„Нашият труд е песента“

(народната музика в българските радиопрограми от първите години на социализма и нейната „мека власт“)

Author(s): Dimov Ventsislav / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 3/2018

peoples music, state socialism, people's democracy, Bulgarian radio, soft powerThe article describes the main power concepts and practices, related to music in Bulgarian radio during the first years of socialist Bulgaria – the Fatherland front period (1944-1947), when the authorities start to take possession of state radio, under the guise of “people’s democracy”; and the totalitarian period (1948-1956) – a period of “classical Stalinism”, a time of the completed control of radio and media music by the communist power. The focus is on the so called folk music in radio, which turns out to be one of the main conduits of “soft power” in the first years of Bulgarian national socialism. Its presence in the narratives of communist power, its place in radio programs, its main figures and formats, its power uses as “music for the people” and some discourses as “correct” and “incorrect” music, according to authorities, are examined.

„ОН В РИМЕ БЫЛ БЫ БРУТ...”

Author(s): Wiera Biełousowa / Language(s): Russian Issue: 1/2003

The attempt to hermeneutically analyze Nikolay Gogol’s Viy has been taken up in the article. In the capacity of interpreting, the allusion to the image of the philosopher P. Chadayev was used. It enabled to read the story as an imaginary dialogue - a duel both with Chadayev and philosophy as a form of artistic works.

„Опит за летене“: гравитация и възторженост

Author(s): Vassil Penchev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 3/2004

The article is devoted to one of the greatest Bulgarian writers – Yordan Radichkov (1929–2004). The choice of Radichckov’s work “Attempt of flying” is eligible to an philosophical interpretation because of the following reasons. Radichkov has won public recognition in Bulgaria. He is a living classic of the Bulgarian literature and, to a great extent, its face. He has a considerable effect on the Bulgarian culture: from theatre to linguistics and philosophy. His works themselves ring true and eminently philosophically; simultaneously, they are not philosophical prose. His ideas contain exceptional depth and originality. The mythical and folklore elements which impart characteristic Bulgarian sounding to them are emphasized. His typically Bulgarian view of life charms the readers

„Пандемията възпроизвежда социалните отклонения и разделения“: Разговор между Жан-Люк Нанси и Никола Дютен за списание „Мариан“

Author(s): Jean-Luc Nancy / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 27/2021

In this interview, the philosopher Jean-Luc Nancy, an expert on all matters that concern the body and the community, shares with us his view that the Covid-19 virus is yet another prerequisite for the multiplication of inequalities. The different social groups experience the pandemic ambiguously, while at the same time, the current situation reminds us of a long-forgotten death that has, in fact, been humanity’s well-known companion for centuries. Although we live in an age when information itself is spreading like a virus, today, less than ever before, can we predict what tomorrow will bring. Because, as Nancy tells us, the lockdown is nothing compared to a complete temporal shutdown—we have forgotten that the essence of the future is to be vague.

„Песен на песните“ на Теодор Траянов в екзистенциално-религиозен диалог с философията на Сьорен Киркегор

Author(s): Tsvetana Georgieva / Language(s): Issue: 5/2006

The symbolistic poem ‘Song of the songs’ (1923) of Theodor Traianov represents an ‘indirect dialogue’ of the poet with the religious-philosophical fragments of Soren Kierkegaard. The triad of subjective experience and the concepts of the original sin and of self-sacrifice (presented in the Danish philosopher's works Fear and Trembling, Stages o n Life's Way, and The Edification Which Lies In The Fact That In Relation To God We Are Always In The Wrong) provoked Traianov into designing a specific philosophical-religious project about the mission of the artist, the intellectual, the new man, the knight of faith. The cultural and historical significance of the poem consists in the creation of a model of self-sacrifice different from that of Pencho Slaveikov – a model of spiritual leadership in the name of the Divine and the future of mankind.

„Печатни грешки“ и запечатани заблуди

Author(s): Liuben Sivilov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 4/2009

We have been accustomed to accept as normal the presence of spelling mistakes in translated books. The article shows that taken together these innocent spelling mistakes, abbreviations, blunders in illustrations, lack of subject indices and crippled bibliographies form a surprisingly harmonized system, which aims at the cultural segregation of Bulgarian intellectuals.

„ПОД КОЖАТА“ НА ЖИВОТНИТЕ ВО КНИЖЕВНОСТА: ЖИВОТИНСКАТА ПЕРСПЕКТИВА ВО РАСКАЗОТ ПЛАТНОМЕР НА ЛАВ Н. ТОЛСТОЈ

Author(s): Filip Trajkovski / Language(s): Macedonian Issue: 19/2019

In the last three decades, as a part of the wider discourse of posthumanism and under the common umbrella of the so-called animal studies, begins to develop a new interpretative literary criticism labeled as literary animal studies. This criticism, both ethical and political, makes (re)evaluation of the literature from the standpoint of how animals are represented and treated therein. Literary animal studies dispute the figurative use of animals, often reduced to tropes in service of the anthropocentric perspective, while searching for works of literature where animals are perceived in a way that respects their subjective character and independent existence. At the same time, the textual politics of animal representation in literature reveals the question of animals as otherness and the appropriate discussion of the human-animal divide, whereby new understanding and possible exit from the solipsism of the modern human subject is provided, all by decentering the anthropocentric humanism and rethinking of its ontological and epistemological limitations. In the abovementioned sense, starting from the animal perspective applied in it, this article seeks to (re)interpret Leo N. Tolstoy’s short story Kholstomer as an exemplary work in terms of literary animal studies.

„Поетическа теология“: херменевтиката и завръщането на древните богове в платонически контекст

Author(s): Bogdana Paskaleva / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 3/2020

Renaissance Platonism is linked to the revival of the interest in the deities of the Ancient pantheon. The present text traces back some of the origins of this process (the tradition of the Dolce stilnovo in Tuscan language and Dante Alighieri’s commentaries on his own works), arguing that the genre of the allegorical commentary on poetic texts is one of the main instruments facilitating the return of Ancient gods in the Christian context of 15th-century Florence. The key moments of the analysis regard Giovanni Pico della Mirandola’s commentary practice.

„Политическата коректност“ против нашата толерантност

Author(s): Momchil Doychev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 5/2010

“Political Correctness“ is part of the so called “Multiculturalism“. It is even associated with Tolerance, but in fact, political practice is a weapon against pivots and foundations of our Western Civilization. Political Correctness means being tolerant with intolerant practices of different radical (left) ideological, religious and other minority groups. In fact, ideological neutrality is impossible because of prejudices of the majority of people as well as results of real history...
