Hipnoza i kritika: filmska muzika za Balkan

Author(s): Stathis Gourgouris,Dušan Đorđević-Mileusnić / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

Potreba za mišljenjem o Balkanu danas nas upućuje s one strane radikalne neposrednosti događaja. Ovo kažem, iako se može učiniti da je to protivno rezonu, zato što se, čak i u ovim neuobičajenim prilikama brzog razumevanja veličine događaja, ne{to uvek oseća kao nedokučivo, tajanstveno, neomeđeno. Možda zato što duboko promišljanje, na kraju, ne može da izdrži paljbu stalne neposrednosti – ili, da kažem to drugačije, zato što misao o istoriji-koja-je-u-dubini ne može da izdrži paljbu istorije-koja-se-događa – očigledan neuspeh konceptualizovanja Balkana s one strane njegovih elementarnih istorijskih/kulturnih/političkih granica postaje sve više akutan.

Posvećeno Gustavu Gliku

Author(s): Walter Benjamin / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

Stari bakrorezi imaju glasnika, što pritrčava vičući, razbarušene kose, mašući u rukama listom, koji pun rata i kuge, ubilačkog pokliča i bola, požara i poplava širi na sve strane »najnovije vesti«. Novine u tom smislu i značenju koje ta reč ima kod Šekspira, jesu Baklja. Pune izdaje, zemljotresa, otrova i požara iz mundusa intelligibilisa. Mržnja kojom progone nepregledno gamižući novinarski soj, pre je vitalna nego moralna, slična onoj sa kakvom se praotac okomio na naraštaj izopačenih kepeca-obešenjaka proizašao iz njegovog semena.

The Portrait of the City in Wim Wenders’s “Lisbon Story”

Author(s): Sonia Front / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The paper addresses the depiction of the city in Wim Wenders’s film “Lisbon Story” (1994). The film meditates on the “death of the cinema” resulting from the commercialization of the image and globalization of culture, accompanied by the destruction of space. Wenders protests against the postmodernist consumption and homogeneity of space by presenting Lisbon as a city arrested in time, beyond the impact of corporate culture. Expressing his distrust of images, he creates a heterogeneous portrait of the city, superimposing soundscape over the landscape, whereby sounds, particularly music, encode the emotional attitude to the city, experienced in a kinesthetic manner.

Amidst the Wonders of the City: Countenances of Moscow in Barbara Włodarczyk’s “Wide Tracks”

Author(s): Monika Kowalczyk-Piaseczna / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The article analyses the various countenances of Moscow which have been presented by Barbara Włodarczyk in the cycle of television reportages “Wide Tracks”. The text focuses on illustrating the specific features of a film report that allow its author to present the wondrous picture of the Russian capital emerging from the particular fragments of the discussed reportages. Moreover, as a result of juxtaposition of the reports from that part of the city, which overwhelms one with its richness and splendour, with the accounts from these corners of Moscow in which the continuous struggle for survival takes place, the article examines the internal contradictions which may be observed within the depicted urban space. The analysed cycle also exposes the series of political conflicts which undermine the immaculate image of Moscow as a wondrous city, presented by some of the characters of the discussed film pictures, and simultaneously, it allows one to discover some new, less known countenances of the metropolis.

Between Architecture and Cultural Studies: Reflections on the Constitution and Devaluation of Urban Public Spaces

Author(s): Andrzej Bełdowski,Tomasz Burzyński / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

This interdisciplinary paper aims to outline the role of architecture in the societal construction and devaluation of civic public spaces from the perspectives of theoretical architecture, cultural studies, and theory of culture. When perceived in the context of the agency/structure duality, urban public spaces could be seen as societal constructs whose character and identity can be traced to the holistic organisation of architectural forms within a given locale. At the same time, the deflation in the quality of public spaces may be explained by making references to mutually reinforcing processes of spatial commodification and symbolic violence which are both exercised by implanting pure, self-explicable architectural forms into well-entrenched urban spaces.

