Abstract

This master thesis deals with the collective memory of sailing of vapor alongside places Sutivan, Supetar, Splitska, Postira, Pučišća, Povlja and Sumartin on the island of Brač. Relying on the qualitative method of narrative analysis and theoretical concepts, an effort has been made to answer the question whether sailing of vapor is a place of remembrance and a figure of memory and why it is followed by nostalgia. A special emphasis has been put on the collective memory of the people born between 1955 and 1960 who sailed with vapor at the beginning of the 1970s. The thesis has been structured into three parts with every part dealing with the analysis and interpretation of sailing as a place of remembrance, figure of memory and the anchorage of nostalgia.
