    APPENDIX Lesson 1.: Introduction The Academy Awards, informally known as The Oscars, are a set of awards given annually for excellence of cinematic achievements. The Oscar statuette is officially named the Academy Award of Merit and is one of nine types of Academy Awards. Organized and overseen by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS),http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academy_Award - cite_note-1 the awards are given each year at a formal ceremony. The AMPAS was originally conceived by Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer studio executive Louis B. Mayer as a professional honorary organization to help improve the film industry’s image and help mediate labor disputes. The awards themselves were later initiated by the Academy as awards "of merit for distinctive achievement" in the industry. The awards were first given in 1929 at a ceremony created for the awards, at the Hotel Roosevelt in Hollywood. Over the years that the award has been given, the categories presented have changed; currently Oscars are given in more than a dozen categories, and include films of various types. As one of the most prominent award ceremonies in the world, the Academy Awards ceremony is televised live in more than 100 countries annually. It is also the oldest award ceremony in the media; its equivalents, the Grammy Awards (for music), the Emmy Awards (for television), and the Tony Awards (for theater), are modeled after the Academy Awards. The 85th Academy Awards were held on February 24, 2013 at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academy_Award Time of downloading: 10th January, 2013.

  • Introduction When the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes – from 1929 Kingdom of Yugoslavia – Was Formed in 1918, One of I
    Introduction When the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes – from 1929 Kingdom of Yugoslavia – was formed in 1918, one of its most important tasks was to forge a common collective identity. Intellectual elites in the young state with great optimism agreed that education would play a crucial role in this process. It should come as no surprise, then, that a relatively rich tradition of scholarly research into the representation of collective identities in Yugoslav education has originated, precisely to account for the failure of the Yugoslav project in the long term. Recently, a growing body of scholarly research has established textbooks as one of the more rewarding sources for studying collective identity in education, focusing on ‘what knowledge is included and rejected in ... textbooks, and how the transmission of this selected knowledge often attempts to shape a particular form of national memory, national identity and national consciousness’.1 For the Yugoslav case this emerging research field so far has primarily examined textbooks which were used in the period directly preceding, during and following the disintegration of Yugoslavia.2 However, as the present article hopes to illustrate, textbook analysis can also provide the historian with interesting new elements for the study of collective identities in Yugoslavia’s more distant past. With its focus on national identity in Serbian, Croatian and Slovenian textbooks before the First World War, and later also in interwar Yugoslavia, the work of Charles Jelavich still occupies a somewhat

  • GAVELLA U PROLOGU Darko Gašparović
    GAVELLA U PROLOGU Darko Gašparović 1. Prvi broj kazališnoga časopisa Prolog1 izašao je u travnju 1968., kad se bilo navršilo šest godina od smrti Branka Gavelle, redatelja i mislioca teatra koji je bitno obilježio razvoj hrvatskoga glumišta u razdoblju od 1920. pa sve do sedamdesetih godina 20. stoljeća. Donju granicu njegova ključnog utjecaja postavljamo na godine neposredno poslije Prvoga svjetskog rata. Pitanje je zašto, kad znamo da je svoju prvu režiju, tragediju Messin- ska vjerenica Friedricha Schillera, bio ostvario u Hrvatskome narodnom kazalištu 1914. godine.2 Zbog izbijanja Prvoga svjetskog rata, unovačenja i odlaska na galicijsko bojište, Gavella se u kazalište kao redatelj vratio tek u kasnu jesen 1917. kad postavlja komediju u tri čina Alfreda de Musseta 1 Izdavač je bio Sveučilišni odbor SSJ, a uredništvo su činili mahom dvadeseto godišnjaci, od najmlađega, brucoša filozofije i anglistike Slobodana Šnajdera, do najstarijega, redatelja Mire Međimorca s dvadeset pet godina. Osta- li su članovi uredništva bili kritičar i esejist Darko Gašparović, prozaik Drago Kekanović, publicist Vladimir Roksandić i student glume Ante Rumora (glavni urednik). 2 Premijera je bila 19. III. 1914., a do 28. IV. nanizale su se svega tri izvedbe. 321 Svijećnjak.3 Do tada je zagrebačkom scenom suvereno vladao Josip Bach, koji je režirao većinu predstava, ujedno obnašajući dužnost ravnatelja Drame. Otada pa sve do kraja godine 1924., kad odlazi u Beograd na mjesto ravnatelja i redatelja Drame Narodnoga pozorišta, Gavella se postupno nametnuo ključnom figurom hrvatske režije u tome razdoblju, uz već spomenutoga Bacha i Ivu Raića, koji je udario temelje modernoj režiji u Hrvatskoj postavkom Shakespeareova Koriolana 1909.4 To je doba kad još uvijek mladi predratni doktor bečke filozofije i kazališni kritičar u dnevniku na njemačkome jeziku Agramer Tagblatt koji se potpisivao šifrom – ll režira svoje prve značajne i stilski samosvojne predstave u zagrebačkome HNK-u, što će kulminaciju imati u suradnji s mladim dramatičarom Miroslavom Krležom.

