LADO Celebrating the Richness and Diversity of Croatian Dance and Music LADO National Folk Dance Ensemble of Croatia LADO, an archaic Slavic word, is a synonym for good, kind and nice, and is frequently used as a refrain in ancient ritual songs of north-western Croatia. LADO, the National Folk Dance Ensemble of Croatia, was founded in 1949 in Zagreb as a professional national ensemble, with the aim of researching, artistically interpreting and presenting on stage the most beautiful examples of the rich traditions of Croatian music and dance. The ensemble's brilliant dancers, who are also excellent singers, can easily transform this folk dance ensemble into an impressive folk choir, while its 14 superb musicians play some fifty different traditional and classical instruments. In its repertoire, which consists of more than a hundred different choreographies and several hundred vocal, instrumental and vocal-instrumental numbers, LADO represents the rich and diverse regional musical and choreographic traditions of Croatia, which is geographically situated at a crossroad of Europe in which the Mediterranean, Balkan, Pannonian and Alpine influences are found in the dances, music and costumes. LADO is often called a "Dancing Museum" because of the priceless and beautiful authentic national costumes (more than 1,200 costumes) it has in its collection , some of which are 100 years old. The ensemble also presents new, contemporary musical and choreographic works based on traditional motifs and elements. LADO When My Wedding Party Awakens You - -

Bosnian Muslim Reformists Between the Habsburg and Ottoman Empires, 1901-1914 Harun Buljina
Empire, Nation, and the Islamic World: Bosnian Muslim Reformists between the Habsburg and Ottoman Empires, 1901-1914 Harun Buljina Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2019 © 2019 Harun Buljina All rights reserved ABSTRACT Empire, Nation, and the Islamic World: Bosnian Muslim Reformists between the Habsburg and Ottoman Empires, 1901-1914 Harun Buljina This dissertation is a study of the early 20th-century Pan-Islamist reform movement in Bosnia-Herzegovina, tracing its origins and trans-imperial development with a focus on the years 1901-1914. Its central figure is the theologian and print entrepreneur Mehmed Džemaludin Čaušević (1870-1938), who returned to his Austro-Hungarian-occupied home province from extended studies in the Ottoman lands at the start of this period with an ambitious agenda of communal reform. Čaušević’s project centered on tying his native land and its Muslim inhabitants to the wider “Islamic World”—a novel geo-cultural construct he portrayed as a viable model for communal modernization. Over the subsequent decade, he and his followers founded a printing press, standardized the writing of Bosnian in a modified Arabic script, organized the country’s Ulema, and linked these initiatives together in a string of successful Arabic-script, Ulema-led, and theologically modernist print publications. By 1914, Čaušević’s supporters even brought him to a position of institutional power as Bosnia-Herzegovina’s Reis-ul-Ulema (A: raʾīs al-ʿulamāʾ), the country’s highest Islamic religious authority and a figure of regional influence between two empires. -

The Production of Lexical Tone in Croatian
The production of lexical tone in Croatian Inauguraldissertation zur Erlangung des Grades eines Doktors der Philosophie im Fachbereich Sprach- und Kulturwissenschaften der Johann Wolfgang Goethe-Universität zu Frankfurt am Main vorgelegt von Jevgenij Zintchenko Jurlina aus Kiew 2018 (Einreichungsjahr) 2019 (Erscheinungsjahr) 1. Gutacher: Prof. Dr. Henning Reetz 2. Gutachter: Prof. Dr. Sven Grawunder Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 01.11.2018 ABSTRACT Jevgenij Zintchenko Jurlina: The production of lexical tone in Croatian (Under the direction of Prof. Dr. Henning Reetz and Prof. Dr. Sven Grawunder) This dissertation is an investigation of pitch accent, or lexical tone, in standard Croatian. The first chapter presents an in-depth overview of the history of the Croatian language, its relationship to Serbo-Croatian, its