200 godina Friedricha Engelsa

Author(s): Claus Thomasberger,Alpar Lošonc,Ankica Čakardić,Zvonko Šundov,Miroslav Artić,Michael Brie,Maroje Višić,Vera Vratuša,Kazimir Majorinc,Srđan Šljukić,Marica Šljukić,Bojan Vranić,Nataša Jovanović Ajzenhamer,Ivan Markešić,Mislav Miholek,Duško Radosavljević,Katarina Peović,Petra Kurtović / Language(s): Croatian,Serbian / Publication Year: 2020

This anthology book is published on the occasion of the bicentennial of the birth of Friedrich Engels, an exceptional thinker and theorist of the revolution. Editors Maroje Višić and Miroslav Artić gathered renowned domestic and international scientists who tried to reevaluate Engels' works and his scientific contribution. The idea behind the book is to point out the everlasting value and significance of Engels’ revolutionary philosophy. Contributing authors offered analytical reading of Engels' ideas, addressing pressing issues in economics, politics, religion, feminism, ideology and in other segments of contemporary society. The papers in an anthology are organized under the chapters: The Reception of Engel’s Philosophy, Actuality of Engels Today with subchapters on working-class and precariat, peasantry as the subject of change, early Christianity as an inspiration; and the last chapter is Revalorization of Family and State. The first chapter tackles the questions if Engels was more than an interpreter of Marx or simply the first Marxist who contributed to the banalization of Marx. It then investigates reception of Engels’ philosophy in ex-Yugoslavia specifically and in philosophical theory in general. The second chapter demonstrates actuality and relevance of Engels today by discussing the topics of working-class and precariat, by making comparison between early industrial society and contemporary society and by tracking development of socialism from utopia to a science. Chapter also deals on the peasantry whose role as a subject of change is thoroughly problematized. Special part of the chapter is dedicated to the influence of the practice of early Christianity on the formation of Engels’ revolutionary idea and to what extent original Christian community served affected the development of Engels’ thought. Final chapter brings papers that, under new circumstances, re-examine the understanding of the state-family relation and their dynamic. This comprehensive anthology attempted to revalorize and appraise Engels’ own contribution to science and philosophy 200 years after his birth. For this it was necessary to “divorce” Engels from Marx so that the fallacy of statement that Engels was second violin to Marx becomes striking.Chapter one tackle the question of whetherEngels was more than an interpreter of Marx or simply the first Marxist to contribute to the banalization of Marx.= Engels' reception is then examined both in the former Yugoslavia and in philosophical theory in general.Special part of the chapter is dedicated to influence of the practice of early Christianity on the formation of Engels’ revolutionary idea. That is, to what extent the examples of the original Christian communities influenced the development of Engels' thought

Dva doma. Hrvatska radna migracija u Njemačku kao transnacionalni fenomen

Author(s): Jasna Čapo / Language(s): Croatian / Publication Year: 2019

Der vorliegende Band analysiert Umstände und Folgen der kroatischen Arbeitsmigration nach Westdeutschland in den 60er und 70er Jahren des 20. Jahrhunderts. Bekannt unter dem Begriff Gastarbeitermigration wurde diese Wanderung in der ersten Zeit als vorläufige Beschäftigung der vornehmlich jüngeren männlichen Population mit niedriger Berufsqualifikation realisiert, in der Folge entwickelte sie sich aber zu einem längerfristigen Verbleib sowie Nachzug ganzer Familien nach Deutschland. Das Buch enthält Kapitel über Migranten und ihre Nachkommen, die sogenannte transnationale Generation in Deutschland. Die Grundlage für das Buch lieferten die mit Kroaten in Deutschland geführten Gespräche in der Zeitspanne von 2002 bis 2017. Dabei werden Schlüsselthemen und Metaphern erörtert, die aus dem Leben der Kroaten im Aufnahmeland (damaliges Westdeutschland) und dem Herkunftsland (damaliges Jugoslawien, heute Kroatien und Bosnien und Herzegowina) entspringen, aber auch jene, die sich aus dem transnationalen sozialen, jenseits der staatlichen Grenzen geschaffenen Raum herleiten.

