  • And Macedonia (Pp
    Summer 2018 - Greece (pp. 1-9) and Macedonia (pp. 9 -16) - Elly’s notes I traveled to Greece for a second summerschool (see here for the first). I left Arizona on a Monday morning and arrived in Thessaloniki on Tuesday afternoon before traveling on to Naxos on Wednesday. Thessaloniki is the second largest city in Greece and the capital of the Greek province of Macedonia. After Naxos, I would be traveling to the Republic of Macedonia which, under Greek pressure, may be changing its name to the Republic of Northern Macedonia (more below). Of course, some Greek nationalists don’t want the name Macedonia mentioned at all and some Macedonians don’t like the change either. When I was here, a scandal erupted of meddling by the Russians who don’t want this `deal’ either since it will pave the way for Macedonia to join NATO. Thessaloniki was built and rebuilt many times: it went from a pre-historic settlement to Macedonian, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman rule. Its fire in 1917 made it possible to plan a new city (see picture below). It was on the Via Egnatia (as is Ohrid) which connected Rome to Istanbul and is now a footpath. Old city walls are still around. Thessaloniki’s grid Typical building 1 More varied building styles Thessaloniki citywalls From Thessaloniki, I went to Naxos for the summer school (with some 35 participants some of whom are shown below). Naxos continues to be a wonderful place: lots of history, swimming, and hiking. Some highlights follow below. Summer school (these two pictures are by Kristel Fischer) 2 Moni Chrisostomou overlooks the chora of Naxos; two nuns remain in the monastery, which has a most beautiful church.

  • Portals and Doors in Traditional Ohrid Architecture
    PORTALS AND DOORS IN TRADITIONAL OHRID ARCHITECTURE Elena Nikoljski Panevski, Vladimir Karanakov ABSTRACT The basis for this scientific work is traditional Macedonian architecture, with emphasis on old doorway of family houses and religious objects (sacral and profane architecture). Ohrid has always been interesting for examination from these aspects, because of the fact that it has lots of historical monuments. The old part of the city contains houses, museums and churches which are one of the quality examples for traditional Macedonian architecture. The main purpose of this paper is to learn more about details in architecture, and of course, the value of details, especially old doors, portals, their dimensions, characteristics, art style, their constructors etc. This is because there is a lot of information originating from literature, books, study works and other written sources about Macedonian traditional architecture, but there is not much information about their details such as doors, windows, portals, etc. These beautiful, genius objects were built in the 19 th century. Today, they attract people who love art with its special charm and beauty, and inspire specialists - architects - for its contemporary application and creation, releasing it from fake values. There are many towns in Macedonia with well-preserved architecture dating from the 19 th century: Krushevo, Kratovo, Novo Selo, Tetovo, Debar, Struga, Prilep, Kriva Palanka, Strumica. Central place among them takes Ohrid, in particular ancient Lychinidos. REFERENCES Adorno, T. (1979): The theory of aestetics, Beograd. Aleksievska Hadzieva, J.

  • Macedonian Culture
    COUNCIL FOR RESEARCH INTO SOUTH-EASTERN EUROPE OF THE MACEDONIAN ACADEMY OF SCIENCES AND ARTS MACEDONIAN CULTURE Macedonian language, culture and art have been the basic factors which have established, moulded and confirmed the national identity of the Macedonian people over the centuries. Starting from the 9th century A.D. - when the creation of the Glagolitic alphabet and the literary standard language by Ss. Cyril and Methodius, based on South- Macedonian sub-dialects. marked the fateful moment of the civilized development of the Slav peoples - the Macedonian people, particularly with the activity of St. Clement of Ohrid and his Ohrid Literary School, developed a distinct culture, confirming their unique place among the Slav peoples and among the peoples in the Balkans and in Europe in general. During the last ten centuries, the Macedonian people lived under the domination of foreign empires - the Byzantine, Bulgarian, Serbian and the Ottoman Empires. In such circumstances, even though without any state mechanism and -care, the culture of the Macedonian people developed in several directions: through literature on the one hand, which , written in Old Church Slavonic, was cherished in the monasteries and churches, and into which more and more elements of the popular dialects penetrated, and, on the other, through the oral literature which developed in a vernacular language in the bosom of the Macedonian people, becoming, by its wealth of poems, tales, legends and traditions, proverbs and riddles, one of the richest popular literatures in Europe. The second direction is Macedonian building, as seen particularly in the numerous churches and monasteries, and frescoes and icons, which, originating from Byzantine art, increasingly affirmed the authentic features of the Macedonian people and its land.

    Research Project: New and Ambiguous Nation-Building Processes in South-Eastern Europe Working Paper Series THE POET ON THE BRIDGE IN THE BIBLICAL LAND: ETATIZATION OF ART THROUGH FESTIVALS AND BRAND-NATIONALISM IN THE REPUBLIC OF MACEDONIA Rozita Dimova http://www.oei.fu-berlin.de/nation-building/resources/wp/dimova_02 New and Ambiguous Nation-Building Processes in South-Eastern Europe http://www.oei.fu-berlin.de/en/projekte/nation-building The Poet on the Bridge in the Biblical Land: Etatization of Art through Festivals and Brand-Nationalism in the Republic of Macedonia1 Rozita Dimova, Free University – Berlin Introduction In his unfinished, posthumously-published Aesthetic Theory ( 1970/1997), Adorno elaborated on the relationship between art and reason (the rational). He argued that art is inevitably engaged in dialectic with reason in its various forms: as cognition, construction, technique, spiritualization, objectification etc (see also Nicholsen, 1997). Art overcomes the constraining and unreflective nature of rationality through the very act of expression of non- identity (the void) within itself and thus brings us closer to truth. The 'truth-value' of art arises from this ability to sustain "a discrepancy between its projected images (concepts) of nature and humankind, and its objects' actuality" (see also Held, 1980/1995, p. 82). In other words, art has a capacity to grasp truth(s), although in itself art is not an immediate truth.2 By arguing this, Adorno makes clear distinction between projected images and the objects’ actuality. The slice between these two domains, according to Adorno, creates the very dynamic in which art is considered as an autonomous field, a creative force able to grasp “truths” and to carry a strong critical perspective.
