Belgrade has been devastated and redeveloped for countless times. Various cultures, nations and conquerors left different urban matrices and physical structure. The groundwork for conceptualization and research of the urban matrix as an essential element of Belgrade’s urban morphology are graphic presentations - the old maps and plans 4. Appreciating strategic significance Belgrade had up till 19 th century, they were mainly elaborating Belgrade Fortress area, while civil settlement – the Borough inside the Trench, a small typically oriental town (Kurtović Folić, 2000, pp. 15-21) was presented in general sketches. This paper deals with breakthrough conceptions about planned construc- tion of Belgrade inside and outside of the fortress moat from the beginning of the 19 th till the beginning of the 20 th century. The ruling period of Prince Miloš Obrenović was especially emphasized, when planned construction of the new, geometrically regulated Belgrade settlement in Western Vračar (outside the Trench) started and was supposed to be connected with the city center of the Serbian Belgrade (inside the Trench) around the current Sabor- 1 [email protected] 2 [email protected] 3 This paper was submitted on 14 August 2015 and accepted for publication at meeting of the Editorial Board held on 8 October 2015. -

Bojan Aleksov History Department Central European University
Bojan Aleksov History Department Central European University Nationalism in Construction: The Memorial Church of St. Sava on Vra čar Hill in Belgrade During the combat we all saw St. Sava, robed in white, and seated in a white chariot drawn by white horses, leading us on to victory. 1 According to Serbian oral tradition in the medieval and Ottoman period the role of St. Sava, whom the late Serbian Patriarch German once praised as the “Sun of Serbian heaven”, was always to watch over the Serbian people. 2 In many popular legends and folk tales he is the creator of miraculous springs, a master of the forces of nature with all the features of a God who blesses and punishes. Often cruel in punishing and horrendous in his rage, St. Sava, has the features of a primitive pagan god and, though a Christian saint, he embodied in the eyes of popular culture a pre-Christian pagan divinity or the ancient Serbian god of the underworld. 3 In the age of nationalism however, the Serbian cult of St. Sava acquired the different tasks of representing and reproducing powerful images of a national golden age, of national reconciliation and unification, and of martyrdom for the Church and the nation, For more than a century now, a church dedicated to this saint has been under construction in Belgrade, aimed at epitomizing and monumentalizing these images. While the whole cult of St. Sava provides a perfect example of how historical and biographical elements get used in the creation of national ideologies, in my paper I will focus on the construction of St. -

Half Title Page Balkanization and Global Politics: Remaking Cities and Architecture Nikolina Bobic Ever-increasingly, countries, states and regions are voicing a desire to be autonomous through a process of balkanization. This book explores the historical emergence, interdisciplinary application and current socio-spatial reasons why more places are seeking self-governance around the world. The spatialization of balkanization is particularly addressed in terms of destruction and renewal through a detailed socio-political interrogation of architecture and the urban, including their changing symbolic and functional forms. The book offers a reworking of the concept of balkanization through a reflective and critical analysis. The particular attention on the city of Belgrade, including the 1990s dissolution of Yugoslavia through specific case study focus of Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Serbia, provides insightful connections between balkanization, violent remaking and global politics. Against the detailed historical overview and prevailingly negative understanding of balkanization, a more positive instatement of balkanization for purposes of inclusivity is also presented. -
