Mihail Jora Către Didia Saint Georges. Un Serial Epistolar Inedit
Revista MUZICA Nr. 2 / 2018 ISTORIOGRAFIE Mihail Jora către Didia Saint Georges Un serial epistolar inedit Lavinia Coman Au şi scrisorile soarta lor. Sunt 45 de ani de când maestrul Mihail Jora (1891-1971) a plecat din această lume şi 37 de ani de la dispariţia Didiei Saint Georges (1888-1979)1. Un pachet cu 18 scrisori şi două tăieturi de ziar au traversat deceniile pentru a ajunge în sfârşit, în lumina publică. Pe lângă originile moldovene comune, pe corespondenţi îi leagă câteva coordonate ale destinului. Dotaţi amândoi cu vocaţie muzicală, 1 Didia Saint Georges a fost pianistă şi compozitoare (1888, Botoşani – 1979, Bucureşti). A studiat la Conservatorul din Iaşi între 1905 -1907 şi la Conservatorul din Leipzig între 1907 – 1910 cu Robert Teichmüller -pianul, cu Emil Paul - armonia şi contrapunctul, cu Stephan Krell - compoziţia. A concertat ca solistă şi ca parteneră în recitaluri camerale, de lied etc. A primit Menţiune la Premiul de compoziţie George Enescu (1929) pentru Variaţiuni pe un cântec evreiesc; Menţiunea I la Premiul de compoziţie George Enescu (1930) pentru Suita De la musique avant toute chose; Menţiunea I onorifică la Premiul de compoziţie George Enescu (1943) pentru Sonatina pentru pian. A fost membră a Societăţii Compozitorilor Români din anul 1929. Lisette Georgescu, prietena lor comună, o evocă astfel în articolul său In memoriam Mihail Jora: ”Didia Saint Georges, compozitoare de talent,…dar care nu s-a dedicat serios compoziţiei, cu tot talentul ei rămânând la mijloc de drum. La un moment dat s-a ivit o gravă spărtură în prietenia lor dar, datorită Marianei Dumitrescu, preţuită şi iubită de Didia, conflictul s-a aplanat.” (Lisette Georgescu, In memoriam Mihail Jora, în Mihail Jora. -

Re/Defining the Imaginary Museum of National Music
Re/Defining the Imaginary Museum of National Music The Case of Croatia Zdravko Blažekovic´ The historian is a product of history himself, and of his situation. However hard we may try, he cannot escape the molding of his mind by his experience and his surroundings.1 Music historiography in Croatia was throughout the twentieth century marked by the path established in the late nineteenth century by Franjo Ksaver Kuhač (1834-1911), who defined the criteria for inclusion of musicians into the national canon on the basis of their Croatian ethnic origin rather than presenting cultural circles in which they were active. In the twentieth century, the central influence on the definition of the canon of Croatian music history came from Josip Andreis (1909-1982) in his historical survey published in three Croatian editions (Razvoj muzičke umjetnosti u Hrvatskoj [The development of musical arts in Croatia], 1962; Povijest hrvatske glazbe [History of Croatian music], 1974, 1989) and two English editions (Music in Croatia 1974, 1982). Synthesizing the existing views about Croatian music, he constructed in his narrative a museum of Croatian and foreign com- posers active in Croatia, as well as composers born in Croatia but living abroad. Besides nationalistic traits inherited from Kuhač, a reason for emphasizing activities of composers working abroad were the political and cultural circumstances surrounding Andreis during the time of communist Yugoslavia, when Croatian connections with the Central European musical space were particularly appreciated, especially when the quality of composers living abroad surpassed the musical production within the country. Being a part of multina- tional Yugoslavia situated between the Eastern and Western cultural and religious spheres, Croatians at the time wanted to distance themselves from the cultures in Eastern Europe and felt the need to be reassured about their belonging to Slavia Latina. -

