Amire a történetírás elméletei nem képesek

Amire a történetírás elméletei nem képesek

Author(s): Zoltán Boldizsár Simon / Language(s): Hungarian / Issue: 01/2013

Az utóbbi néhány évtized történetelméletét, mint bármely más akadémiai tevékenysé- get, ambíciók fûtik. Ezek az ambíciók olykor elismerésre méltók, máskor inkább zavarbaejtõk, és értetlenséget szülnek, alkalmasint pedig egyszerre elismerésre méltók és zavarbaejtõk. A történetelmélet a legjobb pillanataiban korábban elképzelhetetlennek tûnõ meglátásokkal és gondolatébresztõ elméleti fejtegetésekkel szolgálhat a történetírói vállalkozás természetérõl, mindeközben azonban hajlamos egyfajta intellektuális dominancia megtestesüléseként tekinteni magára, és alkalmasint megpróbál befolyást gyakorolni a fejtegetései tárgyára, mondván, hogy a gondolatébresztõ elméleti fejtegetései képesek a történetírás gyakorlatának radikális átformálásá- ra – vagy hogy egyenesen éppen arra hivatottak.

AN ATTRACTIVE ENEMY: THE CONQUEST OF CONSTANTINOPLE IN BULGARIAN IMAGERY

Author(s): Nikolay Aretov / Language(s): English / Issue: 4/2019

The Ottoman conquest of Constantinople was a critical event in the history of the Balkans, that left its profound imprint on the notions of Bulgarians of their past and of their self-image. Behind the seemingly unambiguous evaluation of this event – a defeat of Christendom that has to do with the fall of the Bulgarian Kingdom – an observer could trace one more complicated, ambivalent picture. The paper marks some of its premises:A) The city was unsuccessfully attacked by Bulgarians several times in the past and they still think themselves through the prism of these wars. B) Byzantines (Greeks) and Ottomans (Turks) are the traditional enemies in the Bulgarian national mythology. Their conflict and their interrelations as a whole generate different reactions, multiple plots.C) In the nineteenth century when the foundations of Bulgarian nationalism were set up, Constantinople (Istanbul) was probably the city with the largest Bulgarian population and the stage for many of the important events in the Bulgarian society.This paper offers а brief review of the main types of Bulgarian texts from the 19th and early 20th centuries dealing with the fall of Constantinople, comparing them with some Byzantine sources, with some Greek and other interpretations of this event and focuses on one not so popular dramatic work, written in verses by Svetoslav Milarov in the early 1870s. Here the ambivalent attitude of a part of Bulgarian society to the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople was more visible.

An Investigation of Official Corruption in Ottoman Egypt: Processes and Documents of Ottoman Administration

Author(s): Linda Darling / Language(s): English / Issue: 4/2016

The investigation in question is recorded in a series of thirty-eight register entries on a case of financial malfeasance in recently-conquered Ottoman Egypt that was investigated by officials from Ottoman Syria. This case appears in the oldest existing mühimme defteri, a register of important affairs of the Ottoman Empire, and provides detailed information about how the Ottomans governed their provinces. It lists many of the taxes and revenues collected by the Ottomans and discusses the most important treasury personnel in the province and the documents they created. It also describes how the Ottoman state worked to control those personnel even at a distance and to induce these officials to adhere to concepts of just imperial rule. The article describes the issues in the case and identifies the provincial officials involved in the investigation, the documents they were supposed to collect or create, and the procedures they were commanded to follow. The conclusion examines the implications of the case for our understanding of the place of Syria and Egypt within the wider Ottoman Empire in the sixteenth century. This episode presents an instance of the Ottoman integration of newly conquered lands in a period when records are fairly plentiful (in contrast to the conquest of Rumeli, where most of our evidence comes from chronicles written at a later date). Beyond that, this case illuminates the whole issue of how an empire operates and challenges the stereotype of general Ottoman oppression of the conquered territories.