Proceedings Ecofeminism: between women's and green studies, edited by Goran Đurđević and Suzana Marjanić (Durieux Publisher, Zagreb, 2020), consists of 40 texts from the humanities and social sciences (anthropology, journalism, political science, sociology, literary theory, science of education) and art (poetry and prose), written by 37 authors from Croatia, Australia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Italy, North Macedonia, Serbia, Slovenia, the United Kingdom and the United States. The starting point for edited book was workshop cycle on the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Zagreb organized with help of professor Drago Roksandić and there was created idea for book by Mirjana Grabovac, Karmen Ratković and Suzana Marjanić. Also, various colleagues such as Dražen Tončić and Mirta Maslać from Durieux, artist Kristina Pongrac and reviewers Ivica Bakota, Zlatko Bukač and Ana Stojanović have been an important part of this volume. The aims of the collection are to actualize ecofeminism and encourage critical reflection and analysis of long-term ecofeminism in Croatia and Southeast Europe; permeation of global and local approaches and knowledge transfer; openness to young authors. For these reasons, the book can be read on several levels: theoretical as a contribution to the knowledge of the theory of ecofeminism in the context of contemporary trends, socio-political as an analysis of social processes and structures, activist through the analytical perspective of activism of individual groups and actors in public, performative and political life. The final part of the volume are poems and this piece of book shows a holistic approach to ecofeminism and integration of scholarship, essays and art which is leading back to the roots and indigenous perspectives of life and community understood as integration.

The rationale behinf the birth of Phantom of Freedom was to promote good literature, the literature that by its spirit and imagination goes against "borders", and boreders are, particularly here and today, rather too many. In an endless contrasting of national, geographic, ideological and linguistic differences, similarities are totally forgotten. The editorial board of the periodical is international, consisting of Ammiel Alcalay, Miljenko Jergovic, Igor Lasic, Semezdin Mehmedinovic, Jurica Pavicic, Nenad Popovic, Dusanka Profeta, Andrea Radak, Dalibor Simpraga and Slaven Tolj.

Junak ili Čudovište

Author(s): Mirta Maslać / Language(s): Croatian / Publication Year: 2018

Junak ili čudovište, a novel by Mirta Maslać, is autobiographical in tone, but any stricter categorising would exclude an entire range of its completely heterogeneous elements. This is a diary of an illness and rehabilitation that functions also as a book about pop-culture and art, and about the way that motifs and narratives of the literary avant-garde, rock, and TV series shape our subjectivity. The novel that, besides familiar genre places, offers a merciless insight into the body as the uncanny locus of trauma, presenting the self-destruction without any romanticising. Despite the subdued black humour that colours this whole story, somebody will probably read it as a confession or testimony, a narrative shaping of one's own life in the perspective of existential crisis, maybe even death. But here, the struggle for authenticity is somewhere else, beyond the questions of truthfulness. Hero or Monster shows how, using a certain cultural repertoire, the self can »theatricalise« itself to itself, not for the sake of spectacle, but for the sake of self-reflection. That is the reason this novel is about a peculiar »taming of a monster«: a hard-laboured procedure of discursive creation of something that until now looked only as an unspeakable, unthinkable quantity, trauma generator, and pure danger. This taming is done by writing. Mirta Maslać was born in 1993, in Zagreb. She graduated in comparative literature and Croatian language and literature from the Zagreb Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences. She published a theoretical study on the vocabulary in drag practices, and the novel Hero or Monster.

Kritike, predgovori, razgovori, 1962. — 2011.

