Rural Sociology in the Totalitarian Period

Rurální sociologie v období totality. Příspěvek do diskuse

Author(s): Zdeněk Pátek / Language(s): Czech / Issue: 05/2004

After the communist coup in 1948 rural sociology in Czechoslovakia was regarded by the new totalitarian regime as an element of bourgeois ideology which had to be destroyed. Empirical research in agriculture and the countryside was deemed unnecessary and incapable of providing any new and useful knowledge. But despite being rejected by party ideologists, the Czech rural sociology survived and in 1960s partook of the general revival of Czech sociology and other social sciences. The most important contributions to its new development came, respectively, from the activities of leading Czech rural sociologist Jan Tauber, from the Institute of social and political sciences directed by Pavel Machonin, and from a group of teachers from agricultural universities in Prague and Brno. In August 1968 the progress of rural sociology was interrupted by the invasion of Warsaw Pact Troops, and a considerable number of sociologists were thereafter prevented from working in their field. Although even during this period some limited activities in the domain of rural sociology continued, they were distorted by dogmatism and interference from the state and Communist Party leaders. Despite this a new generation of rural sociologists nonetheless managed to emerge. The democratic revolution in November 1989 established new conditions that enabled the resumption of activities in the field of rural sociology, allowing them to evolve freely.

Of Martyrs ‘Genuine’ and ‘Spurious’: Concerning Zdeněk R. Nešpor’s Review

O mučednicich „pravych“ a „nepravych“: K recenzi Zdeňka R. Nešpora

Author(s): Martin Jindra / Language(s): Czech / Issue: 03-04/2008

A scholar of church history, Martin Jindra, takes issue with Zdeněk R. Nešpor’s review of his Stražci lidskosti: Dvanact přiběhů přislušniků Československe cirkve (husitske) vězněnych po unoru 1948 (Prague, 2007), ‘Nepravi mučednici proticirkevniho boje’ (Spurious Martyrs in the Fight against the Churches), published in Soudobe dějiny, vol. 15 (2009), no. 1, pp. 164–67. The focus of the dispute is the extent of the Czechoslovak (Hussite) Church’s conformity with the Communist regime, and also how Jindra discusses it in his book. Jindra admits that of all the big confessions in the country the Czechoslovak (Hussite) Church was the most conformist towards the regime, but he rejects Nešpor’s reproach that he was acting as their apologist. He calls the review biased, and demonstrates that a number of members of the Czechoslovak (Hussite) Church were victims of Nazi and Communist repression. One of his aims in the book was to recall the lives of twelve of those people.

MARIONETIST JOSEF SIMEK AND "HIS" PUPPETS IN THE COLLECTION OF MORAVIAN MUSEUM IN BRNO

MARIONETÁŘ JOSEF ŠIMEK A „JEHO“ LOUTKY VE SBÍRCE MORAVSKÉHO ZEMSKÉHO MUZEA V BRNĚ

Author(s): Jaroslav Blecha / Language(s): Czech / Issue: 3/2012

Keywords: Josef Šimek; Czech marionette theatre; puppeteering families; puppets, puppet carvers

Josef Šimek represents the typical Czech marionettist of the late 19th and early 20th century. A range of valuable authentic materials are preserved among his effects; the most precious of these include a set of 24 marionette figures. The article elucidates Šimek’s work and traces the general advance in his knowledge, from a study of his notes on “gigs” in two tour diaries written in 1897-1914 and 1919-1937. The author takes a closer look at the above-mentioned collection of marionettes, he subjects it to a more detailed analysis from the standpoint of the typology of characters and the origins of individual figures. He poses the question of the degree of authenticity of this collection and examines its testimonial value regarding the form of Šimek’s theatre. Based on confrontation of the authentic material with the accompanying documentation and the memoirs, he assesses the trustworthiness of the information available hitherto. His conclusion is that the preserved set of puppets evidently does not correspond to the authentic state of equipment of Josef Šimek’s theatre.

