Stanic Goran The Roma Between the Self and the Other: Representations of the Roma in Yugoslavian and Serbian Narrative Film Goran Stanic Faculty of Arts and Sciences Edge Hill University This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY March 2019 Goran Stanic Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The Roma Between the Self and the Other: Representations of the Roma in Yugoslavian and Serbian Narrative Film ABSTRACT The present thesis focuses on the representations of the Roma minority in Yugoslavian and Serbian narrative film. As a corpus-based study (with the total of 35 films divided into seven periods running from 1945 to 2010), it examines in detail the representational strategies employed in depicting the filmic Roma, and aims to specify a developmental trajectory that these strategies take. To this end, a two-step analytical procedure is used: (1) Information Structure Analysis, the analytical framework developed by the present author for the purposes of studying narrative representations, makes use of the diegetic domain categories (Topic/Focus; Active/Passive/Perceiver) as well as the meta-diegetic domain categories (Frame Setter) in order to identify the narrative signals deployed in the construction of minority representations. (2) Narrative-Semiotic Analysis is concerned with the specifics of the representational content. It takes as input the findings of the Information Structure Analysis and investigates more closely the narrative roles and plot units that the Roma are assigned in the film narratives. The representational strategies identified in the project fall into three types: Roma as interactants, indices of socio‐psychological patterns, and meta‐textual devices. The developmental path that emerges reveals a predominance of indexical representations and interactants as modified character types (the latter exemplified by such literary and filmic staples as The Fool/Jester) between 1945 and 1960; this is followed by a slow transition from the ideologically-constrained interactant representations in the 1960s to socially critical and oftentimes didactic representations in the early 2000s. The Yugoslavian New Film period (1960-1972) ushered in meta-textual roles, in which the Roma characters intervene in the filmic text from an interpretively privileged and causally separate narrative position, formulating a varyingly explicit criticism of the public image-oriented Yugoslavian politics of the day. This representational strategy has been found to decrease in number and change focus in the last two periods, thematizing broader issues such as individuality, emotionality, and the nature of relationships. Lastly, the archetype of the Roma musician is posited as the most frequent and salient representation based on the analyses of the corpus. KEY WORDS: Roma, representation, Yugoslavian, Serbian, index, interactant, Frame Setter, meta-textuality, emotion, musician. 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I have many people to thank for helping me in various ways in my work on this thesis. Living on Edge Hill campus brought me together with some of the most interesting people I have met and had the good fortune to become friends with. Here's to you - Rowan, Gulsha (& Yusuf!), Elisha, Peiman, Lara, Wilson, Donelle, Niro, Lina, Sara, and Jess! It's been a pleasure being your neighbour, friend, and partner in 'expatiations'! I would also like to thank my many friends from afar - Dequan, Yunwei, Braelyn, and Lina have all brought a new perspective on my life (alongside some excellent Chinese and Korean food!). I have also been lucky to gain friends in my Department as well. Thank you to Tonya, Anthony, and Connor for the many walks, talks, and meals, and for putting up with my propensity towards endless analyses! One of the experiences that has truly changed me is being part of the Philosophy Reading and Discussion Groups, convened by Dr Leon Culbertson. Thank you to Chris, Eri, and Craig for so many stimulating conversations, and a very special thanks to Leon, who has turned our intellectual world upside down, and demonstrated the flaws of scientism and neuro-centrism in a remarkably powerful and engaging way. My friends from Belgrade have been by my side longer than I care to acknowledge, but I count myself lucky to have been in their company. Thank you to Sergej, Anja, and especially Jovana, for finding the time and the right words! My Hang has travelled by my side for a precious while, and I am grateful for all the good that she has brought, and would like to acknowledge it here. The same goes for my friendship with Sara, whose stunning creativity and lust for life have been energizing me since I met her. My greatest debt of gratitude goes to my Supervisory Team. Ruxandra and Owen have both provided countless nuanced comments and suggestions - the little pearls of academic wisdom that have provoked me into thinking differently about my work. Ruxandra I have to thank for striking the right note in her work with me - skilfully pointing out ways to improve the project, yet never micro-managing it. A heartfelt thank you to all! 3 Table of Contents 1 INTRODUCTION – THE ROMA IN HISTORY AND IMAGINATION ................................. 8 2 PRELIMINARIES: REPRESENTATIONS AND THE FILMIC ROMA ................................ 15 2.1 Introduction – film, representation, and the communicative situation ......... 15 2.1.1 Realism vs. representation – controversies in the ontology of film ......... 16 2.1.2 The viewer and his ideology – the psychoanalysis of film .............................. 17 2.1.3 Engaging psychoanalysis – Cultural Studies and cognitivism ...................... 19 2.1.4 Engaging the linguistic turn – The New Materiality of Film ........................... 22 2.1.5 Representation in film ‐ Conclusions .......................................................................... 23 2.2 Roma representations in Yugoslavian and Serbian film – Critical findings . 2 4 2.2.1 The narrative-symbolic role of the Roma ....................................................................... 24 2.2.2 The typical Roma representations in Yugoslavian and Serbian film .................. 29 2.2.3 Critical findings on the Roma as regulators of textual meaning ........................... 36 3 THE RESEARCH QUESTIONS, CORPUS, AND THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK ........ 39 3.1 Introduction ...................................................................................................................................... 39 3.2.

