral autobiographical narratives was conducted. The dissertation also investigates the connection between memory and identity. Attempts are being made to discover how the past influences the formation of ethnic identity of the community members. The results from the qualitative research revealed that in addition to personal (individual) memories, members of the minority community are being deeply connected to the memory of previous generations. In autobiographical narratives of Hungarians of Bukovina, the descendants of Székelys of Bukovina, common structural features and themes can be found, as well as collective narratives, these being the ethnic narratives that define ethnic identity of groups. In the analysis of interviews we have conducted, both the method of narrative analysis of personal experience, and the method of narratological analysis with emphasis on the temporal structure of narrative was applied.