Lines of the conflict in “The Lute of the Mountains” and the problem of misinterpretation of Fishta’s patriotic attitude in it

Linjat e konfliktit në poemën “Lahuta e Malcis” dhe problemi i keqinterpretimit të qëndrimit atdhetar të Fishtës në të

Keywords: Lines of the conflict ; The Lute of the Mountains; problem of misinterpretation ; Fishta’s patriotic attitude ; Fishta; Albania; Albanian Literature

This work is built as a discussion about the evaluation on the book Historia e letërsisë shqiptare (History of Albanian Literature), an edition of the Academy of Sciences of People’s Socialist Republic of Albania, in which the poem Lahuta e malcis (Lute of the mountains) of Gjergj Fishta is appraised as anti-Slavic propaganda. Contrary to such thesis there is still no argumentum in this discussion even though this thesis id not founded in the text of the poem. The official policy of the Albanian state at the beginning of the 80s was no more pro-Slavic, but such of an evaluation aimed at the undoing of Fishta’s personality and at the same time the desecration of the poems values, which even censured, still came about as a ghost of a myth. Leaving aside the historical analysis of real events that are wreathed with fictional episodes of the subject, we are concentrated on the analysis of aesthetical aspects that illuminate the attitude of the poem towards chauvinism. Through this interpretive act we hope to have argued that to chauvinism of neighboring Montenegrins, the poem does not respond in any line or stream of consciousness that can transmit chauvinistic pathos by the Albanian counterpart. On the contrary, the objective spirit and upper ethics of the poet makes even the defending war virtues poeticized and also the heroism of Montenegrins when this population does have high values of freedom and fights for defending itself from ottoman invaders. But, when they make invading warfare against Albanians, the poet discovers decisively their chauvinism and places them in the same plan of hatred and negative evaluation as the ottomans. Our thesis argument has been based on a number of illustrations taken from the text.

In this study is challenged Marash Ardian article titled "Behold the five stages of Albanian literature on Communism". Author, AM, driven by the ambition to create a scheme "own" as "methodological key" to develo[e a new text of the history of Albanian literature, Albanian literature of the "46-year period", divides into five phases: the first phase, or "Phase Titoites" (1945-1948); The second phase, or "Stalinist phase" (1949-1961); The third phase, or "Phase Maoist" (1962-1977); The fourth phase, or "Phase Enverist" (1977-1984) and fifth phase, or "Phase Ramiziste" (1985 to 1991). A.Marashi conclusions given are formulated with the same methodology that was used at the time of monism to draft official literary texts, which rely on coarse sociologjizmit method, which, as is known, do not ignore the core specification and aesthetic art, fiction and considered it a product that depends only conditioned by political power.