Annäherungen an eine Unsichtbare Vergangenheit: Ethnoarchäologische Forschungen zu den Salzwasserquellen der Moldauischen Vorkarpaten (Rumänien)

Author(s): Marius Alexianu,Olivier Weller,Robin Brigand,Roxana-Gabriela Curcă / Language(s): German / Issue: 1/2014

The sub-Carpathian area of Moldavia (Romania) represents the ideal framework to perform extensive ethno-archaeological research as the area harbours over 200 salt springs near which are found remarkable archaeological deposits related to salt exploitation, in particular from Neolithic and Chalcolithic times (6000-3500 BC). Nowadays, these mineral springs are still exploited at an unexpected degree of intensity by members of rural as well as of urban communities. The main research focuses on the identification of all salt springs in sub-Carpathian Moldavia and on the completion of complex ethno-archaeological research (exploitation, uses, distribution networks, trade, social contexts, symbolism, etc.) in order to propose new and more varied models for explaining prehistoric situations.

Anthropology of fear. Ukrainian massacres of the Polish population in Volhynia and Eastern Galicia, 1943‑1944

Anthropology of fear. Ukrainian massacres of the Polish population in Volhynia and Eastern Galicia, 1943‑1944

Author(s): Ernest Komoński / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2013

The Polish population of Volhynia and Eastern Galicia was gripped by fear of ethnic cleansing at the hands of Ukrainian nationalists in the years 1943‑1944. This fear varied in form and intensity depending on the perceived aims which ranged from their physical extermination to simple eviction. This article attempts to analyse the fundamental determinants of Polish defensive actions in response to those fears.

Anton Bezenšek and Bulgaria: the Slovenian Who Bridged Two Slavic Cultures

Author(s): Ivayilo Nachev / Language(s): English / Issue: 3/2015

The Slovenian stenographer and publicist Anton Bezenšek is a comparatively unknown figure to the wider public in Bulgaria, which became his second homeland a century ago. At the same time the person, who in fact introduced the shorthand writing in Bulgaria, remains a widely renowned figure among stenographers. The article outlines the major contributions he made not only as a professional stenographer, who became a pioneer in teaching people a completely new skill, but also as a public figure that left traces in various fields of Bulgarian public life during the first few decades after the Liberation. It also analyses his heritage as part of the dialogue between two close cultures such as the Bulgarian and the Slovenian one.

ARTIKULIRANJE RAZLIKA MEĐU GRUPAMA: VARIJACIJE AUTOCENTRIZMA

ARTIKULIRANJE RAZLIKA MEĐU GRUPAMA: VARIJACIJE AUTOCENTRIZMA

Author(s): Muhammad Shahid Alam / Language(s): Bosnian / Issue: 80/2019

In this article the author asserts upon various forms and manifestations of differentialism and auto centrism that lie upon premises of one’s own superiority over inferiority, and upon the recessiveness and lesser value of ‘the other’. The author notes that auto-centrism of Chinese, Greeks and Muslims had a form of cultural differentialism and particularity, whereas Euro-centrism represents a form of racist ideology based on premises of natural, inborn, essential, God-given superiority derived from ideology of “blood and soil” and belief that they are chosen to cultivate, civilise, enlighten, humanise, democratise, improve in other words subjugate ‘the other’. Unlike Amin, who claims that Eurocentric ideology of differentialism is related to capitalism and economic superiority of the West, the author here finds that the root of this ideology lays in particular interpretations of religion, tribal heritage and specific historical development and social relations in this region.

ASCLEPIUS WITH EGG “TYPE NEA PAPHOS-ALEXANDRIA-TRIER”: NEW DATA AND SOME NEW REFLECTIONS

Author(s): Vito Mazzuca / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2014

G. Grimm first identified a new iconography of Asclepius, the so-called Nea Paphos-Alexandria-Trier, in 1989. He recognized the small city of Abonoteichus in Paphlagonia as the place from which, during second half of the 2nd century A.D., this type had spread. In the mid '90s, F. Sirano examined this little-known iconography, making an important contribution by updating the catalogue of these sculptures, suggesting that the archetype was the cult statue that stood in the Asklepieion of Cos during the 2nd century A.D. Now, after many years, we need to update the catalogue of copies representing the type Nea Paphos: seven new sculptures can now be added to those compiled by Grimm and Sirano, and consequently this topic requires new consideration.

