Tomislav Livaja

The book explores the traditional visual culture of the Šokac people in the Pannonian region, with an emphasis on symbols of magic in folk handicrafts. The work represents a collection of preserved elements of the Shoka tradition, focusing on aesthetic an

Livaja analyzes handicrafts such as textiles, costumes and decorative items, highlighting their magical and protective functions. Symbols such as the cross, circle and stylized plant motifs are interpreted as bearers of spiritual and practical meanings, connected to the beliefs of the Šokacs. The book documents traditional techniques, such as weaving and embroidery, and their preservation in folklore and customs.

The author emphasizes the influence of the Pannonian zone - the flat landscape and the mixing of cultures - on the development of Shock visual art. Special attention is paid to customs, such as wedding and Easter, where handicrafts play a central role. Livaja also warns of the disappearance of traditional crafts, calling for the preservation of intangible heritage.

The book is a valuable contribution to ethnography, providing insight into the Shoka culture through illustrations and analysis. It is intended for researchers, folklorists and lovers of tradition, encouraging further study of the Šoká heritage.