  • Jewish Communities in the Political and Legal Systems of Post-Yugoslav Countries
    TRAMES, 2017, 21(71/66), 3, 251–271 JEWISH COMMUNITIES IN THE POLITICAL AND LEGAL SYSTEMS OF POST-YUGOSLAV COUNTRIES Boris Vukićević University of Montenegro Abstract. After the dissolution of Yugoslavia, the Jewish community within Yugoslavia was also split up, and now various Jewish communities exist in the seven post-Yugoslav countries. Although all of these communities are relatively small, their size, influence, and activity vary. The political and legal status of Jewish communities, normatively speaking, differs across the former Yugoslav republics. Sometimes Jews or Jewish communities are mentioned in constitutions, signed agreements with governments, or are recognized in laws that regulate religious communities. Despite normative differences, they share most of the same problems – a slow process of return of property, diminishing numbers due to emigra- tion and assimilation, and, although on a much lower scale than in many other countries, creeping anti-Semitism. They also share the same opportunities – a push for more minority rights as part of ‘Europeanization’ and the perception of Jewish communities as a link to influential investors and politicians from the Jewish diaspora and Israel. Keywords: Jewish communities, minority rights, post-communism, former Yugoslavia DOI: https://doi.org/10.3176/tr.2017.3.04 1. Introduction In 1948, the first postwar census in Yugoslavia counted 6,538 people of Jewish nationality, although many Jews identified as other nationalities (e.g. Croat, Serb) in the census while identifying religiously as Jewish, as seen by the fact that Jewish municipalities (or communities) across Yugoslavia had 11,934 members (Boeckh 2006:427). The number of Jews in Yugoslavia decreased in the following years after the foundation of the State of Israel.

  • Juxtaposition and Improvement in Retranslating “Romeo and Juliet” Into Albanian to Be Downloaded from Commentary 2 in LCPJ
    Kadija, Refik 2014: Juxtaposition and Improvement in Retranslating “Romeo and Juliet” into Albanian To be downloaded from www.lcpj.pro Commentary 2 in LCPJ Juxtaposition and Improvement in Retranslating “Romeo and Juliet” into Albanian [Paper submitted at the International Symposium “Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet in European Culture” held at the University of Murcia (Spain) from 19 to 21 November 2014.] The tragedy “Romeo and Juliet” was first translated into Albanian some sixty years ago by Alqi Kristo. Until October 2014 it was the only translation of “Romeo and Juliet” that existed in Albanian. Although Kristo was not an English graduate and was basically self-taught in English, this first translation has certainly undeniable merits. The Albanian text was used for reading by the university students for several decades. It was used as the basic text for the production of this tragedy on stage. It was first produced in 1964 by the students of the Drama School of the Academy of Arts in Tirana. It was then produced in March 2011 by Teatri Metropolitan “Shekspir” in Tirana. This first translation was published several times in separate and collected editions in Albania and Kosova (Kosovo). Reassessment of Shakespeare’s Works in Albania I started the retranslation of the tragedy “Romeo and Juliet” into Albanian in January 2014 and finished it on July 5th 2014. This second Albanian translation of “Romeo and Juliet” was published in October 2014. The retranslation of the tragedy “Romeo and Juliet” was undertaken for several reasons: Volume 7/2, 2014 79 © LCPJ Publishing Kadija, Refik 2014: Juxtaposition and Improvement in Retranslating “Romeo and Juliet” into Albanian To be downloaded from www.lcpj.pro • I have been teaching English Literature for more than forty-five years at Albanian universities.

