Sažetak
The paper deals with a specific cultural manifestation of the Croatian subethnic group Bunjevci in Serbia (county of Voivodina), which derived from the celebration marking the end of the harvest called duzijanca in the rural surroundings of the city Subotica. Belonging to the traditional heritage of the Bunjevci it transformed into a public city event in 1911. Since then it has continuously existed with occasional ups and downs in different state and political regimes. Since 1968 it has become a public manifestation of the Bunjevci subethnic group in the city of Subotica, taking place in various forms and contents during the summer months. Its church and civil segment existed separately up to 1993. Since then both aspects of the celebration have been united and enriched with new cultural contents. In our paper we will present the continuity of duzijanca as well as the transformations which this city festival went through in different periods in its more than a hundred years of existence in a multi-ethnic and multicultural environment. While it has some permanent characteristic features, it is constantly being updated by introducing new events almost every year, as a complex culture phenomenon and a living tradition that has stood the test of time and adapted to economic and political context of the contemporary society.
