Illyrian Religion and Nation As Zero Institution
Studies in Visual Arts and Communication: an international journal Vol 3, No 1 (2016) on-line ISSN 2393 - 1221 Illyrian religion and nation as zero institution Josipa Lulić * Abstract The main theoretical and philosophical framework for this paper are Louis Althusser's writings on ideology, and ideological state apparatuses, as well as Rastko Močnik’s writings on ideology and on the nation as the zero institution. This theoretical framework is crucial for deconstructing some basic tenants in writing on the religious sculpture in Roman Dalmatia, and the implicit theoretical constructs that govern the possibilities of thought on this particular subject. This paper demonstrates how the ideological construct of nation that ensures the reproduction of relations of production of modern societies is often implicitly or explicitly projected into the past, as trans-historical construct, thus soliciting anachronistic interpretations of the material remains of past societies. This paper uses the interpretation of religious sculpture in Roman Dalmatia as a case study to stress the importance of the critique of ideology in the art history. The religious sculpture in Roman Dalmatia has been researched almost exclusively through the search for the presumed elements of Illyrian religion in visual representations; the formulation of the research hypothesis was firmly rooted into the idea of nation as zero institution, which served as the default framework for various interpretations. In this paper I try to offer some alternative interpretations, intending not to give definite answers, but to open new spaces for research. Keywords: Roman sculpture, province of Dalmatia, nation as zero institution, ideology, Rastko Močnik, Louis Althusser. -
Programme Diversity of the Most Influential TV
PROGRAMME DIVERSITY OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL TV-CHANNELS IN MACEDONIA, CROATIA AND SLOVENIA Programme Diversity of the Most Influential TV-Channels in Macedonia, Croatia and Slovenia COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE COMMERCIAL TERRESTRIAL TV-CHANNELS ON NATIONAL LEVEL PROGRAMME DIVERSITY OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL TV-CHANNELS IN MACEDONIA, CROATIA AND SLOVENIA Authors: Vesna Nikodinoska, Marina Tuneva and Slavco Milenkovski 1. INTRODUCTION The largest commercial terrestrial TV-channels on national level in Macedonia continue to represent a dominant source of information for the audience; hence, they continue to exert the greatest influence on the public opinion. Therefore, on one hand, it imposes expectations that the programme they offer to the viewers should reflect quality and diversity of content, and at the same time, it should set high standards for practitioners working in TV-channels, but on the other hand, they should promote democratic values and professional principles,1 so as to advance the development of the broadcasting industry. The quality of the media content is not an obligation explicitly regulated by law; however, the national commercial TV- channels, as the most viewed and the most influential, are expected to show a sense of social responsibility and work for the public interest, since they themselves are users of public resources. Under free market conditions, the competition with quality content should serve as additional stimulation to the rivalry in the broadcasting area and as “bait” for attracting advertisers. That is -

LINGUA MONTENEGRINA, god. XIII/1, br. 25, Cetinje, 2020. Fakultet za crnogorski jezik i književnost UDK 070:929Bettiza E. Izvorni naučni rad Josip MILETIĆ (Zadar) University of Zadar [email protected] Tea TEREZA VIDOVIĆ-SCHREIBER (Split) University of Split [email protected] DALMATIA – BETTIZA’S LOST HOMELAND The paper analyses the potential of Bettiza’s fiction for the deve- lopment of Croatian and Italian cultural relations as well as tourist promotion of the Croatian historical region of Dalmatia. Particular attention is focused on the novel Exile, in which the author writes a family chronicle by evoking his Split roots. At the same time, he describes the atmosphere, customs and picturesque figures of Dal- matian towns in the interwar period, the encounter of Slavic and Roman culture, as well as the destiny of the Italian population there who, due to the turmoil of war and socialist revolution, decided to leave their homeland. Reception of Bettiza’s work, as an account of an individual history that is completely different from the written (national), the collective history, can positively affect the Italian perception of Dalmatia as a tourist destination, and it can improve the distorted image of Croats living there, which has been created for decades in Italy, through the activist action of extreme groups, therefore it can be of multiple use. Proving that not all Italians for- cibly left their former homeland, but that a part of them left freely seeking a better life for themselves and their families not seeing any perspective in the upcoming communism, allows for the constructi- on of bridges between Slavic and Roman culture, and an even better and more effective tourism promotion of this Croatian region in the context of Italian tourist interests. -
The Influence of Islam on Albanian Culture
The Influence of Islam on Albanian Culture Fatmir Shehu ∗ Abstract This paper examines the influence of Islam on Albanian culture. The Islamization process of the Albanian culture was very crucial for the Albanians themselves as it gave them a new identity, which they lacked since their settlement on the Adriatic shores. According to history, Albanians, the biggest Muslim nation dwelling in the Balkans, South-East of Europe, are believed to be the descendents of the ancient Illyrians, who settled in Europe around 2500 years ago. They lived a social life based on tribalism, where every tribe had established its own cultural system and way of life. Thus, their cultural differences disallowed them to unite. Such situation did not change, even when Christianity was introduced to them. Because, Christianity came to Albania through two great dominations: Christian Catholics of Vatican (the Northern part of Albanian) and Christian Orthodox of Greece (the Southern part of Albania). The continuous religious and political suppression faced by the Albanians from their Byzantine and Latin masters enabled them to be the first people of the Balkans, who welcomed openheartedly the Ottoman Muslims and embraced Islam as their new way of life in the 15th century. The study focuses on the following issues: (1) Historical background of Albania and Albanians; (2) The genesis of Albanian culture; and (3) The process of integration between Islamic culture and Albanian culture. This research attempts to provide important findings, which will be very helpful to the Muslims and others. Abstrak Karya ini mengkaji pengaruhan Islam terhadap budaya Albania. Proses pengislaman budaya Albania adalah amat penting kepada orang-orang Albania sendiri kerana ia telah memberi mereka suatu identiti baru yang mereka kekurangan sejak penempatan mereka di pesisiran Adriatic. -