Arbëria's Benda in the later Middle Ages

Benda e Arbrit në Mesjetën e Vonë

Author(s): Pëllumb Xhufi / Language(s): Albanian / Issue: 01-02/2010

Keywords: Arbëria's Benda ; Middle Ages; Albania; Albanian History

At the end of the 12th century, more evidently, but in fact since the 11th century, the byzantine sources in the beginning, followed a little later by the Papal and Slavic ones, start distinguishing a central territory of the medieval Albania, which they called Arber. (greek. Ἄλβανον, lat. Albanum, slav. Рабьнь). Due to its geographic position, close to Durrës and along the Egnatian Way, Arbër has been in the center of the medieval history, not only of Albania, but of the history of Adriatic - Balkans, as well. That is why famous scientists of Balkanology and Albanology have baptized Arbër as the "nucleus" of medieval Albania. In this territory, around the end of the 12th century, the Principality of Arbër, the first formation of an Albanian medieval government was created. During the 14th century, the land of Arbër, more or less integrated the lordship (county) of Topiaj, and in the 15th century it was unified with the stable center of the State of Skanderbeg. Even on 1621, one and a half century after Skanderbeg's death, a well-known habitant of these lands, Pjetër Gudi from Gurabardh, testifies that the territories once belonging to Arbër, were now called "the lands of Skanderbeg" by his compatriots. Thus were considered the cities of Mat, Benda, Kurbin, Tamadhë and Çermenikë, which are part of the highlands behind the cities of Krujë and Elbasan. This study aimes to throw light on one of the regions that belonged to Arbër, Benda. In that effort, the study tries to define the geographical position of Benda, as related to neighbor territories. It begins from Tomadhë, precisely identified in Martanesh, mentioned with that name in late sources. The author presents a new concept concerning the geographical location of the lands of Kunavi and Stefani as well. This concept confronts the locations given by authors like Sufflay or Stadtmüller. On the other hand, based on the unused documents and on a reconsideration of the historic documentation, it is proved that Benda is the place of origin of the famous family Shkurra. On an earlier study, the author has mentioned the thesis that the Princes of Arbër during the 12 th and 13th century, Dhimiitër, Gjon, Progon belonged to this family. The fact that, even during the 16th - 18th century, Benda remains a center for the political and military development, regarding to the resistance against the ottoman occupation, is another element brought by the author.

THE FUNCTION OF BISHOP STANISLAV ZELA IN THE ARCHDIOCESAN HERITAGE COUNCIL

PŮSOBENÍ BISKUPA STANISLAVA ZELY V ARCIDIECÉZNÍ PAMÁTKOVÉ RADĚ

Author(s): Jitka Jonová / Language(s): / Issue: 2/2015

Keywords: Archdiocesan Heritage Council; Stanislav Zela; Leopold Prečan; Care of Monuments

The Archdiocesan Heritage Council in Olomouc, whose task was to ensure the protection of existing monuments and supervise their suitable renovation, was established in 1914. It was also responsible for the construction of new buildings with a focus on the quality of religious art. Auxiliary Bishop Zela was appointed chairman of the Archdiocesan Heritage Council in 1941. Zela was only chairman for three years but managed to make it functional. Since some members of the Archdiocesan Heritage Council had died, Zela appointed new members and called a meeting of the Council which had not met for a long time. He reminded the committee of the tasks of the Council and the consolidated Council managed to carry out its duties successfully despite wartime adversity.

Woman and the "rupture". Notes on the erotic originality in Jules Laforgue's Les Complaintes.

La femme et la « rupture ». Notes sur l’originalité érotique dans Les Complaintes de Jules Laforgue

Author(s): Alberto Russo / Language(s): French / Issue: 15/2015

La « rupture » entre les premiers poèmes de Laforgue et Les Complaintes se réalise à travers un pluristylisme euphorique. La force érotique du langage (au sens freudien) se manifeste par une fuite métonymique de styles, tons et registres, où le sujet peut rétablir une nouvelle relation avec la femme. The « break » between Laforgue’s early poems and The Complaints is carried out by an euphoric plurality of styles. Erotic power of language (in the freudian sense)appears in a metonymical passing of styles, tones and registers, where the subject can restore a new relation with woman.

Është fakt i njohur se studimet në lidhje me aspektet muzikore të trashëgimisë shpirtërore të popullit shqiptar i përkasin një periudhe relativisht të vonë. Mbledhësit e parë të kësaj trashëgimie, në fund të shek. XIX dhe fillim të shek. XX, kishin një orientim kryesisht folkloristik, dmth., me interes të përqendruar drejt teksteve.

Phenomena in lexis of publicist discourse in Albania

Dukuri në leksikun e ligjërimit publicistik në Shqipëri

Author(s): Jani Thomai / Language(s): Albanian / Issue: 46/2016

Keywords: lexis; Albanian language;

