Cantor-teacher Ruzsics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cantor-teacher Ruzsics (Prekmurian: Kantor-školnik Ružič, Slovene: Kantor-učitelj Ružič) was a Hungarian Slovene elementary school teacher, cantor and poet in the 18th century. He lived and worked in village of Felsőszölnök, Hungary. His first name and ethnicity is unknown. The last names Ruzsics and Rüsics occur in Felsőszölnök today, but this doesn't prove that his ancestors were Slovenians, he was most probably of Croatian descent.

He wrote his Slovenian-language hymnal in 1789, the book consists of liturgic songs in the Prekmurian dialect. It was later copied and distributed by Mihály Bertalanits and Ferenc Marics.
