Prvi svetski rat u narativima srpskih džez muzičara školovanih u Austriji: ratna odšteta kao improvizacija
World War One in Narratives of Serbian Jazz Musicians Educated in Austria: War Damages as Improvisation

Summary/Abstract: Anthropological analysis focuses on narratives of jazz musicians who acquired their formal jazz education in the Austrian city of Graz over the last five decades. In short, these narratives, on the one hand, contain the data on studying free of charge, while on the other they offer significant variations concerning the explanations for the said circumstances. Thus, the central motif is war damages for suffering and devastation during World War One that were to be settled by Austria for the Kingdom of SHS. This motif is seen as central for several reasons, and among them the ones related to time persistence of the narrative are highlighted, but also the ones concerning wider presence of the motif, since it has grown far beyond the group distributing it.