Hungarian Constitutional Law and the Serbian Question in the Political Ideology of Svetozar Miletić
Institute for Political Studies UDC 32 Miletić S.:[342(439)+323.1(=163.41) Serbian Political Thought Manuscript received: 13.09.2013. No. 2/2013, Accepted for publishing: 05.11.2013. Year V, Vol. 8 Review article pp. 103-117 Dejan Mikavica1 Faculty of Philosophy University of Novi Sad Hungarian Constitutional Law and the Serbian Question in the Political Ideology of Svetozar Miletić Abstract In the political ideology of Svetozar Miletić and other liberal Serbian po- litical leaders in the Habsburg Monarchy, Hungarian constitutional law repre- sented constitutional and legal framework acceptable inasmuch as the ruling Hungarian state doctrine even partially recognised Serbian privileges, and their democratic and national rights. The initial request to form special territorial autonomy for Serbs within Hungary, which was to have considerable authority over certain aspects of social life, was redefined after the Austro-Hungarian Compromise by requesting administrative integration of Hungarian counties on national basis. Institutionally conducted Magyarisation within Hungary in- dicated the loss of national identity of all non-Hungarian peoples in Hungary, while the cancellation of Serbian ecclesiastical-educational autonomy meant sanctioning of Serbian privileges. Keywords: Svetozar Miletić, Austria-Hungary, Hungary, the Annunciation Council, ecclesiastical-educational autonomy, Vojvodina. Since the end of the 17th century legal and political status of Ser- bian people within the Habsburg Monarchy was regulated by impe- rial privileges as well as laws adopted by Hungarian Assembly up to year 1848, after which the Hungarian Parliament. Royal privileges were construed by ecclesiastical and clerical representatives of Austro- Hungarian Serbs as a constitutional and legislative contract, based on which they deduced the right of Serbs to acquire the status of an equal, historical nation in a state where that status had been continuously de- 1 Associate professor [email protected] 103 nied to them. -
Dintre Ramuri De Arin
eternitãti,,, DINTRE RAMURI DE ARIN În ianuarie, când pãdurile trosnesc de ger, când sub zãrile dilatate de fum drumurile, de un albastru subtil, se încâlcesc de spasme, s-a nãscut cel mai mare poet al românilor. Ivit pe lume în þinutul care avea sã ni-i dãruiascã prin ani pe George Enescu, ªtefan Luchian, Nicolae Iorga, el s-a nãscut din dorul arborilor, din chemãri de izvoare, din clãtinãri de lanuri de grâu, din deschiderea lunii în flori de nufãr, din boarea de aur magic ce pluteºte peste Moldova ºi norodul ei de mãnãstiri în care-ºi dorm somnul binemeritat marii voievozi ai întemeierii noastre. Mihai Eminescu este numele unei þãri ºi al unui neam. El a dat limbii române fiinþã ºi destin de nemurire, înnobilând-o cu luminã de geniu, cu trestii þâºnind din fecunditatea Dunãrii ºi a visului fericit, cu dezmierdãri de aprilie, cu mare sub fereastrã ºi grãdini în care gândesc piersicii. Noi toþi (inclusiv cei ce-l denigreazã) suntem patimã clãditã pe cuvintele lui, ºi fiecare cuvânt al lui e o vatrã de jãratec lângã care se-ngânã poveºti ºi doine, ghicitori, eresuri. Mihai Eminescu este fulgerul rotund al României trecând prin glasul vechilor biserici ºi cazanii, e partea cea mai înaltã a istoriei. Cu el începe ºi urcã munþii lumii credinþa noastrã în pãmântul ce-l cãlcãm ºi-l iubim. El a sãdit eternitatea cu tei ºi cu plopi, cu turme încãrcate de amurg, ºi de liniºte lungã, el ne-a împodobit dragostea cu ºoapte ce fac stelele sã coboare vrãjite pânã în dreptul tâmplelor ºi ne-a schimbat fiecare gând în pasãre care bea lunã ºi pluteºte la nesfârºit numai în pânzele de apã vie ale cerului botezat în Uspenia Botoºanilor. -

Sažetak: Sama riječ Balkan vro je komplicirana jer se od poprilično neprecizne geografske odrednice pretvorila u politizirani pojam kojeg krase mnogi, vrlo često negativni atributi. Tijekom godina o Balkanu su se rađali mnogi zapadnjački mitovi koji su ga orijentarizirali i stavljali, a i danas ga stavljaju, na rub civiliziranog svijeta. Posebno je u tom svijetlu zanimljivo vidjeti položaj Hrvatske kao istovremeno balkanske i europske zemlje, s čvrstim argumentima za obje pozicije. Balkan je mjesto gdje su se kroz povijest uvijek rađali snažni identiteti. Do pred kraj prošlog stoljeća, na snazi je bio jugoslavenski identitet, da bi početkom 90ih došlo do snažnog rasta nacionalnih identiteta. Ipak, smirivanjem ratnim strasti, ponovno sve više na snagu stupa jedinstveni, balkanski identitet. Jak činitelj identiteta svih ljudi zasigurno je glazba i ove se činjenice očituju i u njoj. Upravo je glazba snažno pozivala ljude na jedinstvo svih Jugoslavena, zatim na rat i obranu kako hrvatske, tako i srpske kulture i vjere, a danas poziva na stvaranje jedne nove balkanske kulture i društva; kulture užitaka i alkohola s jedne, ali i društva koje živi u bijedi, siromaštvu i koje se treba boriti protiv političkih elita. -

Po stoletnih željah, občasnih poskusih in večletnih končnih prizadevanjih vse sloven- ske javnosti je bila pravno veljavno ustanovljena leta 1938; uredba o njeni ustanovitvi je bila izdana 11. avgusta in uradno potrjena 31. istega meseca z objavo v »Službenih novinah«; prvi člani so bili v Akademijo imenovani 7. oktobra, prva glavna skupščina sklicana za 12. november in prvi predsednik izvoljen 4. januarja 1939. Ustanovljena je bila akademija kot »osrednja, najvišja in najpopolnejša znanstvena in umetniška ustanova.. kulture slo- venskega naroda«, kot je tedaj pisala slovenska javnost; vendar pa si je morala nadeti le ime »Akademija znanosti in umetnosti v Ljubljani«, ne pa tudi »slovenska«, kajti v tistih letih smo Slovenci veljali samo za pleme jugoslovanskega naroda in sloven- ščina samo za eno od narečij enotnega jugoslovanskega jezika. To ustanovno ime je še danes vklesano na spominski plošči v veži upravne stavbe današnje Slovenske akademije znanosti in umetnosti, ki si je sedanji naziv smela nadeti šele po osvo- boditvi. Leto 1938 pa lahko obvelja kot ustanovno leto Akademije le po najstrožji formalni presoji, le tedaj, ko za priznanje njenega nastanka zahtevamo formalno ustanovitev in gmotno vzdrževanje s strani te ali one države. -