Author(s): Želimir Koščević / Language(s): Croatian / Publication Year: 2012

The activity of Želimir Koščević started at the beginning of ’60s, while he was still studying the History of Art at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Zagreb. At the time, the Yugoslav society was, in the sphere of visual arts, firmly oriented towards progressive creative concepts. Croatia and Zagreb were the home of one of the liveliest art scenes in Europe. Koščević personally contributed to the scene as a curator of the Student Centre Gallery in the most important period of its activity, from 1966 to 1979.
There he promoted artistic practices and artists who would essentially mark the national and global art during the next period and inaugurated the curator practice that would become a norm in the sphere of contemporary art presentation. Although Koščević had a high level of theoretical knowledge, the incessant, active curator work and experience of managing the gallery, as well as the direct interaction with artists and audience, provided practical insights for his critical estimations of exhibitions and art phenomena.

Līlā

Author(s): Iva Gjurkin / Language(s): Croatian / Publication Year: 2019

The translator and Indologist Iva Gjurkin wrote a novel Līlā, a story about the growing up of two friends. Gjurkin deftly meanders through their childhood and adolescence, touching upon the important points of maturing in order to speak about finding one's inner peace and content with one's self, through the Indian philosophy of play. The narration is steady and meticulous, without a lack or surplus. It is immersed in the social context of the late 20th century, and still focused on the important matter, with language sharp and precise. Gjurkin's novel is impeccably rounded, permeated by rich and deep Indian philosophy, with the relation of the absolute and the individual, so important for this novel, made available even to less curious readers. Iva Gjurkin graduated in Indian Languages and Literature, and Hungarian Language and Literature at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Zagreb. She published essays and literary works in the magazines Scopus, Književna smotra, and Fantom slobode. She translated theroetical and literary tekst for the magazine Libra libera, and the books The Bourgeois: Between History and Literature by Franco Moretti (2015), What is Iconoclah?, From Realpolitik to Dingpolitik – or How to Make Things Public, and Reset Modernity! by Bruno Latour (2017), and Pamphlets of the Stanford Literary Lab, by Franco Moretti et al.

Marx u digitalnom dobu. Dijalektički materijalizam na vratima tehnologije

Author(s): Katarina Peović / Language(s): Croatian / Publication Year: 2016

Marx in the Digital Age. Dialectical Materialism on the Gates of Technology is a book that questions the understanding of political emancipation with the help of new technologies. It asks how new technologies, especially new media, can contribute to the democratisation of society and emancipation of minority cultures. The book elaborates systematically and epistemologically on the question of emancipatory politics on the Internet, ideology and its reflection onto the new media problems, the changes in the structure and character of work in the age of cognitariat, and the understanding of the concept of »virtuality«. The author uses theoretical tools of many philosophers and theorists, such as Heidegger, Foucault, and Lacan, bridging the gap between classical philosophy and technology. The book is an eloquent elaboration of the contemporary techno–scientific, and politico-economical order, and offers a grounded new media theory from the perspective of the critique of the political economy. Katarina Peović is an assistant professor at the Department of Cultural Studies on the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Rijeka. She obtained her PhD at the Department of Comparative Literature on the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Zagreb. She edited a collection of articles by the American theorist Hakim Bey, Contemporary Autonomous Zones and Other Texts (2003). In the year 2012, she published the book Media and Culture. Media Ideology after the Decentralisation. She published her works in the journals Crisis & Critique, Badiou Studies, Stasis, Književna smotra, Trípodos, and Synthesis Philosophica.

