The First Illyrian War: a Study in Roman Imperialism

It places Roman decision-making and action within its proper context by emphasizing the role that Greek polities and Illyrian tribes played in both the outbreak and conclusion of the war. It argues that the primary motivation behind the Roman decision to declare war against the Ardiaei in 229 was to secure the very profitable trade routes linking Brundisium to the eastern shore of the Adriatic. It was in fact the failure of the major Greek powers to limit Ardiaean piracy that led directly to Roman intervention. In the earliest phase of trans-Adriatic engagement Rome was essentially uninterested in expansion or establishing a formal hegemony in the Greek East and maintained only very loose ties to the polities of the eastern Adriatic coast. -

Today, after nearly 20 years, the wars are over, in most areas peace has set in, and stability has been achieved. And yet, in our interview with Blerim Reka, he echoes Clinton’s words saying: “It is the duty of our generation to tell our grandchildren the successful story of the Balkans, different from the bloody Balkans one which we were told about.” This and many more observations made by the authors of this issue of New Eastern Europe piece together a complex picture of a region marred by a painful past and facing a hopeful, yet fragile future. -
Travelogue 5 – Apollonia to Berat We Stopped Along the Road After
Travelogue 5 – Apollonia to Berat We stopped along the road after leaving Gjirokastër for a post-breakfast treat at a small bakery across from this long-abandoned factory. The dry semi-sweet cookies were more interesting than good, but the factory itself was worth the stop. Its sign, rarely seen today but common during the country’s Communist past, declared the glory of Marxism and Leninism. The sign on this abandoned building touted Marxism and Leninism. Our first destination was the ruins of Apollonia, an ancient city founded in 588 BC by Greek colonists. It was the most important of the several classical towns known as Apollonia and flourished in the Roman period only to decline in the 3rd century AD when its harbor started silting up as a result of an earthquake. The Monument of Agonothetes at Apollonia is impressive. While this site is more impressive to scholars than casual tourists, it also has an interesting more modern history dating from the 18th century when it was "rediscovered" and eventually investigated by archaeologists led by Frenchman Leon Rey in the 1920’s. There have been subsequent excavations, but abundant pottery shards and other ancient debris are ubiquitous. Ancient pottery shards littered old digs around the site. After a tour of the ruins, we visited the 13th-century Monastery of Apollonia and its associated Archaeological Museum, where Enea provided expert exhibit-by-exhibit commentary. The 13th-century Church of Saint Mary stands at the heart of the monastery. This beautiful iconographic panel was in the monastery. Is this a well-endowed fertility symbol? Upon leaving the museum we returned to the Ardenica restaurant, which we visited earlier in the trip, for a lunch of grilled vegetables and frog legs. -

Theme: Space, Place and Dwelling Space, Place and Dwelling is the theme of the Spring School that will be held in Tirana, Albania, for March 2018. Spatiality is an underrated but very fundamental aspect of both religious practice and religious reasoning. According to Tweed (2006), religious practice comes down to basically two forces: crossing and dwelling. Terrestrial crossing refers to physical movement, such as pilgrimage, certain spatial rituals, as well as spiritual travel indicating a movement across time and place. Corporeal crossing refers not only to the religious understanding of life cycles and modes of temporality, yet additionally the embodied limits and constraints in life as well as the concomitant registers of meaning provided by religion to confront them. Cosmic crossing refers to transcendental dynamics of boundaries, and to the religious language which provides meaning to crossing. One could also think of movement that is not religiously inspired, yet may well impact, notions of religion, such as migration and displacement due to religious reasons. -
The Kosovo War Tour: Dealing with the Country's War History As a Tour Operator
The Kosovo war tour: dealing with the country’s war history as a tour operator Image 1. “Adem Jashari” memorial complex, Prekaz, Kosovo. 31 May, 2018. by Sarah Driessen Driessen s4361954/1 s4361954 August, 2018 ⁕ Preface ⁕ The first time I visited Kosovo was three years ago in 2015. The country caught my interest and I have been going back there every year since. This is why the decision to focus on Kosovo for my research was quickly made. As a tourist, you stand out, because there are not many there. I have seen the beautiful and positive sides of Kosovo but at the same time I have noticed how the country, years after the war, still has a long way to go. With my research, I want to give a helping hand and combine tourism with the development of the country and dealing with the war history. I have written this thesis for my master’s degree in Human Geography: Cultural Geography & Tourism at the Radboud University, Nijmegen. I went to stay in the capital of Kosovo, Pristina, for three months and experienced what it is like to live there instead of just being a tourist. I hope this thesis can be of value to the person reading it. Sarah Driessen Gendt, 7 August, 2018 Driessen s4361954/2 ⁕ Summary ⁕ This research looks at the possibility of offering a war tour in Kosovo as a way to handle the war history of the country as a tour operator. Kosovo has a negative image among Dutch people, which is mostly caused by the country’s war history. -

Historical Places Information 1. Macedonia Square It is located in the central part of the city, and it crosses the Vardar River. The Christmas festivals are always held there and it commonly serves as the site of cultural, political and other events. The independence of Macedonia from Yugoslavia was declared here by the country's first president, Kiro Gligorov. The square is currently under re- development and there are many new buildings around the square being constructed. The three main streets that merge onto the square are Maksim Gorki, Dimitar Vlahov and Street Macedonia. Dimitar Vlahov Street was converted into a pedestrian street in 2011. Maksim Gorki, while not a pedestrian zone, is lined with Japanese Cherry trees, whose blossoms in spring mark a week-long series of Asian cultural events. Finally, Macedonia Street, the main pedestrian street, connects Macedonia Square to the Old Railway Station (destroyed by the 1963 earthquake), which houses the City of Skopje Museum. Along Macedonia Street is the Mother Teresa Memorial House, which features an exhibit of art facts from Mother Teresa's life. -