  • Investment Opportunity in Investment Opportunity in Motovun Area
    Investment opportunity in Motovun area Motovun Situated in the center of heart-shaped Istria, one of the best-developed tourist regions and the biggest peninsula in Croatia, is the humble municipality of Motovun. Such location makes it close to other well-known tourist hotspots at the coast while keeping a more peaceful and easy-going surrounding. Poreč, Pula, and Rijeka are less than an hour's drive away and the nearest sea is less than 30 minutes' drive away. Situated in the heart of the peninsula, with mountain Učka on the east, the Adriatic Sea on the west and the river Mirna flowing through it, Motovun area has a unique continental climate with 4 distinct seasons. Old Motovun town, or Montona, is the best-preserved medieval town in Istria and dates to the 12th century A.D. Motovun sits atop the 277-meter high hill and is the center of Motovun municipality. While the whole municipality has a little over 1000 residents, it has more than 400 000 tourists a year who enjoy in what Motovun municipality offers. 1 Architecture The old town of Motovun is the best-preserved medieval town in Istria. The towers and city gates contain elements of Romanesque, Gothic, and Renaissance styles. The outer fortification wall, built in the 13th century, remains mostly intact to this day. The parish church of St. Stephen erected in place of an older church where, as the legend says, the margrave Engelbert of Istria and his wife countess Matilda were buried. Due to the mannerist elements of its façade, Motovuners consider it built after the design of the famous Venetian architect Andrea Palladio.

  • Redatelj Koji Vlada Scenom Branko Gavella I Modernizacija Slovenskog Kazališta
    REDATELJ KOJI VLADA SCENOM BRANKO GAVELLA I MODERNIZACIJA SLOVENSKOG KAZALIŠTA Primož Jesenko Uloga Branka Gavelle (1885. – 1962.) na prostoru nekadašnje Jugo­ slavije, u Ljubljani, Zagrebu i u Beogradu, glavnim kazališnim središtima u tadašnjoj zajedničkoj državi, velika je, i bila je u zapisima Dušana Moravca i Filipa Kalana, Nikole Batušića i Georgija Para, već i znanstveno objašnjena. U godinama između 1920. i 1926., prijelaznim godinama između amaterskih nastojanja i umjetničkog kazališta, umjetnička razina slovenskog kazališta nije bila zavidna. Publika je tražila svoje i ako to nije dobila, u sve se većoj mjeri otuđivala, piše Moravec. Tako danas znamo da je Gavellin sistem režije bio ključan za idejno-estetsku i stilsku europeizaciju jugoslavenskog kazališta, za »prijelom iz romantičnog klasicizma u plemeniti realizam«.1 U Ljubljani je, u međuratnom razdoblju, utjecaj na stil slovenskog kazališta i njegov repertoar kao izvedbeni uzor imao Narodni divadlo iz Praga, a slabije su tragove ostavila kazališta iz 1 Lojze Filipič, Doktor Branko Gavella (Spominske reminiscence njegovega učenca).

U to je doba Gavella isprva bio gostujući redatelj u Narodnom gledališču u Ljubljani, zatim redovni član redateljskog zbora, a poslije oslobođenja nakratko i pedagog za režiju na ljubljanskoj Akademiji za igralsko umetnost (AIU). Odobrenje Ministarstva za prosvjetu u Beogradu 1930. godine, koje se odnosilo na Gavellino »povremeno« režiranje u Ljubljani, osigurao je dopis Otona Župančiča, ondašnjeg ravnatelja Drame i Opere Narodnog kazališta u Ljubljani. (Zbog šestojanuarske diktature 1929. Gavella napušta Beograd.) Razlog za Župančičev prijedlog bio je manjak redatelja u Narodnom kazalištu u Ljubljani, jednako kao i stagnirajući estetski monopol dotadašnjih nositelja dramske režije Osipa Šesta, Cirila Debevca ili Milana Skrbinšeka, što je dovelo do inflacije raznovrsnosti u repertoaru.