„Bogurodzica” na współczesnej polskiej scenie muzycznej. Kilka słów o recepcji

Author(s): Adam Regiewicz / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

“Bogurodzica” has for centuries constituted one of the pillars of Polish culture. As the oldest religious song written in Polish, it designates avenues of interpretation of the medieval aesthetics both in literature and musicology. Moreover, its influence on society and the emergence of national identity cannot be overstated. Due to this monumental, sacrosanct nature, „Bogurodzica” has become an exhibit in the museum of medieval imagery. However, a song, even one which remains a symbol of the past, is always subject to revision during its performance. Thanks to its musical interpretation and reinterpretation, „Bogurodzica” can be read anew and made relevant, while those interpretations reveal hidden discourses. The following article aims at analyzing selected contemporary performances of the literary and musical relic, ruminating on its role in contemporary popular culture and the perception of the Middle Ages suggested by those performances.

Отново за датировката и произхода на пафтите — corrigenda et addenda (По повод колекция в Дуловския музей от с. Окорш, Силистренско)

Author(s): Georgi Atanasov,Kaloyan Dimov / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

A collection of late medieval and early Renaissance finds stored in the museum of Dulovo; the items were found south-east of Okorsh village, Dulovo municipality, Silistra region. Out there, in the area called „Beiska mahala”, a big Ottoman-time settlement was found, which is possibly the original source of the finds, which include 36 pafta clasps discussed in the article.According to the numismatic information and the dating of the other finds, the settlement can be dated within the 17th and the first half of the 19th century. According to an Ottoman census of 1676, a village called Abdarrahman seems to be listed in Silistra kaza.The pafta clasps from the collection of Dulovo museum can be divided into 5 types, with their own subtypes. The first type includes small round, cup-shaped pafta clasps, without ornament. Most of the clasps have granular trimming on the periphery, always with a small sharp widening. There are no analogues from closed archaeological sites dated within the period from the 10th to the 14th century. Surely, the dated finds from Niculitel and Silistra are dated within the 17th — the 18th centuries. The second type are round, cup-shaped pafta clasps with a stylized rosette in the center. This type has three subtypes. Most of the clasps are with granular trimming on the periphery, with a small sharp widening. Surely, dated finds from necropolis in Romania are from the period of the 17th—18th centuries. The third type are cup-shaped pafta clasps with radial ornament. This type is a stylized variant of the pafta clasps with a rosette in the center. There are no finds dated within the 10th—16th centuries. The finds from the graves around the church in Arnautkoy village (Poroishte, Bulgaria) are dated within the 17th—18th centuries. The fourth type are shield-like paftas, divided in five subtypes. According to the analogies from surely dated archaeological sites — the church in Arnautkoy and Corinth, we can assume that this type is dated within 18th century. Subtype IVa is dated later — by the first half of the 19th century. The fifth type are leaf-shaped pafta clasps. According to their form, we can add to this type two belt applications with a shape of pafta clasps. According to some analogies from Isakcha, we can date them back in 18th—19th century. According to the surely dated finds, we came to the conclusion that until 16th century the pafta clasps are unknown type of jewelry. The first appearance of pafta clasps on the Balkans and in Bulgaria can be dated by the beginning or the mid of the 17th century. One way for their appearance in this area could be transfer of traditions from Asia Minor, due to relocation of hundreds of Alevi (Shiite) villages in 16th—17th centuries in Eastern Bulgaria.

Променената идентичност в поезията на Адам Мицкевич. Или от Адам и Ева до Кончита Вурст

Author(s): Panayot Karagyozov / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The essay surveys the different types of identity transformations of the protagonists in the literary works of the Polish Romantic poet Adam Mickiewicz in the context of the physical and spiritual transformations of the humankind from Adam and Eve until the 21st century. The supernatural changes the Mickiewicz’s heroes undergo are based on the Romantic postulate that the rational mind cannot always provide an explanation for the things happening in our lives. Through the multiple identity transformations in his works, Mickiewicz underlines the strong connection between the worlds of the living and the dead and instructs his reading audience on how to deal with current social, ethical and nationally significant issues.

Author(s): Andreea Catalina Popa,Gabriela Voloacă,Teodora Ungureanu / Language(s): Romanian Publication Year: 0

Cula is a semi-fortified construction, characteristic of the 18th-19th century. Such construction can also be found in other countries, such as Serbia, Bulgaria, Albania, Greece, and Northern Macedonia. In Romania, there are several dozen calls, with different levels of conservation. Until now, these constructions have not been exploited for tourism, most being left to decay. Establishing cultural routes that include them could represent a solution to save these constructions.