Author(s): Mladen Vuksanović / Language(s): Croatian / Publication Year: 1996

Populacija II

Author(s): Goran Bogunović / Language(s): Croatian / Publication Year: 2019

Populacija II is a collection of hybrid prose pieces. The pieces are a mix of essays, short stores and autobiographical narratives that the author Goran Bogunović merges to write about ordinary events juxtaposing them to eccentric and peculiar ideas. The resulting products are beautifully witty and insightful stories about musical concerts, writing, and posthumanist sentiments. The narration is laid back, full of humorous details, and apparently unimportant observations that are actually an invitation to a deeper questioning of the nature of things. In his investigations of the strange side of the everyday, he is led by Ry Cooder and Kraftwerk, Sebald and Perec, Captain Beefheart and Kruno Levačić. The implicit message that shapes on the edges of the texts is that man is not the measure of all things, and that the world would go on without him. Various cheerful and wistful forms of the posthumanist sentiment permeate these story-essays that range from simpler and comical to more complex and serious, ending with the beautyful and poetical, eponymous »Population II«. Goran Bogunović was born in 1972, in Zagreb. He graduated from the Faculty of Electronical Engineering and Computing, and from the Faculty of Economics and Business. His literary works have been published in Croatian and foreign journals and magazines, and on the radio. He published collections of poetry Here (Matica hrvatska Karlovac, Karlovac 2002), The Area of High Cloudiness (Naklada Mlinarec — Plavić, Zagreb, 2004), and Things Are Getting More Distant (Edicija Pesničenje, Beograd 2013). He also published short story collections Everything Will Be All Right (Naklada Minarec — Plavić, 2003), and Sloths and Other Stories (Kornet, Beograd, 2007). His poems and stories have been translated into various languages. He played guitar in several bands (Tobić Tobić idol mladih, U pol 9 kod Sabe etc.). He is a producer of several bands.

Rod i Balkan

Author(s): Marina Matešić,Svetlana Slapšak / Language(s): Croatian / Publication Year: 2017

Marina Matešić's and Svetlana Slapšak's book Gender and Balkans incorporates two studies on gendering of Balkanism, i.e, on the gendered reading of Balkanism. In the forst part, the authors write about the historical practice of presenting the Balkans by male travelers only to contrast them with the travelogues by women authors of the 18th and 19th centuries, who broke down patriarchal representations of the Balkans. Analysing travelogues by Mary Wortley Montagu, Emily Strangford, Dora d’Istria, Jelena Dimitrijević, Maria Karlova, Paulina Irby and Georgina Mackenzie, Matešić and Slapšak infer that their protofeminist role frequently went hand in hand with their imperialist tendencies. The second study is about the gender situation in the 20th century Balkans. It questions the concept of gender, its appropriation for various arbitrary theses, and its subsequent contamination. The authors also indicate that the notion of mobility is politically marked. Svetlana Slapšak was born in 1948, in Belgrade, where she graduated in classical philology at the Faculty of Philology. Her PhD thesis was on the Vuk Karadžić's dictionary and calcs from Greek language. Slapšak worked at the Institute for Literature and Arts in Belgrade, and from 1986, she has been a professor at the Faculty of Arts in Ljubljana. She has published more than 50 books, and 400 scientific papers in anthropology, gender studies, Balkanology, and feminist criticism. She translated numerous books from latin, old Greek, French and English into Serbian language. For her work she was awarded several literary and peace awards. Marina Matešić was born in Split. She graduated in philosophy, literature and gender studies, and obtained her PhD with the thesis on gender anthropology at the Institutum Studiorum Humanitatis in Ljubljana. She won scholarships as a guest researcher at the Duke University in the USA, and the Humboldt–Universität in Berlin. Her areas of interest are the construction of gender and sexuality, cultural identities and migrations, feminism, Balkanology and postcolonialist criticism.