  • An Early Concept of the Theatre of Interplay: the Relevance of Branko Gavella's Theory for the Development of Performance Phil
    PERFORMANCE PHILOSOPHY AN EARLY CONCEPT OF THE THEATRE OF INTERPLAY: THE RELEVANCE OF BRANKO GAVELLA’S THEORY FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF PERFORMANCE PHILOSOPHY1 SIBILA PETLEVSKI UNIVERSITY OF ZAGREB Branko Gavella (1885–1962), a well-known Croatian theatre director of late modernity, had a significant impact on ex-Yugoslav theatrical life. However, it is important to stress the fact that Gavella’s formative years were spent in Austro-Hungarian cultural milieu: he defended a doctoral thesis in the field of epistemology under the title Die Erkenntnistheoretische Bedeutung des Urteils [The Epistemological Significance of Judgment] in Vienna in the year 1908, then he started contributing theatre reviews to Agramer Tagblatt in 1910, and he put his first theatrical production—Schiller’s The Bride of Messina—on the stage of Croatian National Theatre in Zagreb, in the year of 1914. Gavella had conceived the conceptual gist of his theoretical work in the early thirties (see Gavella 1934a, 1934b, 1934c), and it is beyond any doubt that his anticipatory theoretical insights into the phenomenon of acting make him a pioneer in the modern, and to a certain anticipatory degree, in the postmodern field of performance philosophy. Upon thoroughly reading the available material—Gavella’s theoretical essays and fragments posthumously collected under the title Glumac i kazalište [Actor and Theatre]; exploring the wider context of his thought on theatre aesthetics as presented in the articles and pieces published in various periodicals and in his books Književnost i kazalište [Literature and Theatre] and Hrvatsko glumište [Croatian Stage]— we have for the first time extrapolated the theoretical and philosophical level of Gavella’s approach to theatre performance, publishing our findings in 2001.

  • Epilogue in 1945 the Croatian Writer Vladimir Nazor
    EPILOGUE In 1945 the Croatian writer Vladimir Nazor (1876–1949), who joined the Partisans at the end of 1942, wrote a poem entitled ‘Poems of the Fist’, in which he declared that the Croats were not Goths but ‘an ancient fragment of Slavdom.’ Whoever dared to claim differently, Nazor wrote, would ‘feel our fist.’1 After the collapse of the NDH in May 1945, the new communist authorities soon turned Nazor’s threat of violence against the proponents of the non-Slavic theories of Croat origin into actual policy. The leading proponent of the Gothic theory, the 78 year-old historian and Catholic priest Kerubin Šegvić, was sentenced to death, and subsequently executed, by a Yugoslav military court, on the grounds that his theory on ‘the non-Slavic origin of the Croats’ was designed to ‘demolish Slavic unity’ and ‘incite national hatred among the peoples of Yugoslavia.’2 In spite of its theoretical adherence to Marxist internationalism, the lead- ership of the new Yugoslav state under Josip Broz Tito (1892–1980) also strongly promoted the racial-supranational ideologies of pan-Slavism and Yugoslavism, at least in the early period of its rule. Belgrade was chosen as the site of the Soviet ‘Pan-Slav Congress’ held in December 1946, because Marshal Tito was regarded as Stalin’s most ‘trusted communist fighter’, while ‘the Yugoslavs were regarded as the second ranking Slav nation’ after the Soviet Union. At the end of his opening speech at the Congress, Tito made a ‘three-fold toast, to Slav solidarity, to our greatest Slav brother, the Soviet Union [and] to its leader of genius, Stalin.’3 Theories of the non-Slav origin of the Croats were not officially welcome in Yugoslav academic and political life.

  • Zbornik Tito
    17 Ivo Goldstein e Tito-Stalin Split of 1948 as a Personal Conict ¹e conÇict in 1948 was quite complex and stratiÀed – it was ideological and political, with obvious economic roots and consequences. Nevertheless, it was also personal beca- use it was a conÇict between two charismatic personalities – Josip Broz Tito and Ioseb Besarionis dze Jughashvili - Stalin. In modern historiography, di½erent terms are used for the events of 1948: the split between Yugoslavia and the Eastern Bloc, or the Yugoslav-Soviet split, but also the Ti- to-Stalin split, for quite obvious reasons. I am not an adherent of the 19 century historical concept of Leopold Ranke, who views the development of the main historical processes as a struggle between key histo- rical persons, as he shows in his emblematic work Die römischen Päpste, ihre Kirche und ihr Staat im sechzehnten und siebzehnten Jahrhundert ( e Popes of Rome, eir Church and State in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries), in which he o½ers colorful portrayals of Pope Paul IV, Ignatius of Loyola and Pope Pius V. Despite all my reluctance, it has to be said that the roles of Tito and Stalin, the key personalities in the events of 1948, were essential. One can compare these events with those 20 years later – can anybody say that the invasion of Czechoslovakia and the crushing of the Prague Spring was a consequence of a Brezhnev-Dubcek conÇict? ¹e conÇict of 1948 was very much personalized. Latinka Perović observes that “at a juridical and at a symbolic level, Tito was Yugoslavia and Yugoslavia was Tito.”1 Nee- dless to say, Stalin was the Soviet Union and the Soviet Union was Stalin.