dialect groups and pronunciation variants, and general phonology. The second chapter explains the difference between various types of prosodic prominence and describes systems of pitch accent in various languages from different parts of the world: Yucatec Maya, Lithuanian and Limburgian. Following is a detailed account of the history of tone in Serbo-Croatian and Croatian, the specifics of its tonal system, intonational phonology and finally, a review of the most prominent phonetic investigations of tone in that language. The focal point of this dissertation is a production experiment, in which ten native speakers of Croatian from the region of Slavonia were recorded. The material recorded included a diverse selection of monosyllabic, bisyllabic, trisyllabic and quadrisyllabic words, containing all four accents of standard Croatian: short falling, long falling, short rising and long rising. Each target word was spoken in initial, medial and final positions of natural Croatian sentences. -
Proposal to Encode Bosnian Arabic Characters
Proposal to encode Bosnian Arabic characters Denis Moyogo Jacquerye <[email protected]> 2019-10-03 1. Introduction The Arabic alphabet has been used to write Bosnian from the 15th to the mid 20th century. In the early 20th century Mehmed Džemaludin Čaušević extended the alphabet, adding several letters including two letters that are proposed for encoding: • ARABIC LETTER NOON WITH INVERTED SMALL V for nj [ɲ], • ARABIC LETTER HAH WITH INVERTED SMALL V BELOW for ć [tɕ]. Other additional letters, which are already encoded, were used in this orthography: ,[For c [ts ڄ ARABIC LETTER DYEH 0684 • ,[For č [tʃ چ ARABIC LETTER TCHEH 0686 • ,[was used for both dž [dʒ] and đ [dʑ ج 062C ARABIC LETTER JEEM • ,[For lj [ʎ ڵ 06B5 ARABIC LETTER LAM WITH SMALL V • ,[For [u ۆ 06C6 ARABIC LETTER OE • .[For [o ۉ 06C9 ARABIC LETTER KIRGHIZ YU • Čaušević’s alphabet was used in publications from 1908 until the 1940s. That alphabet is referred to by several names: arebica, harfovica, matufovica, matufovača, mektebica. According to Pjanić (2009), several periodicals used arebica: Tarik (1908-1911), Muallim (1910-1913), Misbah (1912-1913) and Jeni Sabah (1914); and also the last publication using Arebica was Seid Serdarević Fikh ʾulʿibādāt (1941). Those two letters are mentioned in descriptions of Bosnian Arebica such as Bourgeois (1913), Lehfeldt (2001), Gažáková (2014). In recent years, there has been interest in Čaušević’s orthography. Notably in works by Al-Zubi and Cicak-Al-Zubi, in the Šegrt Suljica comics published in the Bosnian children magazine Elif. The 062C ARABIC LETTER is used for dž [dʒ] and another letter represents đ [dʑ], for ج JEEM example Al-Zubi and Cicak-Al-Zubi use 0620 ARABIC LETTER AIN WITH and a letter ARABIC LETTER HAH WITH SMALL V ڠ THREE DOTS ABOVE BELOW, which could potentially be encoded if in use, can be found in some character charts. -

Kapovic-Najnovije Jez. Promj. U Zg Govoru
KOLO 4/2006. MateKapović Najnovije jezične promjeneu zagrebačkomgovoru 1. Uvod 1 U članku ćemo govoriti o najnovijim jezičnim promjenama koje se dogañaju u zagrebačkom urbanom govoru. Pod zagrebačkim govorom podrazumijevamo običan govor većine mladih i mlañih ljudi roñenih i odraslih u Zagrebu. Dakle, tu ne mislimo na stari zagrebački kajkavski govor (za nj vidi Magner 1966, ZK 1998: 25-58) 2, nego na suvremeni, već poprilično štokaviziran govor mlañih naraštaja 3. Njegove ćemo glavne karakteristike izložiti malo poslije u tekstu. Pod najnovijim jezičnim promjenama podrazumijevamo jezične promjene koje su se ili počele dogañati u zadnjih pet, deset, petnaest godina ili su zabilježene možda i prije, ali se nisu odvile do kraja i još su "žive", tj. i dan-danas se odvijaju ili šire u novim kontekstima. Dakako da je teško, ako ne i nemoguće, točno odrediti kada je do odreñene jezične promjene došlo zbog nepostojanja takve vrste istraživanja u nas, i u prošlosti i danas. Tu se stoga moramo osloniti na vlastito zapažanje koje može biti više ili manje precizno 4. Valja napomenuti i da jezična promjena, dakako, ne znači da se nešto u jeziku promijenilo i da staroga oblika više nema 5. Jezične promjene nastupaju postupno i stari i inovativni oblici uglavnom razmjerno dugo supostoje kao varijable (što je jedan od glavnih predmeta izučavanja kvantitativne sociolingvistike 6). Treba napomenuti i da se mnoge od promjena koje navodimo za zagrebački urbani govor dogañaju i u drugim krajevima Hrvatske te ih ne treba smatrati isključivo zagrebačkima. Ovdje govorimo o jezičnim promjenama u Zagrebu jer je autor, s obzirom da živi u Zagrebu, te promjene mogao najlakše svakodnevno opažati, dočim mu je pristup drugim (gradskim) hrvatskim govorima ograničen. -
