Za postojanja Jugoslavije bilo je neumjesno, nepristojno, nevažno i politički dubiozno raspravljanje o tome čiji je pisac Ivo Andrić po nacionalnom ključu. Osobito je besmislenost toga pitanja dolazila do izražaja nakon 1961. godine, kada je Ivo Andrić dobio Nobelovu nagradu za književnost. Ipak, čaršija hrvatska i srpska, potiho, ispod glasa, raspravljala je i o tome. Indirektno bi se davalo do znanja da se propituje Andrićeva nacionalnost i po tome u koju je antologiju ili pregled uvršten: u hrvatski ili srpski te iz kojih je takvih knjiga ispušten. Zašto narodi, posebno njihovi to zvani a pogotovo nepozvani reprezentanti, toliko inzistiraju na uvrštavanju umjetnika i njegova djela upravo u njihov okvir? Radi sebe i svojih zasluga, radi slave i mjesta u povijesti koje, jadni, nikad neće izvojevati. A najčešće nisu učinili ništa da bi umjetnika podržali. Štoviše, čak su mnoge umjetnike upravo takvi »njegovi« srodnici onemogućavali i tako ih tjerali od sebe i naroda u čije se ime (krivo)kletno kunu.

Gradovi su kao kaputi Gradovi su kao kaputi. Prije deset godina, negdje krajem listopada, obrela sam se u New Yorku, bez stvari, bez kaputa. Kupila sam kaput, »đubretarac«, doufflecoat. I danas ga nosim. Izlizao se po rubovima, u njemu izgledam kao pedesetogodišnjakinja koja je zaboravila izaći iz puberteta. Pa ipak, kaputa se ne odričem i neću, bilo bi to kao odreći se važne epizode iz vlastite biografije, sve u svemu, priča preduga da bi se ispričala na ovome mjestu. Jedan drugi kaput, kašmirski, u kojem sam izgledala kao što bi prema mišljenju moje mame i trebala izgledati žena koja drži do sebe, obukla sam samo jednom, a onda ga bez imalo žaljenja poklonila jednoj gospođi, iako je koštao tri moje mjesečne plaće.

Keywords: ergativity; active syntactic construction; holistic approach; semantic approach
This paper gives an outline of researches conducted by three authors we found most relevant for description of so-called "active syntactic construction. Since it seems to be universally accepted, we start from Dixon's distinguishing split-S and fluid-S patterns as two basic types of the split systems caused by the semantic nature of the verb. Second part of the paper refers to the Johanna Nichol's research into global typology. Starting from the Klimov's observation that certain features cluster together and are associated with certain types, she has tested correlations among clause alignment, morphological marking type, morphologycal complexity and word order, as well as correlations between these and the other categories. On the big sample of the world languages she follows distribution of these language features with an aim to find some statistically significant pattern which could confirm areal or typological correlations between these features. Correlation chain of head-marking morphology, lower complexity and split-S type of alignment, as well as correlation chain of dependent-marking morphology, higher complexity and fluid-S type of alignment, we found the most stimulating foe the subject of this paper, because it confirms basic typological differences among languages with split-S and fluid-S patterns, Third part of the paper presents Marianne Mithun's work., Although everyone emphasizes semantic bases of these syntactic patterns, only Mithun researches rich variety of semantic distinctions underlying different construction. It leads her to detection of two systems: first one which is based primarily on the lexical aspect of the verb she calls "active/stative" or "active" and the other one which is primarily based on the semantic features of the participants (actor and undergoer) she calls "agent/patient" or "agentive". Finally, in the light of presented works, we give an conclusion mostly regarding differences between split-S and fluid-S types of constructions. Although these constructions show certain formal similarities, they are basically different in terms of what they grammaticalize: Dixon's split-S and Mithun's active patterns are motivated by verbal semantics, as it grammaticalizes lexical categories on verbs, whereas Dixon's fluid-S and Mithun's agentive are motivated by nominal semantic, as it codes nominal semantic roles.