Výklady dějin Židů v českých zemích a v Polsku po druhé světové válce

Author(s): Kateřina Čapková / Language(s): Czech / Issue: 1/2019

The article was originally published in English under the title “Beyond the Assimilationist Narrative: Historiography on the Jews of the Bohemian Lands and Poland after the Second World War” in the Polish journal Studia Judaica, Vol. 19, No. 1 (37) (2016), pp. 129–155. The authoress compares the historiographies of the post war history of Jews in the Czech Lands and Poland, analyzing not only differences between, but above all similarities in paradigms of interpretations of the Jewish experience in these two regions. She first compares the institutional base, contents, and quantity of research of Jewish history in the Communist and post-Communist Czechoslovakia and Poland, drawing a conclusion that while dozens of publicationson the post-war experience of Polis Jews were written in Poland in the 1980s and particularly in the 1990s, writing about the modern Jewish history (save for a few works on Theresienstadt) had been unacceptable in Czechoslovakia until the political changes in 1989, and even then the interest of Czech historians in the post-war life of Czech Jews (unlike that in their tragic fate during the war) did not show any substantial increase. At the same time, the authoress claims that it generally holds true (and not only for the Polish and Czech/Czechoslovak historiographies) that while the notion of assimilation has been broadly criticized and questioned with respect to the older period of the Jewish history, it still dominates in works dealing with the time after the 2nd World War. This means, in fact, that the post-war existence and experience of religious-minded Czech and Polish Jews has been either denied, or marginalized, and that the history of Jews, who are often perceived as a monolithic social group, has been misleadingly interpreted as a story of linear assimilation. To a substantial extent, the interpretation is a result of the unacceptable generalization/extrapolation of the situation in the center (Prague, Warsaw) to that in outlying regions. It must be noted that roughly a half of the post-war Jewish population in the Czech Lands were immigrant who had lived in Carpathian Ruthenia or eastern Slovakia before the war and who were forming up new communities based on different traditions; similarly, almost a half of the post-war Jewish population in Poland were living in Lower Silesia where they had been repatriated from the Soviet Union. Compared to the assimilation narrative burdened with nationalism and conforming to the official interpretation of the Communist era, the authoress offers alternatives respecting the complexity and plurality of the human society.

Aspects de l’image de la Thrace dans le discours religieux de l’Antiquité

Author(s): Mina Tasseva Bencheva / Language(s): English,French / Issue: 24/2019

The sacred discourses (hieroi logoi) are a group of ancient texts that existed in some philosophical and religious movements such as Pythagoreanism, Orphism, the cult of Dionysus and the goddess Isis. Due to their secret content, much of these discourses is now lost or known only partially, by accounts of various Greek authors such as Herodotus, Pausanias and Plutarch. Excerpts of these works can therefore be regarded as testimonia to various details on the content, authorship and transmission of these discourses. According to some of these testimonia, Orpheus and Thrace were involved in the composing and transmission of some of the most ancient hieroi logoi. The paper intends to explore aspects of the image of Thrace and its role in religious communication based on these testimonia. After a brief introduction, it will focus on the narratives related to the region. According to a tradition related by Iamblichus and Proclus, Orpheus was the author of a sacred discourse that was thereafter transmitted to the Greeks. Both the creation and the transmission took place in specific locations in Thrace. The analysis of that tradition, along with the locations and the techniques of transmission it refers to, suggest that these locations were associated with a special kind of religious knowledge, hence their mention played a significant role in the narrative and in conveying its message.

Aspects of 1918 from the Journal of a Theologian

Aspects of 1918 from the Journal of a Theologian

Author(s): Ioana Mihaela Bonda / Language(s): English / Issue: Suppl 2/2018

The Great Union of 1918 has sparked over time the interest of many specialists. approached from various perspectives, the topic is always current, and new sources are added to it. In the vast process of the exhaustive reconstruction of the event, which marked the establishment of Great Romania, the memoirs and journals of the participants constitute an important historiographical source. Starting from these premises, the present paper aims to highlight the manner in which was perceived, against the backdrop of a high expectations horizon, the Union of 1918 by the Fãgãraş vicar forane, Iacob Popa (1872-1937).

ASPECTS OF ECONOMIC TRANSITION ILLUSTRATED BY EXAMPLES FROM SLOVENIA, SERBIA AND CROATIA

Author(s): Aleksander Lorenčič / Language(s): English / Issue: 3/2016

At the symbolic level, the fall of the Berlin Wall marked the beginning of the economic transition, a process that involved over 30 countries. Although all these countries worked to overcome the transformational crisis as smoothly as possible, some were more successful than others. In addition to the baseline conditions, the transition from the transformational recession to further economic development was influenced by a number of other factors. This paper presents the mentioned factors in detail by using the examples of former “brotherly” Yugoslav republics of Slovenia, Serbia and Croatia.
