A Survey of Macedonian Literature in English Translation
A Survey of Macedonian Literature in English Translation “If I had an eagle’s wings I would rise and fly on them To see our shores, to our own parts…” From Konstantin Miladinov’s, “Longing for the South” Macedonian may arguably be the oldest written Slavic language as the basis for Kiril and Methodius' 9th century translations of Christian liturgical texts into what we today call the Old Church Slavic language. However, it is also the most recent Slavic language to receive official recognition and standardization after the establishment of the Republic of Macedonia as part of Yugoslavia in 1946. The number of literary works by Macedonian authors in English translation today is only surpassed by translations in Serbian and/or Croatian during the existence of the former Yugoslavia. Particularly since the full independence of the Republic since the breakup of Yugoslavia in the 1990's, the pace of publication of English language translations has increased dramatically. This is due in part to the large concentrations of Macedonian immigrants, numbering in the tens of thousands, in major cities throughout English-speaking Canada, the United States, Australia and the United Kingdom, and a dramatic increase in communication and collaboration among members of the Macedonian diaspora and Macedonians in the home country with improved means of travel and the effective spread of internet communication worldwide. I have participated in this process as the author of a doctoral dissertation published by the University Press of America in 1996, The 19th Century Macedonian Awakening, the life and works of Kiril Peichinovich, one of the earliest writers in the modern Macedonian language, and as the translator of a number of literary works, beginning with the short story "Tatko" by Zhivko Chingo, published in Short Story International in 1983 and most recently the novel The Legend of Kalesh Andja by Stale Popov, published by the Literary Association "Grigor Prlichev" of Sydney, Australia in 2005. -

The Influence of Ancient Greek Culture on Macedonian Literature of The
COLLOQUIA HUMANISTICA Macedonian Academy of Sciences and Arts VitomirSkopje Mitevski 19th Century The Influence of Ancient Greek Culture on Macedonian Literature of the hanks to the geographical1. General situation, review Macedonia has been exposed Tto the influence of classical culture during the long period from the ancient times to our days. Through the centuries, this influence was stronger or weaker, but ever present in some way. In the beginning, the contact with the classical Greek culture was immediate in architecture and art. The remains of many ancient cities in Macedonia today, with their theatres, monuments, statues etc. are strong evidence of this contact. Many historical and literary documents also provide evidence of authentic classical cultural way of living in ancient Macedonia. During the Byzantine period Macedonia remained part of the empire. The specific interest in the classical culture of Byzantium was evident to various degrees in cultural centers of Macedonia. The continuity of the classical influence was interrupted by the Turkish conquest in the 15th century and this trend remained until the 19th century. In the first half of the 19th century, historical and cultural circumstances started to change. It was the time of rebellion of Balkan peoples against the Turkish rule and emergence of new independent national states. The interest for classical culture returned under the influence of Western Europe, especially France – the French Revolution launched ideas of new humanism, romanticism and neoclassicism. But this influence in Macedonia did not become apparent immediately. At the time, Macedonia was still under Turkish rule and all new ideas were originating in the countries newly founded in the neighborhood. -

An Introduction, Phonological, Morphological, Syntactic to The
AN INTRODUCTION, PHONOLOGICAL, MORPHOLOGICAL, SYNTACTIC, TO THE GOTHIC OF ULFILAS. BY T. LE MARCHANT DOUSE. LONDON: TAYLOR AND FRANCIS, RED LION COURT, FLEET STREET. 1886, PRINTED BY TAYLOR AND FRANCIS, BED LION COURT, FLEET STREET. PREFACE. THIS book was originally designed to accompany an edition of Ulfilas for which I was collecting materials some eight or nine years ago, but which various con- siderations led me to lay aside. As, however, it had long seemed to me equally strange and deplorable that not a single work adapted to aid a student in acquiring a knowledge of Gothic was to be found in the English book-market, I pro- ceeded to give most of the time at my disposal to the " building up of this Introduction," on a somewhat larger scale than was at first intended, in the hope of being able to promote the study of a dialect which, apart from its native force and beauty, has special claims on the attention of more than one important class of students. By the student of linguistic science, indeed, these claims are at once admitted ; for the Gothic is one of the pillars on which rests the comparative grammar of the older both Indo-European languages in general, and also, pre-eminently, of the Teutonic cluster of dialects in particular. a But good knowledge of Gothic is scarcely less valuable to the student of the English language, at rate, of the Ancient or any English Anglo-Saxon ; upon the phonology of which, and indeed the whole grammar, the Gothic sheds a flood of light that is not to be got from any other source. -

