István Lülik

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

István Lülik (Slovene: Števan Lülik) (d. March 30, 1847) was a Lutheran schoolmaster in the Prekmurje region of the Kingdom of Hungary, today in Slovenia, in the 19th century. He lived and worked in Puconci, near Murska Sobota.

The whereabouts of his birth are unknown. He taught in a school in Rajka and later moved to the Mura March. In 1833 he translated a textbook from German into Hungarian and Prekmurian Slovenian language. One of the topics of this book is the Mura March, which he calls Szlovenszka kraina in his mother tongue, because the inhabitants of the region called themselves szloveni (Slovenes). In the Hungarian version of the book he calls them vandalus (Vandals) because Hungarian Slovenes, living near the rivers Mura and Rába, were thought to be descendants of the Vandals.

Three editions of the book were published for the use of Prekmurian Lutheran schools. Lülik died in 1847.