Language in Croatia: Influenced by Nationalism
Language in Croatia: Influenced by Nationalism Senior Essay Department of Linguistics, Yale University CatherineM. Dolan Primary Advisor: Prof. Robert D. Greenberg Secondary Advisor: Prof. Dianne Jonas May 1, 2006 Abstract Language and nationalism are closely linked, and this paper examines the relationship between the two. Nationalism is seen to be a powerful force which is capable ofusing language for political purposes, and the field oflinguistics has developed terminology with which the interface oflanguage and nationalism maybe studied. Using this background, the language situation in Croatia may be examined and seen to be complex. Even after thorough evaluation it is difficult to determine how languages and dialects should be delineated in Croatia, but it is certain that nationalism and politics play key roles in promoting the nation's linguistic ideals. 2 , Acknowledgements I suppose I could say that this essay was birthed almost two years ago, when I spent the summer traveling with a group ofstudents throughout Croatia, Bosnia and Serbia in order to study issues ofjustice and reconciliation. Had I never traveled in the region I may have never gained an interest in the people, their history and, yes, their language(s). Even after conducting a rigorous academic study ofthe issues plaguing former Socialist Federal Republic ofYugoslavia, I carry with me the impression that this topic can never be taken entirely into the intellectual realm; I am reminded by my memories that the Balkan conflicts involve people just as real as myself. For this, I thank all those who shared those six weeks oftraveling. That summer gave me new perspectives on many areas oflife. -
Linguistic Terminology Development in Croatian by the End of the 18Th Century
Until the mid 19th century Latin was the official language of education on the territory of Croatia. The development of linguistic terminology in the Croatian language was based on the Latin terminology, usually as a result of translation (loan translation). The first Croatian linguistic terminology refers to the graphic and orthographic areas because writers needed to explain the spelling principles that were used when writing in Croatian, such as Bartol Kašić did providing notes on graphic issues and spelling in his religious works. Kašić was followed by Jakov Mikalja in his writings on grammar and vocabulary. The Pauline order (the Order of Saint Paul the First Hermit) with their own university had a significant influence in the 17th century north-western Croatia, Istria and Primorje. Ivan Belostenec, one of the Pauline Fathers, compiled a great encyclopaedic Latin-Croatian and Croatian-Latin dictionary. The work was published in 1740, 65 years after Belostenec died, and in 1742 the Jesuits published another great Latin-Croatian dictionary, which was compiled by Andrija Jambrešić. Both these monumental lexicographical works abound in linguistic terminology. In the territory of the Kingdom of Dalmatia, Slavonia and Croatian in the 17th and 18th centuries, two variants of literary Croatian coexisted languages Shtokavian and Kajkavian and so, consequently, two parallel corpora of linguistic texts developed. In the mid 18th century the Empress and Queen Maria Theresa decided to regulate education in her empire, including Croatia. As a result of such a policy, the first two official linguistic manuals were released in 1779: ortographies of Croatian Kajkavian literary language and of Croatian Shtokavian literary language. -