As is known, publicist discourse is very extensive in problematic, diversified in genres and types, and most importantly, very dynamic in development and open to movement in the system of expressive means, therefore it requires permanent observation and periodic studies. Its borders are open, journalistic and audio-visual genres and types numerous, authors of publicist production are countless and diverse according to the country of origin, age, educational and cultural background, the level of proficiency in standard Albanian language, social strata, skills and experience, beliefs and tastes etc. In present time journalism the vocabulary has also expanded and is mixed in many directions while becoming narrowed and specialized in other directions. The scope of news, information, press conferences, speeches, statements, discussions and debates, interviews, etc., has expanded, in which, based on characteristics of this field, the vocabulary is somewhat limited and semantically in horizontal plane. The life of Albanian society today is dominated by politics; therefore political discourse occupies the leading place in journalism. The influence in the system of publicist types made by the speeches and press conferences of political and state dignitaries, the statements, discussions and debates in Parliament and in television shows, the interviews, etc., as well as relatively new columns, especially with some lexical novelties, mainly terms, but also recently borrowed words, both in new areas or in less developed areas previously in our country, reinforce the bookish hue of this discourse. Generally it is noticed that to the modern developments are not corresponding to the space of cultivated journalistic gender system, nor to the progress in quality, and especially not, the degree of wealth, lexicalsemantic adaptation and genuine crystallization of stylistic means of expression. Comparing a study, published in 1984, we can say that today in publicist types of writings there are significant changes in general features, linguistic forms, and expressive means. Types of literary journalism today are almost absent or very rare. Particularly in information and analytical writings there are contrasting movements: the expansion of lexis in press language in these texts is done by resource tools like word formation and borrowing (unlimited terminology of foreign words). Today in Albania, the number of press institutions and audio-visual channels, both central and local, has greatly increased. Presently are circulating 18 socio-political daily newspapers, seven daily sports newspapers, 36 monthly newspapers, 69 quarterly, 169 annual, 650 online (except magazines) 24; 5 national audio-visual media and 79 local and regional audio-visual media in all cities of the country transmitting numerous broadcast programs in 24 hours. In large cities there are several audiovisual media. Only in Tirana region operate 26 audio-visual operators. Expansion of journalistic activity and the press freedom have often led to the decrease of the linguistic expression levels, to many violations of linguistic norms, and to its neglect. Present day publicist discourse has weaknesses in all aspects of linguistic expressive means, but the most disturbing flaw is the widespread poverty of linguistic expression, in the lexis and semantic, as well as stylistic and discursive ground. Linguistic poverty in journalistic discourse is noticed in two axes: in the horizontal axis or plane - words, phrases, idioms, structure of syntax, and in the vertical axis - semantics and stylistics, which is noticed by the lack of especially high expressive means, such as: the class qualifying words (adjectives of names with this meaning), figurative meanings, phraseology etc.

L’article offre une lecture du poème Les Regards, les Faits et Senhal, l’une des œuvres les plus expérimentales de la production du poète italien Andrea Zanzotto. À partir d’une analyse des lieux liminaires du texte, on essaiera de saisir le statut du poème dans la perspective de l’énonciation subjective. La lecture se confrontera alors avec le haut degré de conflictualité et de pluralisme du poème en essayant d’en donner une explication par rapport à la présence inévitable du trauma et de la mort. This article gives an interpretation of the long poem Gli Sguardi i fatti e Senhal (Gazes, Facts and Senhal), that is one of the most experimental works of the Italian poet Andrea Zanzotto. Starting from an analysis of the the text boundaries, we will try to understand the foundations of the poem in the perspective of subjective enunciation. The interpretation will be organized by the analysis of the pluralism and the stylistic conflicts and of the unavoidable presence in the text of trauma and death.

In the historiography of communist Yugoslavia, the issue of the activities of the civil and military authorities of the Independent State of Croatia in today’s Bosnia and Herzegovina during the Second World War was partially explored because this topic could not be freely researched or written about. In the mentioned period, the emphasis was on researching the partisan movement, while other participants in the war were given much less attention. Those who wrote on this topic paid little or almost no attention to the circumstances in which the civil and military authorities of the Independent State of Croatia in Bosnia and Herzegovina were established and operated, as well as in the Bihać-Cazin region. There is no historiographical research on the main features of the civilian and military authorities of the Independent State of Croatia in the Great Parish of Krbava and Psat with its seat in Bihać. Based on the original archival material, the paper presents the structure and activities of civilian and military authorities of the Independent State of Croatia in the Great Parish of Krbava and Psat with its seat in Bihać in the period 1941-1942. Namely, after it was founded on June 16th, 1941, the municipal, county and parish authorities of the Independent State of Croatia were established in the parish, while the organization of military power was reflected in the establishment and operation of Home Guard and Ustasha units, and the armed forces.