  • Bekim Fehmiu and (Yugoslav) Albanian Identity
    Bekim Fehmiu and (Yugoslav) Albanian Identity By Bruce Williams Spring 2007 Issue of KINEMA DOUBLE EAGLE, DOUBLE INDEMNITY: BEKIM FEHMIU AND (YUGOSLAV) ALBA- NIAN IDENTITY ”ONCE upon a time there was a country, and its capital was Belgrade.” These opening words of Kusturica’s Underground (1995) allow us to reflect on the apparent unity forged by Tito in Yugoslavia and the notion, however fleeting, of Yugoslav cinema. As Dina Iordanova asserts, this statement at once foregrounds Kus- turica’s claim that Yugoslav union had been ”an artificial political construction built on lies and mutual betrayal” (Iordanova 2002, 83), and evokes an undeniable nostalgia for the defunct state. In wake of the bombardment of Dubrovnik, the wars in Bosnia and Kosovo, and unrest in Macedonia, we recall with certain fondness an era in which Yugoslavia provided a peaceful and accessible portal between East and West. The ambivalence of Kusturica’s stance recalls Edward Said’s reconsideration of the relationship of divergent communities to the ever-fluctuating nation-state, an argument which has provided a theoretical framework for recent re-figurations of the notion of national cinema by such critics as Mette Hjort, Scott Mackensie, Andrew Higson, and Ian Jarvie. These new scholarly debates have explored national cinema from the loci of production, reception (both local and international), and critical assessment. Iordanova’s seminal study, Cinema of Flames: Balkan Film, Culture and the Media, pluralizes the turf of the national, and examines the phenomenon of national cinematic voice in the context of the complex cultural entity known as the Balkans, which she argues is widely defined by ”shared Byzantine, Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian legacies andby the specific marginal positioning of the region in relation to the western part of the European continent” (2001, 6).

For more information, please contact us at [email protected] or visit our website at www.contemporarysee.org The Other Side of Socialism: History and Cinematic Memory of Socialism Nevena Daković The aim of this paper is to explore the cinematic history and memory of socialism and broadly of Yugoslavia throughout XXth century as narrativised and represented in the films of Mila Turajlić Cinema Komunisto (2010) and The Other Side of Everything (Druga strana svega, 2017). Accordingly the cinematic texts are understood as: 1) the texts of cultural memory that construct the remembrance of the past and history of Yugoslavia; 2) as cinematic lieux de memoire or field of tensions of memory and history, textual and metatextual layers, fiction and faction; 3) as texts that brilliantly perform the turn from “film about history” to being a “memory-making film” while keeping the two facets. The two case studies are contextualized within the previous tradition of Yugoslav cinema as well as within the larger group of archive films made in 2010s. Keywords: visual memory, cinematic representation, history, Yugoslavia Introduction “History is memory seen through and criticized with the aid of documents of many kinds - written, aural, and visual.

CEU eTD Collection i Abstract The content of my thesis will present the analysis of three Yugoslav war films from the 1960s that they offer different views on World War II as a moment of creation of the state that aimed towards supranationalism and classlessness. I will analyse the films in terms of their production, iconography and reception as to show that although the Yugoslav government, led by a great cinephile Josip Broz Tito, demonstrated interest in the war film genre, there were opposing filmmakers‟ views on what WWII should represent in the Yugoslav history and collective mythology. By using the concept of historiophoty I will demonstrate that the war films represented the failure of Yugoslav government in integrating different nations into a supranational Yugoslav society in which conflicts between different social agents (the state, workers and peasants) will finally be resolved.