Keywords: The Iconography of Osijek Secession; aestheticization of space; emblems and iconography of Secessionost decorativity: Osijek; Yugoslavia; Wagner; Wagnerian Gesamtkunstwerk; Mihovil Nikolić; Milivoj Dežman Ivanov; Bela Csikos Sesia; Croatian Sezessionsstil
The author traces the shift into The Iconography of Osijek Secession and the aestheticization of space with the emblems and iconography of Secessionist decorativity. Osijek has written a kind of Wagnerian Gesamtkunstwerk (the lyrics of Mihovil Nikolić, short story of Milivoj Dežman Ivanov, painting compositions of Bela Csikos Sesia) – Croatian Sezessionsstil as an intermediary style with the pronounced characteristics of ornamentalism, aestheticism and mannerism (Could we talk about the Baroque mannerism!). The work points to the vision of the Central Europe with the Pannonian– Danube characteristics, i. e. Europe mediated by the Mediterrananean coupled with Nietzsche’s belief in the South.

Keywords: addiction; impulsiveness; coping with stress;
Previous research on the addicts focused primarily on the aspect of reactive coping, while proactive approach was ignored. The aspect of impulsivity also proved to be little examined, due to the variety of research from distinct perspectives. In view of the above, the objective of this thesis was to investigate differences in characteristics of impulsivity and reactive and proactive coping among addicts and men without addiction. The work consists of three chapters. The first focuses on a review of theory and research in the field of addiction, impulsivity, and coping with stress. The second chapter presents methodology of research, and in the third chapter results are presented and discussed. In order to verify the formulated hypotheses, research was carried out on 160 men. The experimental group was 80 addicted men, while the control group was composed of the same number of men without addiction. Three psychological tools have been applied: Impulsivity – IVE Questionnaire, Questionnaire coping – CISS and Scale of Responses to Daily Events – PCI. In order to carry out the statistical analysis STATISTICA was used. The analysis of the results allowed significant differences between groups of subjects studied. Men with drug addiction had a higher intensity of impulsivity, and the use of escape coping strategies, among which are proactive strategies related to search for instrumental and emotional support, and coping by avoiding. Men without addiction compared to those from the experimental group apply more often the performance style of coping and proactive strategies related to preventive and reflexive coping, and strategic planning.

The article examines the nature of the dogmatics found in the poetry written by Gregory of Nazianzus (c. 329-390) through a particular case-study, the poem On the Son. It demonstrates that his lyric composition contains the same doctrine conveyed by the orations authored by him and exposes the manner in which he employs similar terminology in works belonging to both genres. In order to attain its objective my article compares the above-mentioned piece with Orations 29 and 30 that bear the same title.

Preservation of national heritages is founded on the idea that these heritages provide a tangible proof of a shared history, having a capacity of binding populations together and offering them a sense of belonging. The above aspiration has the potential to contribute to the society’s realization of certain social-political goals such national cohesion and patriotism. Cultural heritage may as well be seen as a commercial sector especially in the area of tourism. In Kenya, just as in many other countries across the world, tourism has been considered as a key industry. In Kenya there are protected areas that have achieved very high potential goals in tourism industry with diversity of wildlife and scenery, offering opportunities for game hunting, collecting of trophies, fishing, shooting or wildlife film documentaries. Kenya’s warm ocean beaches, cultural diversity and a range of physical features are attractive to tourists. Governments have promoted tourism industry as a way of bringing employment opportunities, and foreign exchange. Thus, tourism forms part of the expansion of global capitalism. Capitalism produces competition for profit maximization and may lead to selfish exploitation of natural resources, as well as national heritages, which may not consider negative effects on the local community and social environment. Accordingly, this paper examines the extent to which exploitation of national heritage in the context of tourism industry in Kenya has balanced profit motives with sustainability and taken into consideration the element of equity and collective social impact especially on ingenuous lifestyle of local communities.

