Między mimikrą a rebelią. Pejzaż (post)kolonialny regionalnej literatury

Author(s): Małgorzata Mikołajczak / Language(s): Polish Issue: 5/2015

Mikołajczak looks at postwar regional Polish literature – especially the literature that originates in the so-called recovered territories – from a postcolonial perspective. Her point of departure consists of two related assumptions: first, that the relationship between regional works and the historically variable political and cultural centre plays a key role in the mechanisms of these works’ creation; and second, that the development of these works is steered by a tension between regionalism’s tendency towards the universal on the one hand and its tendency towards differentiation on the other hand. These opposing tendencies also inform the positions of ‘mimicry’ and ‘rebellion’ that recur in different stages of the development of regional literature, representing a compensation for the weakness that results from the conditioning of centre and periphery.

This article traces the development of urban activism centered in the area of inner Nicosia (focusing on its southern part) in the last two decades. It provides an overviewof the main alternative social and cultural practices in the city through a discussionof meaning attribution by various different groups co-existing, sometimesconverging and sometimes diverging but expressing directly and indirectly in variousways and forms their dissent from the mainstream ideologies. The focus is on specificinitiatives and small social movements contesting existing institutions, structures andprocesses such as the division of the city (and country), consumerist lifestyles etc andengaging in semiotic struggles over the definition and interpretation of the city andthe right to it. It thus offers an account of the development of an open communityrooted in inner Nicosia formed on the basis on social networks and cultural traits asthese have been constituted through specific radical politics and ideational frames.The analysis stands at the intersection of social movements, urban studies and communicationwhile the primary methodology is ethnography. It adopts a historicalperspective examining the key processes under way at the turn of the Century inthe city of Nicosia and then discusses explicitly two particular forms of cultural andsocial contestation that have emerged in 2009-2010 and 2011-2012 arguing that theirunderstanding must be based on the genealogy of events and dynamics that precededtheir emergence.

OSMANLI DEVLETİ’NDE FAİZ ve TEFECİLİĞE KARŞI ZİRÂÎ KREDİ TEŞKİLATLARI

Author(s): Ferhat Güngör / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 31/2016

Until the second half of the 19th century, no state established agricultural credit organizations existed in the Ottoman Empire to serve the credit needs of farmers. Farmers, in turn, took out high interest rate loans from loan sharks and moneylenders. When farmers were unable pay their loans, they were thrown into an inextricable situation of interest being added onto the interest of the debt. Midhat Pasha, during his governorship of Nis, established “Memleket Sandıkları” (Country Funds) on November 20th 1863, the first agricultural credit organization in Şehirköy-Pirot, in order to rescue farmers from the grip of loan sharks and moneylenders as well as strengthen ties with Ottoman subjects. Over time, establishments with the same objectives, such as “Ziraat Sandıkları” (Agriculture Funds) and “Menâfi Sandıkları” (Benefit Funds) appeared, followed by the 1888 establishment of the modern organization “Ziraat Bankası” (The Agricultural Bank), which has maintained its presence. This paper explores in depth the historical development of the concept of loans as well as interesting events pertaining to the farmer exploiting moneylenders and loan sharks in the Ottoman State who were against the implementation of credit organizations.

Author(s): Blagovesta Ivanova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 4/2016

Идентичност и миграция 2. Американският случай

Идентичност и миграция 2. Американският случай

Author(s): Ekaterina Anastasova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2017

The article continues the series of observations related to the problem of identity construction among the East European emigrants/immigrants “in the West” (Europe and USA) before and after the “democratic changes”. It presents the second case (the first one was published in the first volume of the thematic issue “The Road I-II” of the journal “Bulgarian Ethnology“) which analyses materials from the United States. The study examines an example of “successful” immigrant from Bulgaria in USA who constructs his identity and a number of aspects of his life on the basis of the Russian national narrative. If the Estonian case demonstrates an identity constructed on the basis of national narrative founded on folklore (pseudo-folklore) sources, the present case shows a national narrative constructed on the basis of the Russian history, classic literature, art and so on, i.e. based on the Russian “high culture”. The study is based on long-term observations and particular fieldwork conducted in 2015-2016 in New York and Long Island, USA.

Author(s): Yoanna Planchette / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 18/2019

The aim of this paper is to amplify the iconographical specifics of a particularly rare topic from the Byzantine art: The Old testament Teophany of Christ in Glory, according to prophet Ezekiel.

We will focus on the eschatological meaning of the Bachkovo mural painting, visually connected to other similar topics from the ossuary, by emphasising the association of text, specific liturgical offices and sepulchral iconography.

Прилог кон творештвото на самоковските маjстори во Кочанско

Author(s): Ilinka Atanasova / Language(s): Macedonian Issue: 18/2019

Great number of sacral objects from the Renaissance period in the northeastern part of Rеpublic of North Macedonia contain work from the opus of the Samokov zographs. Work of one of the representatives of the second generation of Samokov masters, Dimitar Hristov, was recognized in the objects from the renaissance period in Kochani according to its stylistic features. The throne icons in the churches in the villages of Orizari, Zrnovci, and Spanchevo, as well as in the church of St. Georgi in Kochani are being interpreted as his work. His successors mark the second half of the XIX century sacred creation. We will generally focus on the work of the son Zakhariy Dospevski Samokovets. Several works in the churches in the villages of Beli, Nivichani and Pantelej in the area of Kochani, dated from 1872 to 1876, are marked with his signature. The little church “The Birth of the Mother of God” in the monastery St. Pantelejmon in the village of Pantelej is com-pletely his accomplishment. Special emphasis will be put on the composition of The Last Judgment and scenes from the aerial pay toll located in the eastern wall of the open narthex in the Church of the Birth of the Mother of God, with a parallel of the church rituals of one hand, and the preserved tradition and folk beliefs and practices associated with death on the other hand.

Афродита од Виничко кале

Author(s): Julijana Ivanova / Language(s): Macedonian Issue: 18/2019

The last researches conducted at the archaeological site Vinicko Kale in Vinica, Republic of Macedonia, in 2017, in the object Water tank from the early antique period, gave extraordinary results especially considering the movable archeological material which enables us new knowledge about this very little known period of the Kale. The object Water tank is uncovered and fully cleared and with that we gained the basic information about this construction which, after its functioning stopped, was a place where a lot of waste material was thrown and, luckily for us, was preserved till today. Among the numerous ceramic and metal materials, at the bottom of the tank, the marble sculpture broken in two of Aphrodite holding Eros in her hands was discovered. This sculpture is the only one of this kind discovered in the Republic of Macedonia and it might be a unique sample made by skillful hands of craftsman from a superb sculptural center.
