Abstract:V uvodu diplomske naloge bom najprej utemeljil razloge za izbrano temo ter s pomočjo literature opisal bolezen in njene značilnosti ter natančno predstavil simptome. V nadaljevanju se bom posvetil orisu problematike na globalni ravni, torej začetku širjenja pandemije po svetu, saj naj bi bolezen aprila 1918 z okuženimi ameriškimi vojaki začela svoj smrtonosni pohod po Evropi, kjer se je razširila po bojnem polju in med civilisti. Seveda bom na tem mestu predstavil tudi vlogo bolezni pri odvijanju vojne ter na kakšen način je pandemija vplivala na njen razplet. Ob tem bom izpostavil posameznika, ki je pri iskanju rešitve problema namenil veliko truda ter kot načelnik zdravstvene službe v Manchestru z daljnovidnimi nasveti in ukrepi preprečil, da bi bolezen terjala še večji davek. To je bil škotski zdravnik dr. James Niven, pri opisu njegovega prispevka proti pandemiji pa mi bodo pomagala tudi poročila njegovih opažanj obolelih. V osrednjem delu diplomske naloge se bom najprej posvetil širjenju španske gripe na področju današnje Slovenije. Na tem mestu bom predstavil odziv medijev na pojav in smrtonosnost gripe; predvsem v časopisih Slovenec, Slovenski narod, Štajerc in še drugih. V veliko pomoč mi bodo tudi šolske, župnijske in ostale kronike, ki so jih ljudje pisali v tistih dneh. Največjo pozornost pa bom namenil pojavu in posledicam pandemije na Goriškem. Na tem mestu bom na kratko orisal tudi stanje v regiji po soških bitkah, stanje beguncev in vrnitev vojakov s front ter obširno predstavil pojav in širjenje bolezni ter odziv nanjo. Pri tem si bom pomagal z lokalnimi in župnijskimi kronikami ter časopisnimi članki. Nazadnje bom predstavil resnično zgodbo o tem, kako se moji predniki soočali s špansko gripo. Diplomsko delo bom zaključil s sklepom, v katerem bom povzel celotno temo diplomske naloge, poudaril glavna spoznanja pri njeni izdelavi in predstavil medicinske raziskave povezane s špansko gripo v 21. stoletju.

Title:Španska gripa na Goriškem v letu 1918
Abstract:In the introduction to the paper, I will first outline the reasons for the chosen topic and use the literature to describe the disease and its characteristics and to describe the symptoms in detail. In the following, I will focus on outlining the problem globally i.e. the beginning of the spread of the pandemic around the world, as the disease was to begin its deadly march through Europe in April 1918 with infected US troops, where it spread across the battlefield and among civilian population. Of course, I will also describe the role of the disease during the war and the impact of the pandemic on the outcome of the war. I also will highlight the person who has worked hard to resolve the problem and who, as head of the Manchester Health Service, has taken far-sighted advice and measures, to prevent the disease from claiming an even higher tax. The person I have in mind here is Scottish doctor Dr. James Niven and the reports of his observations of the sick will help me to do so. In the central part of my thesis, I will first of all focus on the spread of Spanish flu in the territory of present-day Slovenia. In this article I will describe the media response to the occurrence and lethality of influenza. Of course, the school, community and other chronicles that were written at that time will help me a lot. However, I will pay the greatest attention to the occurrence and consequences of the pandemic in Gorizia. Here I will briefly outline the situation in the region after the battles of the Isonzo, the situation of the refugees and the return of soldiers from the front, and I will give a detailed account of the emergence and spread of the disease and its response, with local, as in the previous case, parish chronicles and newspaper articles. Finally, I will also tell the true story of how my ancestors dealt with the Spanish flu. I will conclude my dissertation with a conclusion that summarizes the whole subject of the work, highlighting the main lessons in its design and explaining the medical research related to Spanish influenza in the 21st century.