The paper offers argumentation in favor of a new interpretation of the story “Holliday on the South” by Ivo Andric. The mysterious disappearance of professor Norges (spending holliday with his wife on the seaside) has been explicated by critics as a result of the hero’s elevation and spiritualization after some kind of enthusiastic experience. Opposing to those who thought that what’s happened here could be described as the hero’s pagan merging into nature or climbing into transcendence, the paper brings arguments that he vanishes into nonexistence as a result of a sudden and grandiose opening of his being to the sensual world. It has been concluded that professor Norges hasn’t died for the world to be born as a writer but rather the other way round: as a man who is committed to sensual life he is on the way to become dead as an author.

Keywords: identity; individuals; peoples; determining factors; birth and family; gender; slavery; religious ties; freedom to leave any country; nationality; statelessness; refugees
States and individuals are the essential building blocks of international law. Normally, their identity seems to be solidly established. However, modern international law is widely permeated by the notion of freedom from natural or societal constraints. This notion, embodied for individuals in the concept of human rights, has enabled human beings to overcome most of the traditional ties of dependency and being subjected to dominant social powers. Beyond that, even the natural specificity of a human as determined by birth and gender is being widely challenged. The law has made fargoing concessions to this pressure. Te right to leave one’s own country, including renouncing one’s original nationality, epitomizes the struggle for individual freedom. On the other hand, States generally do not act as oppressive powers but provide comprehensive protection to their nationals. Stateless persons live in a status of precarious insecurity. All efforts should be supported which are aimed at doing away with statelessness or nonrecognition as a human person through the refusal to issue identity documents. Disputes about the collective identity of States also contain two different aspects. On the one hand, disintegrative tendencies manifest themselves through demands for separate statehood by minority groups. Such secession movements, as currently reflected above all in the Spanish province of Catalonia, have no basis in international law except for situations where a group suffers grave structural discrimination (remedial secession). As the common homeland of its citizens, every State also has the right to take care of its sociological identity. Many controversies focus on the distinction between citizens and aliens. This distinction is well rooted in domestic and international law. Changes in that regard cannot be made lightly. At the universal level international law has not given birth to a right to be granted asylum. At the regional level, the European Union has put into force an extremely generous system that provides a right of asylum not only to persons persecuted individually, but also affords “subsidiary protection” to persons in danger of being harmed by military hostilities. It is open to doubt whether the EU institutions have the competence to assign quotas of refugees to individual Member States. Te relevant judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union of 6 September 2017 was hasty and avoided the core issue: the compatibility of such decisions with the guarantee of national identity established under Article 4(2) of the EU Treaty.

Keywords: Ivo Andrić; The Bridge on the Drina; Narrative form;
The paper deals with a complex genre structure of the chronicle-novel „The Bridge on the Drina” which makes the work mosaic and contextual. Genre allusions are initial impulse for intertextual merger with the ancient story: ancient and Christian mythology (myth on world creation and destruction of the created: myth on flood), Biblical legends (on sacrificing, resurrection, and new, authentic creation), and with verbal literature tradition.

Keywords: Croato-Roman language; Istria; lexis of Istro-Roman dialects;
The Roman population of Istria took over from their Croatian neighbours numerous Croatian words which have been part of the lexis of Istro-Roman dialects from times immemorial. Some words adopted from Croatian by the Istro-Roman language have remained unchanged in form to the present day, and as such, together with the oldest layer of Croatized Roman toponyms are proof of very old Croato-Roman language contacts in Istria. These terms predominantly include Croatian agricultural terminology, but many other words as well. Scientific arguments produced by means of the substitutional phonetics method infer that some of these terms could have been taken over from the Croats about one thousand years ago.