The Origin and Spread of Locative Determiner Omission in the Balkan Linguistic Area
The Origin and Spread of Locative Determiner Omission in the Balkan Linguistic Area by Eric Heath Prendergast A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Linguistics in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Line Mikkelsen, Chair Professor Lev Michael Professor Ronelle Alexander Spring 2017 The Origin and Spread of Locative Determiner Omission in the Balkan Linguistic Area Copyright 2017 by Eric Heath Prendergast 1 Abstract The Origin and Spread of Locative Determiner Omission in the Balkan Linguistic Area by Eric Heath Prendergast Doctor of Philosophy in Linguistics University of California, Berkeley Professor Line Mikkelsen, Chair This dissertation analyzes an unusual grammatical pattern that I call locative determiner omission, which is found in several languages belonging to the Slavic, Romance, and Albanian families, but which does not appear to have been directly inherited from any individual genetic ancestor of these languages. Locative determiner omission involves the omission of a definite article in the context of a locative prepositional phrase, and stands out as a feature of the Balkan linguistic area for which there are few, if any crosslinguistic parallels. This investigation of the origin and diachronic spread of locative determiner omission serves the particular goal of revealing how the social context of language contact could have resulted in a pattern of grammatical borrowing without lexical borrowing, yielding a present distribution in which locative determiner omission appears in several Balkan languages no longer in direct contact with one another. A detailed structural and historical analysis of locative determiner omission in Albanian, Romanian, Aromanian, and Macedonian is used as a basis for comparison with other Balkan languages. -

The attempt has been made to present all emendations subsequent to the editio pri?iceps ; but a few repeated misspellings of proper names and similarly obvious corrections are not reported. A few of the emenda- tions of the princeps have been included exempli gratia. The apparatus of Giarratano (Titi Livi Ah Urhe Condita Libri XLI-XLF, Rome, 1933) has been constantly consulted, but not always followed. The maps are intended to show the location of all places mentioned in the volume, if the location is known. Kiepert's Atlas Antiquus has been used in preparing these maps ; places not located by Kiepert have a question-mark following the name. Where the name is spelled by Kiepert in a way conspicuously different from the Livy text, the Kiepert spelling will be found in parentheses in the Index. The map of Rome is taken from O. Richter, Topograpkie der Stadt Rom, Miinchen, Beck, 1901 (Iwan MuUer, Handbuch, III, 3), by kind permission of the pub- lishers. -
National Myths in Interdependence
National Myths in Interdependence: The Narratives of the Ancient Past among Macedonians and Albanians in the Republic of Macedonia after 1991 By Matvey Lomonosov Submitted to Central European University Nationalism Studies Program In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts CEU eTD Collection Advisor: Professor Maria Kovács Budapest, Hungary 2012 Abstract The scholarship on national mythology primarily focuses on the construction of historical narratives within separate “nations,” and oftentimes presents the particular national ist elites as single authors and undisputable controllers of mythological versions of the past. However, the authorship and authority of the dominant national ist elites in designing particular narratives of the communal history is limited. The national past, at least in non- totalitarian societies, is widely negotiated, and its interpretation is always heteroglot . The particular narratives that come out of the dominant elites’ “think-tanks” get into a polyphonic discursive milieu discussing the past. Thus they become addressed to alternative narratives, agree with them, deny them or reinterpret them. The existence of those “other” narratives as well as the others’ authorship constitutes a specific factor in shaping mythopoeic activities of dominant political and intellectual national elites. Then, achieving personal or “national” goals by nationalists usually means doing so at the expense or in relations to the others. If in this confrontation the rivals use historical myths, the evolution of the later will depend on mutual responses. Thus national historical myths are constructed in dialogue, contain voices of the others, and have “other” “authors” from within and from without the nation in addition to “own” dominant national ist elite. -
The Macedonian “Have” and “Be” Perfects
Chapter 4: Verbal Morphology The Macedonian “Have” and “Be” Perfects Olga Mišeska Tomić Macedonian is the only Slavic language with “have” perfects plus non-inflecting past participles that has reached what Heine and Kuteva would call “a fourth stage” of grammaticalization.1 Yet, alongside the “have” perfect, which developed as a result of language contact with non- Slavic Balkan languages, the “be” perfect inherited from Proto-Slavic, in which “be” auxiliaries combine with l-participles, is still being used in the language. Moreover, along with the “have” perfect plus invariable participles, a “be” perfect in which “be” auxiliaries combine with inflect- ing passive participles has been built up.2 Accordingly, there are three 1 Bernd Heine and Tania Kuteva, The Changing Language of Europe (Ox- ford/New York: Oxford University Press, 2006), p. 146. 2 These participles differ from the passive participles of other Slavic languag- es and Koneski and Friedman refer to them as “verbal adjectives,” while Lunt uses the term “-n/-t participles.” I stick to the term “passive participles” because they behave like the passive participles of many non-Slavic European languages (cf. 4.1 below).