Splitting: Kako sam tražio Srbe po gradu

Author(s): Damir Pilić / Language(s): Croatian / Publication Year: 2014

In the novel "Splitting", with the ominously ambiguous subtitle "How I Searched for Serbs in the City" (which in another culture, say Czech, could be the title of some Hašek humoresque), a whole world of good neighbours, friends and schoolmates cracks at the seams and collapses. Based on the experience of youth that is maturing in the shade of socialist blocks of Split through games of football, first drunkenness, petty theft, skipping classes and confused, casual sex, Split youth suddenly, still green, learns that "we are not all the same", this prose precisely depicts and demystifies the time in which the Dalmatian metropolis shockingly and forever changed its face. The plot of the novel mostly takes place in one of Split's neighborhoods inhabited by former Yugoslav military (JNA) personnel, mostly serving in the former naval base of Lora, in the period from the New Year 1990 to November 15 of 1991, when the first shells from the ships of the then Yugoslav navy fell on Split. Told from the perspectives of several characters, mostly underage high school students, who show more or less misunderstanding and resistance to the changes that are taking place, this Split story seems more authentic and true than anything written so far about the period. With this novel, journalist and publicist Damir Pilić has established himself as an excellent narrator. Damir Pilić was born in 1969 in Šibenik. He has a master's degree in psychology and a degree in journalism from Zagreb University. He published the scientific monograph Samoubojstva: oproštajna pisma (Suicides: Farewell Letters, 1998); the novels Đavo prvo pojede svoju majku (The Devil Eats His Mother First, 2001), Splitting (2014) and Kao da je sve normalno (As if Everything is Normal, 2018); the journalistic study Marx nije mrtav (Marx is Not Dead, 2016) as well as Tito očima Krleže (Tito Through The Eyes of Krleža, 2020). In co-authorship with Dražen Lalić, he published a book about young Split delinquents Na mladima svijet zastaje (The World Stops for Young People, 2001) and the monograph Torcida: Pogled iznutra (Torcida: An Inside View, 2011), and with Ed Vujević a study on former heroin addicts Dedal na iglama (Daedalus on Needles, 2005). From 1994 to 2001 he worked as a reporter for Feral Tribune, and since 2001 he writes for Slobodna Dalmacija newspapers. He lives in Split.

Topoi umjetnosti performansa: lokalna vizura

Author(s): Suzana Marjanić / Language(s): Croatian / Publication Year: 2017

The book The Topoi of Performance Art: A Local Perspective (Durieux, HS AICA, 2017) by Suzana Marjanić is a follow-up on the research of performance art from a local perspective, which I sought to integrate in the book The Chronotope of Croatian Performance Art: From Traveleri until Today (Bijeli val Association, Institute of Ethnology and Folklore Research, Školska knjiga, 2014), structured as the first review of the history of performance art in Croatia focusing on the performative energies of individual centres (e.g. Zagreb, Varaždin, Osijek, Dubrovnik, Split, Rijeka, Labin, Pula). By changing the chronotopic perspective to that of motif and subject, in the book The Topoi of Performance Art: A Local Perspective I seek to explore performance art within the framework of its dominant topoi ranging from personal (personal mythologies) to political (criticism of political ethno/myths). While relying on the very political dimension, as the motto of the book I have chosen the statement of Igor Grubić on the occasion of his anonymous individual action Black Peristyle (held in the night between January 10 and 11, 1998), which was the first action and provocation supported by Croatia’s civic initiative of the 1990s and an action of exceptional civic courage. (author) “The edition you are holding in your hands is a different book in terms of content and organisation – many of the texts it contains were written and published following the finalisation of the Chronotope, and focus on specific subjects present in performance art or regard the performance works in relation to other genres and contexts outside or on the margins of that which we conventionally label with the term visual art. The author sovereignly tackles the analysis of the intertwining of performance art and experimental and pop music, performing arts, feminist and environmental activism, struggle for animal and human rights, as well as phenomena such as terrorism, refugee crisis, and other key political and social issues of our time.” (Marko Golub, editor)

Autobiografske zabilješke 1924-1942

Author(s): Branko Polić / Language(s): Croatian / Publication Year: 2004

Branko Polić was born on April 24, 1924 in Zagreb. As a Jew, he was forced to spend about ten months of childhood and early youth on various coastal resorts. In 1945, he successfully mastered the classical grammar school and then studied at Sorbonne where he gained a French-language fellowship diploma. Upon returning, in 1948, he continued his studies in English and graduated from the Faculty of Philosophy in Zagreb, "in a record time", in 1950. He was soon admitted to the Radio Radio of Zagreb and thanks to musical affinities became a critic in the music program, then the editor of the music-speaking editorial (1956-1964). After the establishment of the Third Program, he became editor and commentator until his retirement (1985), and thereafter a regular associate.
Branko Polić met and talked with over five hundred reproductive artists, and collected fascinating documentary and music material on many of the travels he took as a music editor. While several thousand of his shows have "gone into ether," dozens of articles, discussions, presentations, essays, criticisms and translations have been scattered across domestic and foreign journals, newspapers, lexicons and collections.