Keywords: Publicity; liberty; press; representative government;
Although the French Doctrinaires built up one of the most important political theories of the nineteenth-century, they remain largely unknown in the English-speaking world. This paper examines the Doctrinaires’ theory of publicity by concentrating on François Guizot’s History of the Origins of Representative Government in Europe and Royer-Collard’s parliamentary discourses. The Doctrinaires’ theory of publicity shows how the norms of publicity vary with different social and political circumstances and sheds light on the ways in which state and society can be involved in a complex process of mutual empowerment. Special attention is paid to Guizot’s theory of publicity as the cornerstone of representative government and to the Doc- trinaires’ views on freedom of the press.

Keywords: anodos; crater with red figures; Dionysos; ἐν Λίμναις; Orgamè / Argamum; 4th century BC. J.-C.;
L’ article poursuit l’analyse d’un cratère à figures rouges du IV e siècle av.J.-C., retrouvé dans l’un des tumulus de la nécropole d’Orgamè (T III-90) et présenté pour la première fois en 2015 dans le cadre du colloque d’Ampourias. Il est repris ici enajoutant une nouvelle interprétation où le Dionysos-taureau représenté en anodos est mis en relation avec le paysage du marais qui entoure le site de Capul Dolojman, un lieuoù les Grecs se sont entretenus avec leurs dieux. Le vase, qui nous dévoile la représentation d’un thème dionysiaque identifié pour la première fois, celui de Dionysosἐν Λίμναις , nous offre également la possibilité d’établir une forte liaison entre l’univers decroyances religieuses et l’environnement de ce site. À ce titre, il constitue une précieuse source de nouvelles interprétations concernant l’iconographie dionysiaque diffusée en mer Noire. Nos interprétations s’appuient sur une confrontation systématique avec divers documents trouvés dans d’autres régions du monde grec.

Keywords: authenticity; criterion; fantastic; theory; novel; creation; technique;
We intend to point out the fact that there is no contradiction between authenticity and fantastic at Mircea Eliade but, on the contrary, what he theorizes in his youth essays Oceanography and Fragmentarium represents a personal theory of authenticity-one of the most profound of the epoch and of the theorists of the Criterion group and at the same time a keystone of the whole work, sustaining his literary creation as an element of unity before discovering the theory of disguising the sacred in the profane. There is no contradiction between the authenticity from the novel and the realist writings and the fantastic ones, the fantastic being itself, as the authenticity, a technique of emphasizing the tangible as significance -visible through the grey banality and which cannot be perceived rationally. Understood as an ontological thirst for the knowledge of realness, (Oceanography), the authenticity is like the fantastic a technique of realness and of the tangible through which the author aims at the profoundness and the multiplicity of existence.

Keywords: writer; philosopher; philosophical tale; critic(s); Voltaire;
It is well known that the world of philosophy is rich in famous authors who, throughout the ages, have given in literature many philosophical works. The XVIIIth French century knows many writers among whom Voltaire – a complete writer-philosopher, who has marked the history of the world, with an individual and interesting way of writing and thinking. His philosophy, contained in his philosophical tales (“Candide, or Optimism”, “Zadig, or Destiny”, “Mocromégas”, “The Huron – L’Ingénu”), arouses the interest of the readers and still deserves to be (re)enhancement. That is why we propose an author’s portrait through the opinions of various theoreticians who knew how to criticize and appreciate at the same time the talent of the great French philosopher.

Keywords: Underground; clandestine; youth; subcultures; escapism;
This paper outlines some of the underground cultural practices that were active during the Communist period. Furthermore, it traces how these cultural practices are articulated in Daniel Vighi’s novel – Trilogia Corso, mainly the second book - Podoabe, și pălării, și poncho, și păr lung, și mărgele. Starting from the broad definition of subcultures, this paper presents how these Occidental models had great influence over the youth generation who was fascinated by the freedom of Capitalism. This paper brings to light an important aspect regarding the subversion of underground culture towards the official culture, mainly that of imitation and adaptation of Western cultural models, an aspect that certifies the theoretical premises when asserting that subcultures coming from former socialist states represent hybrid forms of subcultures.
