  • Montenegro Old and New: History, Politics, Culture, and the People
    60 ZuZana Poláčková; Pieter van Duin Montenegro Old and New: History, Politics, Culture, and the People The authors are focusing on how Montenegro today is coming to terms with the task of becoming a modern European nation, which implies recognition not only of democracy, the rule of law, and so forth, but also of a degree of ‘multiculturalism’, that is recognition of the existence of cultural, ethnic, linguistic and religious minorities in a society that is dominated by a Slavic Orthodox majority. In his context they are analyzing the history of the struggle of the Montenegrin people against a host of foreign invaders – after they had ceased to be invaders themselves – and especially their apparently consistent refusal to accept Ottoman sovereignty over their homeland seemed to make them the most remarkable freedom fighters imaginable and led to the creation of a special Montenegrin image in Europe. This im- age of heroic stubbornness and unique martial bravery was even consciously cultivated in Western and Central Europe from the early nineteenth century onwards, as the Greeks, the Serbs, the Montenegrins and other Balkan peoples began to resist the Ottoman Empire in a more effective way and the force of Romantic nationalism began to influence the whole of Europe, from German historians to British politi- cians, and also including Montenegrin and Serbian poets themselves. And what about the present situa- tion? The authors of this essay carried out an improvised piece of investigation into current conditions, attitudes, and feelings on both the Albanian and the Slavic-Montenegrin side (in September 2012). key words: Montenegro; history; multiculturalism; identity; nationalism; Muslim; Orthodox Montenegro (Crna Gora, Tsrna Gora, Tsernagora) is a small country in the Western Balkans region with some 625,000 inhabitants,1 which became an independent nation in 2006 and a can- didate-member of the EU in 2010.

SUMMARY The Amphitheater is located in the “heart” of the historic city center of Dürres (called Epidamnos by the Greeks and Dyrrachium by the Roman): Erected in the beginning of 2nd century AD, perhaps late period of Trajan (98 – 117 AD) or early period of Hadrian (117–138 AD) 1. It is one of the largest amphitheatres in the Balkans (8.600m2 approx.); two others are Salona and Pula (both in Croatia), its capacity was between 20000 and 26000 people. This monument, discovered in the sixties of last century, is the largest architectural monument discovered in Dürres and the only one of this type found so far in Albania. Undoubtedly, this is an important cultural and historical heritage building in urgent need of release conditions of buildings and urban infrastructure, archaeological excavation, consolidation, restoration, and together with the surrounding area and other close heritage buildings (for example the byzantine fortified walls), recovery and proper integration into the city.