Mnogi događaji koje doživimo u mladim danima ostavljaju u nama duboke tragove i teško se brišu iz našeg sjećanja. Tako i ovi događaji, koje namjeravam iznijeti, duboko su se usadili u moje pamćenje i ostaju nezaboravni. Sve što sam proživljavala u ranoj mladosti, proživljavala sam u okrilju svoje obitelji u kojoj sam naučila osnovne pojmove o Bogu i načelima pravoga kršćanskog i ljudskog života i ponašanja. Rodila sam se u Bosanskom Grahovu, u selu Obljaj, od oca Mije Sarića Loganovića i mame Stane rođene Vulić. Otac Mijo, kovač, bio je poznat u cijeloj grahovskoj okolici kao pošten čovjek, vjerni katolik, radišan i vrstan u svojoj struci. Majka Stana bila je kućanica i bavila se odgojem svoje devetero djece: Janja, Bojica, Stana (Naca), Ivan, Marko, Marija, Kata (časna sestra Celina), Nikola i Marija Julka. Nažalost, zbog dječjihbolesti za koje tada nije bilo lijeka, u nejakoj dobi umrli su Marija, Nikola i Marija Julka. Janja i Bojica, čim su postale punoljetne, izabrale su brak i napustile rodnu kuću. Janja se udala za Nikolu Špiranovića 1936. godine, a Bojica 1940. za Josipa Karduma, tadašnjeg žandara. Obitelj Mije Sarića bila je dobrostojeća, a osim njegove dobre zarade, obitelj je posjedovala mnogo zemlje i blaga o čemu se najviše brinuo Mijin brat Niko (Joško - Ćić). Niko se nikada nije odijelio od Mije. Ostao je udovac nakon dva braka, obje žene i nejaka djeca umrli su od tuberkuloze. A velika žalost je zadesila cijelu Mijinu obitelj kada je Niko izgubio i sina Andriju, mladića od 18 godina. Jednoga zimskog dana Andrija je pao s mladoga konja na led i ozlijedio pluća. O tome nije htio ni s kim prozboriti, smatrajući to nevažnim. Nažalost, bilo je ozbiljno i Andrija se razbolio od tuberkuloze. Stric Niko ostao je zauvijek s bratom, a voljela su ga i poštivala bratova žena i djeca.

The National Chamber Choir (artistic director and main conductor Ilona Stepan) takes an important place in the contemporary musical heritage of the Republic of Moldova. The present article is dedicated to the history and evolution of the National Chamber Choir during the first stage of its development. This unique artistic group appeared in 2002 as the first private musical group in the Republic of Moldova thanks to the initiative and sponsorship of the Union Fenosa Cultural Foundation. Some important aspects of the National Chamber Choir’s evolution are studied. Among them: crystallization of the individual style as a chamber choir; recognition on the international level related to the participation at the prestigious European choir competitions; the identification of the major stylistic directions of the choir’s repertoire; the establishment of the genre palette of its repertoire: from choral miniature to large-scaled vocal-symphonic works like passion, requiem, oratorio, cantata. The choir’s programs are presented in various artistic staffs: a cappella, with piano, organ, orchestra, soloists, etc. The Choir repertoire tends to extend the limits of music of academic tradition, applying to the phenomenon of non-academic music culture: habanera, carrols, spirituals, tango, jazz, etc. Thanks to the National Chamber Choir history, a special inclination towards the Spanish repertoire, and, in a broader sense, the theme of Hispanicity, is identified, representing a unique feature of this choral group.
