Abstract

With the help of relevant literature and press, this paper analyzes and describes the mentality and behavior of people in Kosovo and Metohija in the period between the two world wars. The way of life was determined by a mainly agrarian existence on small farms, and by cultural and educational backwardness of the population, especially in the countryside. It was hard to adopt modern influences from nearby towns, because farmers jealously guarded their way of life, customs, and traditions. However, positive qualities such as hospitality and humor, and also colorful costumes, traditions, a great number of different customs and folk literature, are some of the important features of the population of Kosovo and Metohija preserved to this day.
