Cover design by Jeff Belizaire About this book This is one part of the first comprehensive study of the development of Greek sculpture and painting with the aim of enriching the usual stylistic-sociological approaches through a serious, disciplined consideration of the basic Greek scientific orientation to the world. This world view, known as the Four Elements Theory, came to specific formulation at the same time as the perfected contrapposto of Polykleitos and a concern with the four root colors in painting (Polygnotos). All these factors are found to be intimately intertwined, for, at this stage of human culture, the spheres of science and art were not so drastically differentiated as in our era. The world of the four elements involved the concepts of polarity and complementarism at every level.

The cinema, that “dream factory” takes over and employs countless mythical motifs – the fight between hero and monster, initiatory combats and ordeals, paradigmatic figures and images (the maiden, the hero, the paradisiacal landscape, hell and do on). Even reading includes a mythological function, only because it replaces the recitation of myths in archaic societies and the oral literature that still lives in the rural communities of Europe, but particularly because, through reading, the modern man succeeds in obtaining an ‘escape from time’ comparable to the ‘emergence from time’ effected by myths.

  • Kosovo Myths: Karadžić, Njegoš, and the Transformation of Serb Memory 
    Kosovo Myths: Karadžić, Njegoš, and the Transformation of Serb Memory ALEXANDER GREENAWALT e legend of Serbia’s defeat by invading Ottoman forces at the medieval battle of Kosovo on June , has long occupied a special place in Serbian natio- nal memory. Overcoming historical details that assign the event a more limited significance, the battle has come to symbolize a national death: the cataclys- mic end to the once glorious medieval Serbian state and the beginning of the -year-long Ottoman occupation, a time typically characterized both as an enslavement and as a deep national sleep. But the story also has a generative side. As Alex Dragnich and Slavko Todorovich explain in their popular history of the Kosovo region, “Kosovo is a grave and a grave means death and dust, but it also means rebirth and a source of new life” (). In the traditional account, memories of Kosovo cemented a collective Serb identity throughout the Otto- man centuries, as the Serb people kept their national spirit alive through the support of the Orthodox Church and the practice of orally transmitted epic song. In this way, Kosovo memory became an organizing principle, an inspira- tional link to medieval statehood that guided the Serbs through unimaginable hardships until, finally, in the course of the nineteenth century, they threw off the Ottoman shackles, and channeled national memory into a modern nation- state. At the heart of this national memory stands a highly mythologized account of the battle itself. Drawing on the two historical facts that are known with some certainty – that both the Serbian Prince Lazar and the Ottoman Sultan Murad were killed at the battle – the Kosovo narrative has evolved into a in- tricate morality play highlighting themes of martyrdom, treachery, and heroic self-sacrifice, and supplying a central symbolic source for modern Serb identity.

    KNOWLEDGE – International Journal Vol.38.2 LITERARY WORK AS A GENOCIDE INSPIRATOR (MORAL CHALLENGES IN EDUCATIONAL CURRICULUM) Suada A. Džogović University ''Haxhi Zeka'', Peć, Republic of Kosovo, [email protected] Abstract: This paper provides an overview of the book ''Generator genocida'' (''Genocide generator''), by the author Shemsudin Hadrovic, which presents a historical and literary analysis of Njegos's ''Gorski vijenac'' (''The Mountain Wreath'') and its epic genocide, as well as the consequences of hatred over the last hundred and fifty years, and as a result of massacres and ethnic cleansing not only in Montenegro but also in the wider Balkans. This analysis points to the motivation behind the genocidal poetics of the ''Gorski vijenac'' (''Mountain Wreath'') and its criminal ideology. This analysis points to the motivation behind the genocidal poetics of the ''Gorski vijenac'' (''Mountain Wreath'') and its criminal ideology. A very current issue in history, politics and education is presented, which has even become a tradition and is wholeheartedly transmitted to all cultural projects, including curricula. Thus, at all levels of schools, educators are offered as truths and patriotic messages, which are not, because they are the result of narrow and counterproductive nationalist ideologies and intolerances aimed at reconstructing big-state options, aggressing and hyperbolizing the role of their nation, emphasizing myths and religious cults. By affirming national culture, state institutions, through their mechanism of action, impose a cultural-educational system whose framework contributes to the spread of nationalism in schools and the transmission of political ideology. Therefore, the key problem is to get rid of the influence of politics, that is, the content of individual books that encourage nationalism in education.
